[petsc-users] Which IDE you use to develop petsc application

[Fande Kong]

Thanks.It sounds very interesting. I always use Eclipse as my IDE for
developing other applications (including java application, Android mobile
application, web server and so on), but I don't know how to use it to
develop Petsc application.  I can't find any documents about how to do this.
