" C-STEMBian " : instant turn off. Can't you work out how to integrate it properly with Raspbian so it can just be added to an existing installation ? It's not "free" if it needs a new SD card to install it. Oh, and reading further, it isn't actually a C/C++ IDE as it implements it's own non-standa...

One of the best IDE's for C++ is Ch Professional Edition which is available for free on Raspberry Pil through the C-STEM Center and C-STEM Studio at c-stem.ucdavis.edu/downloads/.

It sounds like a very interesting project. You may try Mobile-C, http://www.mobilec.org/ an IEEE FIPA (Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents) standard compliant multi-agent platform for supporting C/C++ mobile agents in networked intelligent mechatronic and embedded systems. It enables you to m...

Check out C-STEMbian. It has applications that you could use for engineering - hardware and software.

I would check out the Ch Wiring Pi Package. It makes running programs like this very easy in C-STEMbian.

SoftIntegration released free C/C++ interpreter Ch and Embedded Ch for Raspberry Pi, Pi Zero, Pi Zero W for non-commercial use.

The C-STEM Center has additional resources for using the C/C++ interpreter for Raspberry Pi

The Ch WiringPi Package can support all API in the C libraries in WiringPi
