Have you tried IntelliJ?

Not from a personal experience. I just know that many people who dislike eclipse have a much better opinion of IntelliJ.

IntelliJ is a huge improvement over Eclipse. I started out with Eclipse about two years ago when I took on Android development. While Android Studio is still somewhat unstable, it is getting better and better.
I am a C# programmer at heart and still believe VS to be the best IDE ever. But, when I develop for Android, Android Studio is the tool of choice.

Surprised to see that C has almost as many votes as Java. Next to C#, Java is one of the most sought after languages in my area's local job market.

That's different from being somebody's favorite language

CodeProject certainly has a C/C++/C# bias.

If Java had a better IDE, it would get a lot more love.

That Python hasn't gotten more votes here... excellent and powerful language that it is.
I too dabbled in pacifism once.

If you browse the discussions and quick answers on the site you will see that there is even no section for Python. This means there are not much Pythonians visiting the site and thus no one to vote despite the beauty of Python. There are a lot of articles about C# and also for C++ and this attracts C# and C++ programmers, so it is normal most of them to votes to be for C# and C++. Ask the same question in Python forum and I bet Python will be their favorite language

For all that Maunder's tried to broaden the site beyond it's original MFC-centric basis; it's still essentially Microsoft Code Project, and C# has been the buzzword compliant tool in the MS world for the last decade or so. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Python is not "Normally" used on Windows systems(except perhaps XP).
But ask Linux/Unix people, it would be used all of the time and for several cool tools.

I use to call some Windows-API dlls.
So I prefer to stick to C++.

Sometimes the same is true for me.
And that's when I turn to C++/CLR which, by the way, is sadly missing in the list.

Haha, that's just taking the easy way out
This reminds of back in the late '90s when I wrote a client/server kiosk system for public computers using massive amounts of Windows API calls...in VB6! Pretty painful when the callback functions return data types that your language doesn't have, imagine the insanity of bit-level data manipulation in VB6 just to get a return value. You can learn a lot by using the wrong tools, but it sure ain't fun. So yeah, stick to C++

the thing that is surprising to me is ObjectiveC and Swift are yet* to open their accounts! 
* -> 168 votes so far...
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!
