Re: [Vala] State of Vala IDEs



I use SublimeText 2 (http://www.sublimetext.com/)  Vala support
through a plugin.  It's not an IDE per se, but rather a feature rich,
super lightweight text editor.  It has great project and language
support.  Code completion is done using known-string matching (which
to be fair only helps so far,) and it has features to jump to line
numbers or symbols.  It does not have a built in debugger however,
(mainly because no one has written a debugger plugin for it...)  Also
has features for a number of build systems, and is flexible enough to
really use anything.

Basically, it's like gedit in simplicity, only better.

A quick google suggests that Valencia and Geany are what many of you are
using. Do these integrate a debugger? Does code completition work?


Valencia does code completion and jump to symbol definition.
Unfortunately, it doesn't have a debugger -- that would be my biggest wish
list item too.

On a related topic, I wrote a blog post on how to set up a class browser
plugin for Gedit that works with Vala:
