Professional Developing/ programming ?

[Sam111]

I am wondering for all you professional programmers/developers what do companies generally uses for there IDE / what do consultants use for developing/programming.

I have mostly seen either microsoft IDE like visual studio's , or eclipse , vi/emacs sometimes.

Is there any other popular ones out there or is that like generally 90% of what people use with the 10% being
private / company specific IDE... ( maybe like firmware development , or specific application development )

I know avr studio's , and PIC microchip IDE are popular for firmware but I believe they must have specific IDE for programming the BIOS of most computers.

Just curious on what you guys uses don't post if your a recreational programmer I am looking for only profesional used IDE that people uses or only professionals / contractors ...etc uses in there development.

It depends on the product you're working with.
If it runs as native binary on Windows you usually use visual studio.
If it's a server product (that target to run on Linux or BSD), in my case, I use Makefile for the build process and don't care much on everyone's IDE (and I used xcode and build on my mac half on the time).

And yes, I did the above fields for real job.

For how long ?

And anybody out there for the firmware programming I would imagine this would vary alot between IDE's. (i.e bios programming , embedded systems , ....electronics ,...etc )

ALso how about for web development not specific to a system my guess is netbeans , eclipses , dreamweaver , as well as maybe microsoft developing products as well .... but not sure how common each on is usually used in the business world for professional products

Or maybe the IDE and methods of developing model the school taught methods for most extent same IDE's etc etc not sure though like to know your opinon on it

Obviously the bottom line is what works to make the product the best and costs down.

I don't see how that revalent and I don't want to go deeper with social engineering.

[Sam111]

lol,
I will tell you why its relevent leaving off the social engineering.
Because the more time you have in different professional job places the more you understand how the majority of the professional uses and there techquies.

So say if you only worked 1 year in development/programming then I am more up to taking somebodies opinon if they had 20/30 years in developing for major companies (on this particular ?). Though don't get me wrong I take everybodies information into account for the most part

When you have all the information/techquies on every subject then there is no social engineering required just experiences by anonomious

Information is powerful but what is more powerful is a humans ability to control it in a good way

I am wondering for all you professional programmers/developers what do companies generally uses for there IDE / what do consultants use for developing/programming.

The fact is that most of us are under contract not to put our company at an disadvantage, with more or less precision about the ways. After all, sharing our way of work could provide advantageous information to our competitor or future contractors that wish to take advantage of it, which could lead to a breach of contract and a 5 digit fine if found out.

So yes, merely asking constitutes a form of social engineering even if you're not aware of it.

So yes, merely asking constitutes a form of social engineering even if you're not aware of it.

That is your believe

And what are we competing for I thought the world is taught to live in peace and harmony or strive for that.

The company I work for does a lot of web development in PHP. For that, there is no company-mandated IDE, but a lot of us use Netbeans. Visual Studio is also a popular choice (more so amongst the people who also do .NET development).
