gccIDE is merged to nvide.

gccIDE

A neovim based GCC/G++ IDE, based on alpine linux, c/c++ language server enabled, syntax highlight IDE. Just pull docker image from hub.docker.com and run it.

For me golangIDE is a good development environment for go language. I still need a c/c++ language development environment.

Feature

Both GCC and CLANG is ready for use. The default compiler is GCC. Both clangd and ccls is ready. The default language server is ccls. If you prefers clangd, please refer to switch clangd.

Quick guide

% docker pull ericwq057/gccide:latest

% docker run -it -d -h gccide  --env TZ=Asia/Shanghai  --name gcc \
  --mount source=proj-vol,target=/home/ide/proj \
  --mount type=bind,source=YOUR-SHARED-DIRECTORY,target=/home/ide/develop \
  gccide:latest

$ docker exec -u ide -it gcc bash

• YOUR-SHARED-DIRECTORY is you local source code directory shared with native OS. E.g. "/Users/qiwang/dev".
• You may need to create a docker volume proj-vol first:

% docker volume create proj-vol

• proj-vol is also your source code directory, which you don't need to access from native OS. It's faster comparing with shared one.
• Check % ls /usr/share/zoneinfo to get the TZ value for your location.

Reference

• Modern C++ development in (Neo)vim
• Configure coc.nvim for C/C++ Development
• Set up for C++/C Development in Neovim

Notes

If you want to use docker to develop kernel module or device driver. Don't do that. Use virtualbox or vmware instead.

• Is it possible to use a kernel module built from within Docker?
• docker linux container doesn't support driver development?
• Containers are not VMs

Status

• Working on detail guide.
• The gccIDE is verified by ccls - A C++ project, by both ccls and clangd. See ccls project for detail.
• The gccIDE is verified by ldd3 - A C project, See ldd3 project for detail.
