Why MVC is not suitable for Windows application?

What are the tools used by modern desktop/"native" C++  application developers?

  • Besides the usual editor and debugger, what do the modern desktop (Windows and Linux) application developers use for their development? I am more interested in profilers, code analyzers, memory analyzers, packaging tools, GUI frameworks, libraries and any other handy tools and secrets that you couldn't live without. For example, as a web application developer, I have my Firebug and its extensions, Wireshark, jQuery and its extensions, client side and server side MVC frameworks, Selenium tests, jsFiddle, etc.

  • Answer:

    Dash for Mac OS X Excellent documentation tool

For .NET, 3rd party libraries such as http://www.telerik.com/ and http://www.devexpress.com/ provide solid UI extensions. For Eclipse development, Spring http://www.springsource.com/developer/sts is almost essential. Maven http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/maven-integration-eclipse-wtp is widely used. For both, Apache Subversion http://subversion.apache.org/ is commonly used as a source control framework these days.

On the Windows platform, wxWidgets, QT and VCL/C++Builder are three frameworks that do the best job for professional looking and complex applications. Some die hards still stick with Microsofts antiquated MFC toolkit. Some will write huge applications using vanilla C and the low level Win32 APIs

On Windows: Visual Studio (testing 2012 Release Candidate which adds huge number of great features for C++ devs), also I also extensively use Sublime Text 2 as the editor plus commandlines to automate msbuild scripts, which is good for small apps that do not need much of debugging. :) On other platforms: Xcode, Eclipse and also Sublime Text 2 + scripting.
