try eclipse with eclipse cdt plugin. In www.eclipse.org you can find a bundle of "eclipse for c/c++ developers". That's the one you need. 2009/9/1 Hassan Syed :

Hello All, I've been trying to get autocompletion to work under Unix. I do not mind which editor I use really. I was hoping to get the quality of visual studio code completion. I have tried VIM/Ctags/Omnicompletion, Netbeans and Eclipse. The first option does not work well since ctags has a problem indexing boost, the smallest index I could build is 56 mb (after excluding the vector*.hpp files).  Netbeans works well however it is dog slow. Eclipse doesn't work at all (perhaps I've done something wrong). Is there a combination for a posix system that will work well with boost (or other template heavy libraries) or do I need to code in visual studio and just recompile under a posix system ?. I guess what I could do is hide the boost code I use behind my own objects in visual studio and then resume development on Posix where it can index my objects nicely. It's depressing how bad the code completion engines are in non-Microsoft editors for C++ :(. Are there any mechanisms in c++0x to make the template code easier to parse for naive code-completion engines ?
