Hello,
Your IDE seems the tool I need but ...
.. no JAVA please.
JAVA is the source of many security problems.
Maybe you can compile your application to a running Windows/Linux version?

Linux(x86, x86-64, ARM soft & hard float)
Solaris(x86, x86-64)
Mac OS X(x86, x86-64, PPC, PPC64)

No Android version? Meh.


Just kidding
Really great!
And don't listen to the people whining about Java. Because of Java, it runs nearly everywhere.
Even on a small ARM board (e.g. Raspberry Pi).
Cheers,
Uhrheber
