Question is - how to develop on Windows platform with comfort, using CMake as primary configuration tool. What I mean is IDE or something, that parse CMake config and help you to include external hpp files for example. I know that Qt Creator can (it support MSVC compiler), but Qt Creator sometimes fail to save file with error "Can't write to disk. Is it full". Seems like bug. And that's all.
What I mean is not generate .sln for Visual Studio.
Also I tried VS 2017 RC, but its crashing constantly with my project.
P.S. I tried Visual Studio with separate .sln, but it's really uncomfortably to support two different configs.
Thanks
Try out KDevelop 5 for Windows, it has great CMake support, as well as Clang based language features.

The official Arduino IDE has some nice features, such as the board and library management, which works relatively well. However, when it comes to building. It only supports .ino files, while my project has .hpp and .cpp files, just like any regular C++ project. I tried things like the VS Code plugin for Arduino, but that also uses .ino files.
The only alternative I found is Sloeber, which is an Eclipse plugin, and it has the usual problem of Eclipse plugins that I can either install it or not. I had a previous version installed, but when I tried to update it, it completely broke my Eclipse installation. I tried installing the latest version, but it doesn't work.
Is there any alternative to sloeber? I'd prefer something that can be used from the command line, but an IDE is just fine too.

Recently I downloaded Qt 5.6
I didn't knew that installing visual studio is necessary to build with Qt.
I have a poor internet connection and somehow managed to download Qt. But now is it necessary to install visual studio of 7 GiBs which is nearly impossible for me to download with my shitty kind of internet? I had searched on google and found that MinGW can be used to build with Qt. Please help me to configure it.
You can download a pre-build version of Qt, building it yourself is not necessary or recommended for beginners:
http://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.6/5.6.0/
The qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw492-5.6.0.exe comes with MinGW 4.9.2 bundled.
Building Qt from sources can take many hours on a slow machine, and potentially fail for a number of reasons, also it has 3rd party requirements such as perl and python.

Does this exist? Can someone recomend one if it does. I was going to use minGW from the command line but Boost does not support minGW from the command line.
Figured I'd go ahead and try and install an IDE and Boost .
Edit Ok, none of these actually come with boost. I don't know of an IDE that does (and frankly I don't know why it should). Installing Boost is pretty simple as it is. I interpreted the question to be:
What nice windows IDE does support compiling with Boost?
VS Express 2010 C++: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010-editions/visual-cpp-express
Code::Blocks and
eclipse CDT work with MingW
see http://ascend4.org/Binary_installer_for_Boost_on_MinGW
nuwen.net (thanks, Benjamin!)
My MinGW distribution ("distro") currently contains GCC 4.6.1 and Boost 1.47.0.
mingw-7.2.exe (16.8 MB) : This is a self-extracting archive. It's incredibly easy to install; see How To Install below.
I find BoostPro the easiest way to install pre-compiled boost binaries (libs, DLLs) and compiler pre-requisites (headers etc). http://www.boostpro.com/download/ (it's an installer that downloads whatever Boost modules you select and unzips them wherever you've told it to). All you need to do after that to use it is add the lib and include paths to your IDE/compiler. I personally recommend Visual Studio for Windows.

Does anyone know of any free (critical point I'm afraid) code coverage tools for Visual Studio 2010 Professional edition. I know there are commercial offerings such as NCover and DotCover, but due to budget considerations these can't be considered. For similar reasons, upgrading to versions of VS that come with code coverage built in also can't be considered.
Looking around I see there appears to be loads of free options for Java developers, but there doesn't appear to be any (VS integrated) options for .NET developers. Please note that I am looking for VS integrated solutions. I know there is a free community version of NCover that runs from the command line, but only the commercial edition is integrated with the VS IDE.
Edit: If no one is really aware of any free tools currently available, could anyone provide pointers to tutorials on how to create VS plug-ins that decorate code in the source window?
partcover?

I would like to use some cross platform C++ library for starting, stopping and getting standard output for processes. I found and I would like to use C++ POCO libraries:
are these good?
What's the best alternatives? I use Boost and they have Boost Process, but is not part of the official release and AFAIK it won't be neither very soon (development stopped at 2008).
Can you advise me a bit on this POCO lib or other?
I don't have any direct experience with the Processes lib in POCO but I'm a big fan of the project in general and the networking and threading libs in particular. Works great under Windows (MinGW & VS), OS X, and Linux.
I have used POCO cross-platform for iOS/Android and it was very straightforward, dynamic pointers, threading and much much more. There was some threshold on getting it running at first, but once first sample was running: no problems... You may want to check out our entire project here
