I'm a windows user and new to c++. But would like to switch to Linux. Is there any IDE that I can use for c++, vb.net java, and ASP.

Do you want the same IDE to work with all those languages or you want different IDEs for each language?

[ahbrahim2]

it doesn't matter, but it will be good if there is one IDE works for these thre c++, vb.net and asp.net. java can be different is ok.

I don't know if it works with .Net stuff -As .Net is Microsoft's- but Eclipse will work with Java and C++
( There are tons of language plug-ins for Eclipse )

Is VB.net and ASP.net even available on Linux?

[Bazzy]

There is a free implementation of .Net

http://www.mono-project.com/ASP.NET

I have used Mono and it is OK. The problem I ran into is that for some things, the APIs implemented for .net and mono were different. I recall running into this when doing database access. You couldn't get me to program in VB with IronPython available.

Honestly, if you have to program in vb.net and ASP, you are best sticking with Visual Studio.

Thanks for the advise and probably I will do dual boot for Both linux and windows, so that way I can program my .net in visual studio.
