About LinkBacksHi,
I've written some codes (actually quite a lot, around 30 files) ... in Linux ... but i would like to change names of my Classes, Variable Names and Functions, any way to change it quickly and safe?
Any tools allow me to manage that?
Thanks
Jeff

Eclipse is an IDE that has this feature, and as far as I know, it's free too.

You're basically talking about a refactoring tool. A search of the Web brings up this list of refactoring tools. The good part is that it lists 3 for C++. The bad part is that it only lists 3 for C++.
Now, if only those guys over at Netbeans ported over their refactoring functionality for their C/C++ plugin...Eclipse is an IDE that has this feature, and as far as I know, it's free too.

I think Turbo C++ had that feature. Though I'm not sure if you should depend on it for anything else (the editor is not bad, but I'm not sure about the compiler).
EDIT: sorry, forgot you wanted a utility for Linux. I think Turbo C++ is for Windows only.

The compiler is worse than the editor (by far)

Technically for DOS mainly, but certainly not Linux.

By the way, Emacs has some pretty good search/replace facilities - and as long as you rename one thing at a time, you can check with the compiler that you got it right...

That refactoring tool list I linked to lists Xrefactory, an emacs plugin, as one of the tools for C++.

Thanks, Witch,
This is a great help ...
the Eclipse is easier to learn, Xrefactory is a bit complicated for me
Eclipse C++ IDE is perfect
Perfect? I doubt that. Nothing is perfect, and Eclipse even less so than other, specialized, IDEs I would think.

Haha, Elysia took it quite seriously ... i should have said "perfect for my needs, my skills, and my time " ...
Last time I tried to use Eclipse, it was an extreme pain to set up. So I can't quite call it perfect. Though it wasn't for C++, I would image it's still the same.
And I don't think there's a compiler either? So that means manual compiling? Fun...

Download, install, enter your code, press build.
Really, i didn't have difficulty. Download, install, new project, add file system, Right click, refactor .. that's it ... :|
