About this app

Cxxdroid is the most easy to use educational C and C++ IDE for Android.

Features:
- Offline C/C++ compiler: no Internet is required to run C/C++ programs.
- Package manager and a custom repository with prebuilt packages for common libraries, such as Boost, SQLite, ncurses, libcurl, etc.
- Graphics libraries such as SDL2, SFML* and Allegro* are also available.
- Examples available out-of-the-box for quicker learning.
- Full-featured Terminal Emulator.
- C/C++ interpreter mode (REPL) based on CERN Cling is also available.
- Outstanding performance with advanced compiler caching technology: upto 33 times faster when Boost library is used, 3x average speedup.
- Clean and mature architecture: now code is analyzed and compiled with the same compiler, and the IDE doesn't crash completely due to runtime errors in your programs :)
- UI designed with speed and usability in mind: forget about unobvious shortcuts or touch button combos required just to run your program.
- True compiler: no Java (or even Javascript) based interpreters involved, even inline assembler language is supported (Clang syntax).

Editor features:
- Real time code prediction, auto indentation and code analysis just like in any real IDE. *
- Extended keyboard bar with all symbols you need to program in C++.
- Syntax highlighting & themes.
- Tabs.
- One click share on Pastebin.

* Features marked by asterisk are available in Premium version only.

Important notice: Cxxdroid requires at least 150MB free internal memory. 200MB+ is recommended. More if you are using heavy libraries such as Boost.

Ratings and reviews

This is the best C++ IDE I've been able to find on Android. The only problem is tab alignment. E.g., if your tab size was the standard 4, and had these four lines: \t text 1\t text 22\t text 333\t text The "text" in each row would usually be aligned to all be 4 character-widths away from the left edge of the editor. However, this app displays tabs as always the maximum width, regardless of column. Otherwise, this app is amazing, and I would pay for this if the tab spacing was fixed.

There are some issues with file management. Sometimes "ghost tabs" that can't be closed linger. Sometimes saving a file seemingly renames another open file, or at least the tab title. Sometimes an older version of a file loads on startup. Other than that it's an excellent app. Would give five stars if these were fixed!

Very Impressed. I got this app so I could work on a multi file C project while I'm flying/traveling, for when I don't want my laptop out or only have a few minutes while waiting around. I had low expectations as far as importing my existing source and header files and getting everything to link and compile properly, but it worked exceptionally well! Also, the c interpreter is awesome for the same reasons that a python interpreter is. Very well done.
