When comes to ease of debugging Visual Studio is outstanding. Not the most powerful debugger in the world (WinDBG is much more advanced), but it's my experience is that it's easy to work with even for new people.
- malkia 12y agoThat to be said, when comes to OSX/Linux I had to deal less with debugging (more with logging), but QtCreator's debugging while missing features, saved the day for me while in C++ land, and NetBeans quickly got me to solve java issues (java is something I'm learning/using right now so I'm not entirely versed in what's good in there, but trying out Eclipse several times to debug didn't do it for me - maybe I was too impaitient... where is the damn "Attach to Something" and do it kind of thing...)
- revelation 12y agoIn my mind, these two just occupy a very different niche. WinDBG is great when you don't necessarily have the source or symbols at hand, where VS excels with that information available.
