c++ compiler ?

[wo1olf]

I can't install ms studio at home, but i have notePad. Is there any freeware compiler that i can use to run and debug my code & programm ?

I think MinGW comes with gcc: http://www.mingw.org/

GCC.

Does GCC compile Windows programs? I always thought it was just for *nix.

[Jeff Wheeler]

I thought so… could be wrong, though.

Hi all,

There are quite a few options available to you, here are a few:

Visual C++ Express (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/default.aspx)
Bloodshed Dev C++ (http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html) (comes with MingW)
CodeBlocks (http://www.codeblocks.org/) (again with MingW).
Digital Mars (http://www.digitalmars.com/download/dmcpp.html)

FYI, MingW is essentially GCC for Windows :)

Cheers
OJ

Ah, okay. I suppose that makes sense.
