Any good IDE's for C++ Development?


Annabelle Susan Morison
 

Hi, it's Annabelle.
Are there any IDE's out there for C++ development that are fully accessible to screenreaders like JAWS? I've tried Visual Studio Community, but unfortunately they deceived me when I downloaded it. The people at Microsoft said it was free, but then after about 60 days, I found out it was actually an evaluation, as a message came up saying "Your evaluation period has expired." Even worse, my Microsoft account got suspended as a result of so-called inactivity! I'd like to have an IDE which can compile programs for all operating systems, won't install any bloatware, and most important of all, won't take forever to install! Visual Studio Community could compile for all operating systems, but unfortunately it certainly succeeded in installing bloatware, and worst of all, it took forever to install!

just a guess, did you download the correct one?

from the below link/address, there are 3 editions to download:

a fully-featured IDE for students, open-source and individual developers
which is the free one, Visual Studio Professional 2017 and Visual Studio
Enterprise 2017 are both trial versions.

Yes. I downloaded Visual Studio Community 2015, as that's how high my
machine can go up to. Any higher updates would break compatibility with my
current configuration of JAWS 15! And no, I don't have the funds to upgrade
JAWS either.

You might try Eclipse. I haven't used it for C++, but have used it for Java
and php.
It doesn't work perfectly with JAWS, but it is usable.
