Dev-C++ for Windows

It is latest version. i think this is best compiler then turbo c

Yes i recommend it, because its a good compiler for biggners

As advertised it is a no frills c++ env.. I was wanting to migrate to c++ from VB6 many years ago and wound up giving up, then I got turned onto bloodshed and was able to tolerate it enough to start learning. There is none of the usual presumptive BS one would find with environments like boreland and VC++ that just end up confusing a noob, and its solid enough that even gaming code like hexen can be made to do its thing. Pros: Easy and straightforward, it's like it was made for all the c++ books and tuts. Fairly standard c syntax, and since the syntax is the most brutal thing about C/c++ for those coming from basic and foxpro traditions, this is good. Cons: ugly. If your coming into c/c++ from VB or FP its dos like ide can be a little daunting at first.

Free, easy, incredible.. I first started using Dev-C++ a long time ago - about 5 1/2 years ago to be exact. I still use it, especially since as a computer science major I find myself programming in C++ more than I did for leisure. It is incredible, in my opinion, that something free like this can be so feature filled and powerful. It is good for absolute beginners, and the experienced alike. Unlike Visual C++, however, there is a bit more overhead in regards to win32 API programming than in Visual C++. This doesn't exactly make it *bad* - I think it helps since it forces you to re-enforce your knowledge of how to code windows, forms, menus, etc on your own from scratch.The interface is very user friendly, all the menus are organized in a logical manner, the project windows and the like are laid out in a neat, and not really annoying fashion. You can configure any library you want with it, either manually, or using the DevPak system, which is unfortunately not supported anymore. A real shame since it saved a LOT of time and allowed me to spend less time installing the SDL libraries, for example, and actually USING said libraries.Another reviewer listed the use of an "outdated" compiler as a con. The issue with this is that you can set it up with any compiler you like, you can even get the program WITHOUT a compiler, without Dev-C++ configured to use the compiler that is packed with it usually. There is a downside though, the debugger does not work properly. There are fixes though, which means you will have to do a little work to find them / get it working right, but it isn't AS BIG an issue as some people make it seem, really.Overall, I say Dev-C++ is well rounded, powerful, and great for small and large project alike. You have to do a little more overhead in some cases, but if you are dedicated to learning C++, or coding projects - for fun or otherwise - it is worth it. Pros: - Free- Easy to set up- Can be configured to use whatever libraries you want- Support for pretty much any form of C / C++- Doesn't add unnecessary bloat to your programs/projects Cons: - Debugger doesn't work correctly out of the box

AVG and Dev C++ 4.9.9.2 complatibility. Hey when i installed dev c++ 4.9.9.2 everytime i compile and run my c++ program i get a warning from my AVG saying that the compiled file has a Trojan horse Generic 17.AOVR in it. anyone knows why?

For beginners. I've found this IDE very usefull. For all of you that are thinking to start to program in C++, and want a clean editor and an easy compiler, this is without doubt the one.It's robust, powerfull and features an exellent debugger. Pros: Easy to useGood text editorGood compilerGood debugger Cons: Let me think...
