It is too time consuming to add all the classes manually to the DE (Development Environment). There must be easier ways. I am an experienced Software Developer but I dont know how to do this.
I want to use a Linux or independent free DE and I want to easily add the whole Bitcoin Source Code. It would be nice to automatically update the source code and compare changes.
Because I have no experience doing this, I dont know where to start googling. Some links and hints would be nice.
Thanks!
There are indeed easier ways, which virtually every IDE provides - either through plugins which will connect to a git repo directly, or other mechanisms to get you started.
Already mentioned was NetBeans. There's also Eclipse. Xcode on the Mac. VS on Windows. JetBrains' CLion is a good cross platform IDE. Heck, even Qt Creator will suffice, and give you the added benefit of visualizing the forms for the Core GUI.
