    Editor with good code completion

    I''m currently using dev-cpp, with great pleasure I might add. I'm just getting started with C++ (school...).
    But I'd like to know if theres some editor with better code completion. AFAIK dev-cpp only completes user defined classes, but what I'm looking for is an editor which also will complete reserverd words, variables etc (If someone is familiar with Zend Studio (php editor) they know what im talking about).

    If someone has a tip I would be very glad

    Thanx!

    you mean you are looking for a cpp compiler?
    if so, try borland cbuilder or VC.

    erhm where you type your code in is an editor, the magic that creates your executables is a compiler

    I don´t exactly understand what you´re looking for but you should try www.editplus.com. A great editor that amongst many other features has support for userdefined code-completion.
