I see that JetBrains new C/C++ IDE, CLion, assumes you will use CMake.
This will not be good for SCons use.

I also note that Netbeans assumes you will use Autotools for C/C++
projects, but that you can convince it to use SCons by devious means.

Netbeans: yes, creating a project by having it run a SCons build and scan
build commands works quite well.

I am partial to Netbeans. If you can get Netbeans to build, clean, and
debug via scons can I get instructions or better yet can we add them to the
wiki?

The trick is to just say yes to a custom Make, and then when it asks for
details tell it all about SCons. Ugly, but it works. I have moaned to
the Netbeans product manager but sadly the whole IDE world thinks all C
and C++ builds are done with Make.

CLion is supposed to support more build tools in the future, I've been
told. Maybe put some pressure on them to support SCons (via their forums
f.ex.)?

Building up pressure is the wrong approach, we could simply offer them
our help...if they should be interested to add some basic SCons support
to their tools.

I have asked a question http://devnet.jetbrains.com/thread/457064

Let's see what the response is: it may be that the whole of CLion is
being engineered around CMake, and so would disallow Make and Autotools
as well. Or it may be that they are just using CMake for now and will
allow plugable alternatives.

JetBrains have accepted the idea of alternate build frameworks and are
asking for opinions regarding support for SCons:

http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-1102

As always, vote early and definitely vote often.

Or vice versa. If they could support SCons research, that would help
to dedicate more time to it.
