Code::Blocks is a free open source cross platform C, C++ and Fortran Integrated Developing Environment (IDE)
The open source, cross platform, free C, C++ and Fortran Integrated Developing Environment.
Code::Blocks is a free C, C++ and Fortran IDE built to meet the most demanding needs of its users. It is designed to be very extensible and fully configurable.
Finally, an IDE with all the features you need, having a consistent look, feel and operation across platforms.
Built around a plugin framework, Code::Blocks can be extended with plugins. Any kind of functionality can be added by installing/coding a plugin. For instance, compiling and debugging functionality is already provided by plugins!
Special credits go to darmar for his great work on the FortranProject plugin, bundled since release 13.12.
We hope you enjoy using Code::Blocks!

Build system
Code::Blocks implements a custom build system with very important features: ultra-fast dependencies generation, build queues and parallel builds are the most important ones to mention.
Debugging
The debugging subsystem has been greatly enhanced in the latest version. Automatic/manual watches, code/data breakpoints, call stack, disassembly listing and memory dumps are only few of its features.
