Title: Which C/C++ package?
Post by: Cyberus on July 19, 2005, 02:45:40 PM

I used to use an old version of Borland when I was at university, can't remember which version, just that it came on  loads of HD floppies.
Anyone recommend any decent C/C++ packages (for Windows)?

Do a quick search on sourceforge.net for DevCpp .  It's got a nice GUI and is based on the MinGW build of GCC.  It's very popular too (as any free Windows compiler would be expected to be) so you should have no difficulty finding help with it.

If you want an IDE that's almost identical to the Borland Turbo C/C++ DOS interface (same shortcut keys, layout, etc.) then check out RHIDE (http://sourceforge.net/projects/rhide).  It's originally for DJGPP but I believe you can use it with other compilers.
