Great news~

Only minor disappointment for me was that you can only use it on windows with gcc via msys, and you have to struggle through that install yourself. Given that there's a build of clang* out there for msys already that would have been nice to support... but I guess it's still EAP.

Try these one-click installers; the experience is much better.

mingw-builds to install gcc:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingwbuilds/

msys2 to install the rest of the build environment:

http://msys2.github.io/

(as well as a growing number of packages, managed with a port of pacman from Arch)


You could try using Clang from MinGW. May be CMakeCache changes will be necessary in the CMake tool window. But in the whole should work ok.


Which is where Qt Creator currently shines (would be interesting to hear from someone who has tried both) :)
