To be honest no real advantage/disadvantage, for that project (which 
various people worked on as I explained in earlier emails) codeblocks 
was chosen, as the only linux user in the team I pushed for it against 
visial studio so that at least i could use it as well. Many people 
(including myself in the past) feel more combfortable with an IDE but of 
course anyone is free to use whatever they prefer.
