Free C++ compiler???

Post by Jordan_C. »

Help!! I can't find a good free C++ compiler that is just a Windoze app! I found lots of DOS interface compilers, and command-line compilers, but I just want a simple compiler! HELP! Oh, I forgot to mention...NO SOURCE CODE NEEDED!!! I DON'T WANT SOURCE! I WANT AN APP!!! :'(

No matter what C/C++ compiler that you get, it my appear to be a Windows app, but that's just the IDE(Integrated Development Environment). As far as I know all of them use a command line compiler, they just sheild you from it by dumping all the output from it in the IDE window(Visual C++ does this, C++ Builder does this, and about 5 freeware ones that I've tried do this also).

Why don't you want a command line one? Under Windows, just make a batch file, that way you don't have to do all kinds of typing the same long commands over and over again.
