I'm trying to learn Cuda and its very interesting but I'm having problems creating code without a bit of help from an IDE. I know Java/Python but I'm unfamiliar with C/C++ so I have been using eclipse and Xcode to help me with commands and finding things(via code code completion). I can't seem to get these options for CUDA?
I have seen examples and can build them find(nvcc is working) but without the IDE to help catch some of my mistakes I'm a bit lost editing the code in just a text editor. I found a toolkit plugin for eclipse but although it seems to install I think its for a older build of eclipse because most of the options in the instructions do not match my version(Indigo). Nvidia has a plugin for Visual studio only on their site(I'd rather not install windows on my mac to use Cuda).
I'm sorry if this sounds bad but I'm curious to how people are developing cuda on Mac's. I don't care what IDE I use as long as it helps me see the options and warn me if I have syntax issues,etc..(I'm not the best programmer but switching IDE's for me has just been a matter of finding out where things are so I'm really fine with any solution as long as it helps me as I'm learning).
Nsight Eclipse Edition is available as a part of the CUDA Toolkit 5.0 (no additional download required).
