What is a good, free c++ compiler and IDE?

GNU gcc for the compiler.


Eclipse for the IDE


(Works for me!)


What is a good, free c++ compiler and IDE?

If you're using Windows XP/Vista, check out the Visual Studio Express 2008 environment. Totally free download, and made for the hobbyist/student. There is a C++ compiler, Visual Basic, C# . . . Search for it on microsoft.com.

Looking for a free windows C C++ compiler with IDE that supports DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE?

I'm currently using lcc-win32, but it doesn't seem to support the ability to allow a device to be ejected such as an ipod. more details on DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE here

thanks jc

Looking for a free windows C C++ compiler with IDE that supports DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE?
You can't beat Visual Studio for an IDE and the Express version is free.
Reply:Visual C++ Express is just AWSOME. You may download it and register for FREE for a limited time, and the license DOES allow for creating commercial applications, etc.


Check out you don't actually have to use any of the .NET features, and use it just as a great compiler/IDE.

I just want to program in C/C++ on Vista. What is the best compiler/IDE for it? And where can i find it? TIA?

i have heard about Turbo C++, but on its download page Vista is not mentioned, as supported. so, what IDE or compiler should i use to write programs in C/C++ to run on Vista?

I have two IDE/ATA drives C&E and have added a SATA PC says it's working but Explorer can't see it to use

I have a Aesus A7S8X-MX motherboard and am now running two IDE/ATA hard drives. I've added a SATA drive (MAXTOR STM3250310AS) which I believe is blank..XP recognises the drive is there and says it is working properly but I can't see it in Explorer (should be F:) to format it. In Device Manager is has no location. BIOS is showing it as either Primary or Secondary SATA (I've tried it in both slots).


The Maxtor is SATA 2. The cable from Maplin was said to be suitable for SATA 1 and 2.





I've tired all the usual Troubleshoot Help for SCSI .


I have an XP installation disk but it's not the orginal one for the PC...


Any ideas?

Richt click "my Computer"


select MANAGE


Choose LOCAL DISK MANAGEMENET





Locate new disk in lower window


Right click, create a partition and FORMAT it
Reply:right! first of all you need to remove the jumper on the harddrive to make it a slave after you may need to format it by going to admin tools in the control panel then disk management.

Which IDE shall I use to teach an introductory C programming course?

I should be giving an introductory course in computer programming to students who have no previous knowledge of programming. I have selected the C programming language to be the language used to introduce the students to programming concepts. Which IDE shall I use during the course in order to be able to write and compile simple C programs with ease?





I need the simplest bare-bones IDE with minimal features in order not to overwhelm the students. I want to focus on teaching them the programming concepts and not how to use a complex full-featured IDE.

Which IDE shall I use to teach an introductory C programming course?
I would just go with Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. The express editions are free and powerful enough for what you want to do. Since they are free, you don't have to license a ton of copies for the class, and students can work on their assignments from home. You can also keep it simple by selecting the same project to start off with: Visual C++ | Win32 | Console Application. Then just select the empty project option and you have a good base to start with. The project won't contain any resource files or anything annoying like pre-generated files.
Reply:I second the nomination for Visual C++ Express 2005. This is feature packed, and might seem overwhelming, but believe me it's better than a console app running on Linux :P Your students won't use 99% of the features, and will mostly be creating new projections, opening projects, building them, debugging them and executing them. Doing things like creating a new class or file can be done with several clicks and some typing, rather than manipulating a file system in a console window with commands. Plus: the debugger is extremely friendly and easy to use, programming is 40% writing code and 80% fixing it. I know those don't add to 100%, that was intentional. With the Visual C++ Debugger, you can watch the values in memory change as you sit back, press F-10 to step through the code, and enjoy a cool beverage. For me, this was very helpful in learning what was going on when I was beginning.
Reply:In my opinion use the Visual C++ 6.0 It's so easy to write, compile and run ur codes :)


Actually when i started to learn programming using C++ in my college it was under Visual C++ 6.0 :) It was so easy to deal with unlike Visual Studio .Net 2003/2005 %26amp; any other IDE that is used to write C++ programs :)
Reply:We use Cygwin. It is simple, command line, and also has the dual benefit of introducing them to linux without them knowing it. linux scares a lot of ppl when they first see it up and running but this gets them familiarized with syntax and commands.(cuz ya know MOST backend servers are Linux based) It has syntax highlighting and such, highlight matching braces, compiles, runs..all that jazz. it is not a fancy GUI but lets them focus on the coding.


I also recommend C++ instead of C. It is more widely known and is an excellent jumping off point to the other languages like Java, Perl , %26amp; PHP..and even bash scripting since they are used to the linux-style commands

What is an IDE in C++?

Integrated Development Envoirment

What is an IDE in C++?
An IDE is a integrated development environment. It's usually a source code editor and a compiler for the specific language. Check wikipedia for info.
Reply:An IDE is a software that packs together a text editor, compiler, debugger, shell, directory editor, code browser, tags support, syntax highlighting, background compiling, an optional help docs viewer, an optional web browser support and such things that are considered good to have by programmers. Ideally, yuo should be able to develop an entire software from within the IDE, without ever having to leave it.





Code::Blocks, Eclipse, Visual studio, Emacs, Vim, Anjuta, KDevelop are some reknown IDEs.
Reply:If you can't find even this using Google, maybe it's better that you don't know.

One of the best C++ IDEs is Microsoft's Visual Studio. They have a free version called Visual Studio Express.





Two other IDEs I've used are Eclipse and Code::Blocks (both free). They're decent, but since I own VS2005, I prefer that.


Can I use SATA Hard Drive as my C drive instead IDE Hard Drive?

I'm planning to replace my IDE Hard Drive with SATA Hard Drive. I don't it will slow or make faster in reading my OS on my pc.

Can I use SATA Hard Drive as my C drive instead IDE Hard Drive?
It depends on if your motherboard can connect a sata drive. If so, yes.
Reply:Is your motherboard support the SATA Hard Disk ? If support then you can replace the IDE with SATA one. You can check by opening the CPU cabinet there you can see the data cable and power cable, just check whether the data and power cable can connect on your SATA One. SATA support small data cable of four pins only...
Reply:believe me sata is way faster than ide, it will make a big difference, get sata2 4 max performance.... BUTT.. how r u going to connect a sata hd to a motherboard that doesnt support it? make sure ur motherboard has a "sata slot" - not sure dats wat its called, if it does than yes, ur comp will run much faster, it will read and write better.
Reply:y not if u have sata on your motherboard
Reply:Yes you can, if you have SATA power and plugs on your power supply and motherboard.





Keep in mind that you'll be using a different hard drive to start up, meaning you'll have to reinstall your OS.





SATA transfers at about 150mb/s. SATA II about 300 mb/s, and IDE about 133mb/s according to Wikipedia.


C++ questions for IDE Dev?

Im quite new to C++ and im using the Dev compiler (the free one) the latest version and every time im using end1; an error comes up and says end1 undelcared. I inputed int main and using namespace std.





// carrots.cpp--food processing program





#include %26lt;iostream%26gt;





int main()


{


using namespace std;





int carrots;





cout%26lt;%26lt; "How many carrots do I have?" %26lt;%26lt; end1;


cin%26gt;%26gt; carrots;


cout%26lt;%26lt; "Here are two more";


carrots=carrots = 2;


cout%26lt;%26lt; "Now you have "%26lt;%26lt; carrots %26lt;%26lt; " carrots."%26lt;%26lt; end1;


return 0;


}

C++ questions for IDE Dev?
The end1 should be endl (note: the letter el, not the digit one at the end!) in two places. The endl stands for end-line.





Also, it should be





carrots = carrots + 2;

In VS2005 IDE using C# How can i avoid to give a "full setup" for change in one file/form ?

i have a project containing 20 forms for any change in one form i have to make a new setup to give it to a customer. The other workaround is i do a command line to make each form a dll and link it with the exe. Is there any support in the IDE itself. Please dont say "make each form a project and add them to one solution"

In VS2005 IDE using C# How can i avoid to give a "full setup" for change in one file/form ?
Well, setup packages always require the entire app to be included... atleast the one with VS05 does.





You'll need to use Install Shield if you want stuff like version upgradations.





If its a web based app you're working on, then FTP install and XCOPY install let you add new forms etc. without other changes.
Reply:If possible, use ClickOnce deployment so you can free yourself up to make changes and easily publish them, so you don't have to worry about creating installations all the time and distributing them.

Will a C# compiler / IDE work for C also???

I have recently bought a book called "let us c" by yashwant kanetkar, but that teaches us "C". Although I have a compiler called boreland turbo C# explorer and bloodshed c++. Will the examples of this book work in these applications???

Will a C# compiler / IDE work for C also???
Yes it will and by the way that book is great cuz I have that too!
Reply:No and yes. c++ is really c with classes and just about any c program/examples will compile with any c++ compiler. So your bloodshed c++ will be fine.





c#, although it has the basic syntax of c/c++ is an entirely new animal. It's not just that it uses the MS .net framework, but it, for example, has its own i/o statements (using the framework). You'll not find much joy in any example that uses


#include %26lt;stdio.h%26gt;


and


printf(...)


because the language doesn't have those libraries (or even include statements).





Put the c# aside until you're comfortable with the c language. Whatever you learn about basic language operation will be fine, and then you can decide whether to go to c++ or c#.

When i quit Turbo C++ IDE, my PC hangs out. I have Windows XP.?

First, unless you have a specific reason for using Turbo C++, I'd check into some other free C++ compilers that are more up to date. One that I'd reccommend is Bloodshed's Dev-C++. It works really well and is a nice IDE(Integrated Development Environment, editor and such) and both MinGW and Cygwin compilers are included. Look around a bit at the URL below, they have a *LOT* of programmer's tools, articles and links to other stuff there. I hope this will help you out.

Reply:Microsoft has a free version of their Visual C++ IDE (called express or something to that effect). It's quite nice.
Reply:It depends on the OS you are using. If you're on Windows, the Visual Studio Express Edition is free for everyone.





Code::Blocks is supposed to be the leading cross-platform open-source C++ IDE out there and it's the IDE I was very excited about, but I personally think they still have too many bugs to resolve, and their support for Linux is lagging behind Windows (mostly because they get more feedback from Windows users). Besides, their "suggestion box", or whatever you want to call it (the window that pops up and displays a list of possible word matches for the characters you've typed) is very uninformative. Their interface has major flaws, and most of them are in the process of being fixed or, they're waiting for wxWidgets to fix them. Last I checked, they were in the process of moving from wxWidgets 2.6 to 2.8. You can try it and see if you like it.





Aside from Code::Blocks, if you want to code on Linux, KDevelop looks more and more attractive and I think that if you take the time to customize it, rearrange the interface, disable the non-working documentation items, clean up the extra toolbars, remove some of the unneeded tabs on the left, then you'll end up with a pretty good IDE, that actually lets you browse the project's folder and has multiple tabs. You should probably change the font too, and set the line numbers to show up by default. You can then customize your project and configure custom make's and etc. I still have to prove the previous sentence.





You could use Eclipse with CDT, but I'm reluctant to do that, and it proved to be very slow and ugly. Some people like it though.





For now, I'm just using VIM and make, but I'm occasionally coding in KWrite.





I can't say anything about Bloodshed Dev-CPP, except that I didn't like it as soon as I opened it. But don't take my word for it.





The bottom line is: they are all free, but when it comes to measuring the performance and the gains, few of them actually make it worth using. CodeBlocks might be one of them. I've had some issues with the free version of Visual C++ Express Edition, but I'm still using it on Windows, in hope the bugs will be fixed in the future.

What (in your opinion) is the best c++ IDE and why?

I do a lot more Java programming than C++, but recently I've had some schoolwork that requires C++. I use Eclipse for Java and I find it amazing. I know there's an add-in for C++ in Eclipse, but I've heard that it's not quite as nice as Java. I've tried Visual Developer and quite frankly couldn't stand the look. I was just wondering what most other programmers use for C++ and what they likes about their IDEs.

What (in your opinion) is the best c++ IDE and why?
“The best IDE” question is one of those that elicits a flamewar. That's because people tend to have their own opinions.





Visual Studio is actually very high quality. Of importance is its debugger. It's simply amazing. The alternative is GDB, which is very powerful, but not exactly intuitive. Of course, VS is also a great IDE, so there's that.





On Windows, I use Code::Blocks. It's a solid IDE, although nothing like VS. But it's definitely something you can rely upon.





I hear people recommending Dev-C++. I used that before. The project is abandoned, and has been taken up under wxDev-C++. You may want to look at wxDev-C++ because it has a GUI designer, supports multiple compilers, and is under active development.





Linux people have Kdevelop, Anjuta, and so on.





There's also editors. Don't underestimate the power of vim or emacs. They are extremely powerful editors. You could also use UltraEdit, or Notepad++, or so on.
Reply:i prefer to use the Visual Studio tools from Microsoft when developing for windows/.net. on the other hand, i work for a company that can afford the sometimes $2500 package price to obtain a copy of this suite legally.





For the more frugal among us, there is Dev-C++ which is free-ware/open-source. it looks like the classic Visual Studio IDE from before .net. it has a lot of good debugging tools including watch, breakpoints, step, trace, ....





The compiler and debugger tools used behind this IDE are the open-source gcc and gdb tools, so updates to these systems are readily available and if an issue is found, there are lots of forums to search for tips and tricks to make your perfectly good code compile like you know it should.
Reply:Visual Studio is the best one ( And I am not a Windows fan!) but it is true, a little expensive though.





There is a free IDE base on visual c++, it is called visual c++ express edition ( it a light version ) , but for school work it is more than enough. Just google it.





Good luck!
Reply:Whenever I work on a project at home (not for school or "work" (I'm an independent developer)), I use Dev C++ because of the reasons (whoever it was above me) said.





Still, VS.NET isn't bad (the one I use for school and work), and I do like its simple to use debugger and how easy it is to organize things. Aside from standards issues (generally it's more difficult to make a VS project run on multiple platforms than it is with Dev or something else (sometimes it's downright impossible)), it's a good developer. Unfortunately it costs too much, and if I didn't get mine free (from my school, and not Limewire University), I'd probably not use it at all (having not been exposed to it).





However, when I'm having fun trying out new concepts, I'll do the dangerous task of using Sally. I consider it the "Real Programmer's" C++ IDE. It doesn't have a debugger, and none of that fancy CVS stuff (at least the version I have doesn't). It's got color-coded text, can interface with most compilers, and it has the ability to manage your project visually (ie like Dev and VS's tree folder view for your project). I do this because every now and then, it's nice to remember a time when your program either worked, or it didn't, and all you had was a stop point to tell what went wrong.





Sometimes I use the Programmer's Notepad, but that's just Notepad with colored text (not near IDE status).


Can you tell me a good IDE for programming in the C language?

I need to program in the C language, NOT C++. It's for something like putting code in some chips... something for putting C code in some hardware, this is why I need it.


Now I'm at the beginning, so don't know much... the programmer I talked to, said they need a program... and first I need to write some code in C...


What IDE to use, since the last one I used was Borland C 3.1...? I want to use one for Windows.


Also, tell me where to download it from?

C compiler/IDE?

I am trying to learn the original mother of all languages, C. I need to download a text editor in which I can write C in, and a compiler/IDE for showing the executable file. Any suggestions as to what compilers/IDE's are popular for downloading?

C compiler/IDE?
I like Dev-Cpp. It's installer also installs the MinGW version of the GCC and G++ compilers, so it has everything you need to get started programming in C, and C++ for that matter:





http://bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html





What you want to download is labeled:


Dev-C++ 5.0 beta 9.2 (4.9.9.2) (9.0 MB) with Mingw/GCC 3.4.2





You can use the IDE itself as a text editor, but if you were using Notepad, you would probably save the files as WhaverYouWantToCallThem.c
Reply:If Windows is your OS, I recommend Microsoft Visual C++ Express Edition. It's a nice IDE for windows, you'll probably take off a lot faster than using archaic tools such as notepad and gcc.
Reply:borland turboc
Reply:Serach for Borland compiler it's a freely downloadable and is the best one and good editor is "Note Pad " ....
Reply:A free compiler, DevCpp, is available at www.bloodshed.net.
Reply:Netbeans, which is a java IDE / compiler, has a C/C++ module. It is free. If you aren't concerned about the IDE, gcc (GNU C compiler) is available and free.





Save files as %26lt;file_name%26gt;.c for c programs, %26lt;file_name%26gt;.cpp for c++ programs.





If you are entirely a Microsoft minion, then Visual C++ is OK. Don't become a Bill Gates zombie though. Be kind to all OS's!

A Linux C++ IDE?
you can also use eclipse
Reply:If you want to have an IDE that is extremely powerful and customizable, consider emacs. However, it's command-line driven and has a steep learning curve. The benefit of using a command-line IDE is that you can run it remotely using a shell.

Is there any C++ IDE on the mac?I really can't understand programming on Xcode?

I'm learning C++ and I migrated from a wintel machine to a mac but I can't find any free C++ IDE on the mac,I was referred to Xcode,but I can't even understand it.I'm looking for an IDE as good as Bloodshed's Dev C++,anyone know where I can find one or help with the Xcode IDE?

Is there any C++ IDE on the mac?I really can't understand programming on Xcode?
If an IDE is confusing you, you should stick to a plain text editor and the console. An IDE is just a fancy environment, providing an editor and one click steps to create a program. Macs have some really good plain text editors. You can take a look on Wikipedia or Google.





But did you take a look at the Xcode documentation? It isn’t that hard to figure out.

The Best C++ IDE and A free 2D game source code?

To hit two birds with one stone, Im quite new to C++ i've tried poking around code and I've got a book about C++ that I haven't read much of yet, but I currently use Bloodshed Dev-C++, I was wondering which is the best free IDE for C++ (not Micosoft Visual C++) and if theres any where to get free source code for a simple game like pong even!

The Best C++ IDE and A free 2D game source code?
bloodshed is good yes.





what about using linux...?!?! gcc and also get





allegro games / gfx library.. thats multi format =)





http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/





http://retrospec.sgn.net/





a lot of them games were made using c++ and some using allegro.. it will take time to learn..





the most important thing would be the game engine itself.. the rest isn't as important.





a few game makers have released their source code, so might be helpful to take a look..





free lunch design is one that released some source code amongst others.
Reply:Bloodshed Dev-C++ is the best IDE I know of, and a good site with some examples would be: http://www.cppgameprogramming.com/cgi/na...
Reply:Sorry, but for precisely 0 Notes of expenditure, Microsoft Visual C++ Express is the best (no) money can buy.
Reply:I'm a fan of Codegear products (ex. borland).. Turbo C++.





For source code of game, look in the x2ftp (http://ftp.lanet.lv/ftp/mirror/x2ftp/)
Reply:Here's an old favourite of mine - grew up on Borland and there is always Borland Turbo C++. This is a good platform to start learning on. Then one can move onto Borland C++ Builder. MS Visual Studio C++ is ok but does not have all the resources that I would like.
Reply:I prefer Code::Blocks for a free IDE on Windows. Take a look at http://wxdsgn.sourceforge.net/ (wxDev-C++ ) as well, since it gets actively developed. Dev-C++ was okay when I was a beginner, but it soon became unusable for me.
