I own Visual Studio 2005 and the wonderful add-on "Visual Assist X" (VAX I call it), but am pleased with using Qt Creator. Things get way better with Qt Creator 1.3, and I hope 1.4 adds a class browser, which is its worst weakness. But I am continually amazed by how good Qt Creator is, and how clear a vision its developers have. Amazed, I Say! It is as though all the VS competitors laid down and died and now Qt Creator is all that stands to truly develop a C++-Centric IDE. I always hated how VS watered itself down to adapt to every language, to the point that later versions downplayed the MFC wizards (yuck, but hey, I needed them back then). Eclipse is based on Java. I love using an IDE build with Qt and made for Qt. So go Qt Creator and don't look back. At first I was a bit wary that Qt Creator might be another "dies on the vine" type of project, but after the last two releases and the coming v1.3 I see that it is going to be the new kid on the block -- if only it gets that class browser!
