C++ Help/Compiler

Nightlive · #1 01-31-2008, 03:44 PM

So any of you CS guys out there, I need a good free C++ compiler and have a bunch of questions to ask. I tried Microsoft's Visual C++ 2008 Express but all the tests I was trying had various errors and I think I have an idea why.

But I need just a basic C++ editor/compiler and would like to talk to someone on vent for a while

Are you compiling windows based programs or simple command line programs?
If you're familiar with UNIX and the programs have no Microsoft/Windows dependencies, you can use g++ for your compilations.

I know this is gonna sound fucking stupid but I think SCL programs. Whats the main difference between the two? I know a good amount of Java not C++

Im just trying to learn the basics at the moment.
