Shackman 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 Hello guys!So far, I only can complie files with the Borland compiler that work only in MS-DOS mode. As you guys know, MS-DOS is ancient....some people have never even heard about it!!!!Yeah, that's the truth...but anywayz, do you guys have a compiler that can do the same as Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler that is free? I am not looking for illegal stuff or anything. I am looking for a fully legimate program that can do almost exactly the same as Microsoft Visual C++.I really want to know, and don't worry., I am not posting this for fun. I really want to know. I'm stuck on this post and hope you guys can give me a resource. Thanks-Shackman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tomko 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2004 There IS a GCC for Win32 (MinGW):https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/You should also try Eclipse and of course DevCPP.What is the reason that you need free programming tool? Maybe I can tell you about similar projectstMk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shackman 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2004 Ermm....microsoft c++ visual studio is a commercial C++ compiler. I know its really ver ygood but I don't have the money.If you are thinking about pirates...its hard to get any in Singapore. Devc++ is not really what I am looking for. However, it does make coding easier because it has a better interface than notepad. If you guys do find more software that compiles C++ source codes which are free and almost equivelent to microsoft c++ visual studio, do post here.

Argosoft 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2004 http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ <-- this is the MinGw Developer studio, very very cute! It's my favourite c/c++ free compiler Download the package n.2, it could be perfect. But, if you want to work with wxWindows, download the package 3good luck!

Supaflyfrank 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2004 There is a book something like a programmer starter kit are what not that comes with the educational version of Visual C++ 6. That would be great for you to use and the book cost around $39 or $49. It is worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neeki4444 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2004 You want a free Visual C++ compiler, go to microsoft.com they are giving out visual c++.net beat 2, the download is only 50mb. You can compile C++, C++.NET, and MFC programs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mizako 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2004 Hi,I use gcc in my job to compile c++. Remeber there are also really good free programming graphical interfaces in linux such as kdevelop or kcscope and debbugers such as gdb. It is alsways a good moment to move into linux. If you like programming or if you want to be programmer windows is not the best Operating System for your needs. However Visual Net or Visual C++ are also really good environment. I used both i was quite happy with them. Bye Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
