U++ is a cross-platform rapid application development environment in C++. Can work with GCC, Clang, MinGW and Visual C++ and contains a full-featured debugger.
Fast development comes from smart and aggressive use of C++, not fancy code generators. In this regard, U++ competes with popular scripting languages while retaining the runtime characteristics of C/C++.
The development environment includes BLITZ build technology for up to 4x faster C++ rebuilds, visual designers for U++ libraries, Topic++ for documenting code and creating rich text resources for applications (such as help and code documentation), and Assist++, a powerful C++ code analyzer , which provides features such as code completion, navigation, and transformation.

Integrated application development environment (IDE) in the programming languages Java, JavaFX, Ruby, Python, C++, PHP, JavaScript/HTML5, Groovy and several others. To support development for mobile platforms (J2ME), you must install the NetBeans Mobility Pack separately.
In terms of quality and capabilities, NetBeans IDE is not inferior to the best commercial (paid) integrated development environments, supporting refactoring, profiling, highlighting syntactic structures with color, autocompletion of typed structures on the fly, many predefined code templates, and more.
