Is OpenSUSE really good to programming?

Hello everybody!
My name is Alberto and I’m from Argentina.
I have my computer running OpenSUSE 11.4 with KDE desktop. I have a question… Is OpenSUSE with KDE desktop really good to programming?
I mean to process of compiling (for the dependences…)

I want programming on C, C++, Java and Python.

I before used Ubuntu with Gnome desktop, but the dependences to install aren’t equals between OpenSUSE and Ubuntu.

I wait your answers :slight_smile:

P.D.: I don’t speak English natively, if somebody know speak/write Spanish you can doing :slight_smile:
P.D2.: I want your answer if you speak English, I understand some things :smiley:

Yo he levantado entornos de desarrollo tanto en Ubuntu, Fedora como en openSUSE y creo que la principal diferencia ha sido versiones de aplicaciones en repos (IDE, CASE, app servers), forma de configurar variables de entorno ($PATH, $JAVA_HOME) y rutas donde encontrar las instalaciones.

Sigue siendo un tema de comodidad en la distro que te guste pues con todas puedes lograr el mismo entorno.

Gracias por tu respuesta faco84 :slight_smile:
Aunque estuve pensando tener dos distros en el equipo (una partición con OpenSUSE y la otra con otra a la que me venga cómoda).
OpenSUSE me gusta en KDE me gusta, se me hace bonito y amigable :slight_smile:

Gracias de nuevo por tu respuesta, espero que alguien más responda :stuck_out_tongue:

Hi Alberto,

I’ve never had any trouble programming in openSUSE, and I used all four of
those languages to some extent. But I haven’t had problems programming in
any GNU/Linux distro that I’ve used.

Everything you need should be in the repositories: GCC, GDB, JDK, etc.

Just try it out, if there are problems you can always ask here and
someone will be ready to help you.


Regards,
Barry D. Nichols

welcome! i am glad you got good help from faco84 in your lingo…

you are always welcome here, and all languages are welcome here, but may
be more comfortable for you in our associated Spanish language forum, here:

http://www.forosuse.org/forosuse/

book mark it, some of the folk here are also over there…

If you want to limit yourself to those languages, you should not have any problems – I’ve programmed in C++ for about 13 years using openSUSE. Successfully.

openSUSE is by far the best choice (it does NOT mean it is a good choice) because of ease of use, and rolling release capability. Meaning, you can easily focus on programming, not constantly re-install software and tweaking.

One note – on English-speaking forum assume speaking in English.

Sorry for reply later! :expressionless: but thanks to all you for reply me! :slight_smile:

so does OpenSuse have any pre-packaged IDEs? :\

Of course:
KDevelop, Eclipse, Qt-Creator, Emacs ;), NetBeans, Monodevelop, Eric, Codeblocks, Anjuta, …

Just have a look in YaST or at: software.opensuse.org: Search

By pre-prackaged, if you mean the ISOs then I doubt whether live ISO has
an IDEs . You may have few IDEs on DVD.
Also you need to specify the language for which you want to use the IDE.
For what language do you want to use the IDE ?


GNOME 3.6.2
openSUSE Release 12.3 (Dartmouth) 64-bit
Kernel Linux 3.7.10-1.16-desktop

… just needs a decent editor :D.

I’d also add Geany to the list.
