Good c++ application?

GrumPy

Hi. Using borland c++ in college, it seems okish.

Can anyone recommend anything better, or where I can download it?

I'm sure there's plenty of compilers that are free?

Cheers

The GNU gcc compiler? Easy to get hold of on Linux or Unix

GrumPy

Cheers, running windows though!

No problem!
And you'll get cygwin, really handy

Thank you kind sir, I shall give it a whirl!

Gcc has nothing on intels or microsofts compilers.

I still use gcc though !

But not free

We had Borland in college too, but found Dev-C++ to be much better... (and its free!!) If using it in college you can install it on your shared drive or a usb key.

bloodhound devC++ is what i use, im only a beginner but its easy to setup and fast to use from what i can tell.

it uses the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) as its compiler

Try Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Enterprise edition, it's completly free and IMHO the best.

unpure

Best option by far.

you surely mean the Express edition, that one is free

and you can get quite a lot done with it. Check out the M$ website for the differences in versions.

Yep Bloodshed or Dev C++ is the sh1t alright....

Red Alert

Bloodshed's the best, but I've had some hassle using it on some 64-bit machines.

Eclipse will also do C/C++ but I think you may have to install the command line GNU compiler separately, not sure on that one.

Really?
I'm on 64-bit and it compiles and runs fine...
What version are you running?
(If you want I can give you mai config. of something...)

[I have V. 4.9.9.2...]

I recommend:

Code:Blocks

Bloodshed is best- I agree!!

Try to run this on Bloodshed:

void main()
{
cout << "Hi";
}

Why it's not working?

askU

cout is nor=t a valid comand for bloodshed

try:

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("Hi");
getchar(); getchar();

return 0;
}

Deserved

It's a valid command:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Hellow world";
return 0;
}

But not for:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void main()
{
cout << "Hellow world";
}

Well in C anyways having a void main function is strictly in correct as it should return some return value back out to the console. Thats what I like with Dev Cpp, doesn't allow you to do stuff that shouldn't be allowed.

Some C compilers allow it. Now I'd put my money that C++ has the same - do not use Void mains!

FYI: http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/readings/voidmain.960823.html

Yeah you're right, see here:

Have bloodshed thingy installed. Seems nice in terms of GUI, but it wont run any successfully compiled program. I am running vista btw. I have linux on dual boot, and I cant seem to get any compiler working

(It's not my bad coding if that's what your thinking)

What's happening that it won't compile? - Also what is gcc saying in linux? - Strange neither work

pelles C is good too

GrumPy

Well I never got any to work in either ubuntu or windows vista!

But that's not the worst part, my laptop died. So I am using an acer netbook with "Linpus Linux Lite v1.0.7.E"

Anyone got advice howto get a c/c++ compiler working on this?!

If your in DIT just zip the BCC55 folder up (Type C: in the my computer in lab), send to your email, download when you get home, extract BCC55 folder to C:\ drive, create shortcut to the .bat (startBC.bat) file in the folder on desktrop and you have the same ide as used in college, if you like I'll throw it on rapidshare*

*Perfectly legal, DIT seem to use the free Borland Compiler and the open source Scntilla? editor, just the BAT file makes it possible to compile within Scntilla

Nice one. Do that if ya can! But will it work on my new "Linpus Linux Lite OS"?

Not sure but it will work on windows xp/vista

^^ Link to Borland C++ compiler, To install:
Download winrar (I guess you know this)
Extract the BCC55 folder to C:\ drive (Directory could be changed, but make sure changes are specified in the startbc.cmd file)
Create desktop shortcut to StartBC.cmd
Test it

If it's linux it should have gcc installed or available. Type gcc into a terminal and see what you get

Thanks. But how do I pull up terminal? Sorry, I am new to Linux.
