But Eclipse bashing by people who use say, VisualStudio, that I don't understand. Last time I tried both toolchains, VS seemed as heavy and "bloated" as Eclipse (CDT) was. Yet CDT seemed quite ahead in terms of features, especially semantics-wise (open definition, code complete, etc.). Admittedly this was 3-4 years ago, and I only toyed lightly with C/C++ code, I didn't do any serious development. But I doubt the situation changed such that VS got much better than CDT, if anything, the opposite is more likely.

Well I did/do use Eclipse+CDT heavy with C++ development as well for python development. Eclipse+CDT has improved A LOT over the last years. Besides it has very valuable plugins for example linuxtools and for embedded linux development www.yoctoproject.org. For vim users there are plenty plugins/options available to use vim as editor in eclispe. I also don't really understand the bashing. But IMO VS for development on-and-for windows is still ahead of eclipse.
