I actually don't really like Eclipse neither, especially its intricate initial process. But sometimes, aside from Visual Studio, I think there's not really many good IDE for C++, even though CDT is not really ideal.

I had good experiences with the CodeLite IDE on Windows and Linux, although it took some time to set it up initially for FLTK or any other project. CMake is able to generate CodeLite IDE files, although the result from FLTK's CMake files is suboptimal. But it works.

Meanwhile I switched to Visual Studio Code (VS Code) by Microsoft (open source on GitHub) which is also cross platform and works really like an IDE in many aspects.

You can use a build environment generated by CMake (I'm using CMake, but you can also use Makefiles) to build and test with a really good visual (GUI) debugger interface.

I'm really impressed how well this works but I tested so far only on Linux. The Windows version should certainly work fine as well I think (after all it's mainly developed by Microsoft).

Just my 2 ct.
