THIS IS OUR PREFERRED WINDOWS DEVELOPMENT IDE FOR THE RASPBERRY PI
The reason – you program on your nice fast Windows PC but under the bonnet it copies the files and uses the RPi to actually compile the project which, whilst a bit slower than using a high spec PC, solves all the issues of platform architecture, installed libraries, etc.  Its a really nice well implemented and pretty damn painless solution!  Oh, and single stepping, run to breakpoint, etc, full on debugging just works – thank you NetBeans gods!<\/strong><\/em><\/span> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installing NetBeans
<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

At the time or writing installing Netbeans 11 has a few hoops to jump through – there’s no longer an installer and C\/C++ support has to be added (it was all fine in netbeans 8 but since loosing Oracle support lots of changes are underway, hopefully will improve in future versions)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Download the latest NetBeans IDE from https:\/\/netbeans.apache.org\/download\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no installer provided for the new apache version of netbeans (at the time of writing) so select the “binaries” version, save it somewhere. To run it double click the file “netbeans-install-directory\\bin\\netbeans64.exe”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will also need the Java SE Development Kit<\/a> (JDK) (the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is not enough). Netbeans needs Jave SE \/ JDK to be installed in order to function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting C\/C++ support working<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

C\/CC++ has been removed in netbeans 10.0 and 11.0 but is scheduled to be re-introduced in netbeans 12.00. Its down to a donation phase of work in the transition from Oracle. However it can easily be added into V10.0 and V11.0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
