I like the Dev Bloodshed compiler. I recommend it to anyone who likes C or C++. Get it at http://www.downloads.com

#include <iostream.h>
int main()
{
cout<<"Hello World";
return 0;
}


thats the hello world.
i use the DJGPP compiler for windows.. it works fairly well DJGPP

gcc hello.c -o hello.exe
to compile with it.

Game Coding UK has some excellent forums for discussing all aspects of C++, including the game libraries that can be used and DirectX.

#include <iostream.h>
void main()
{
cout<<"Hello World";
}


Umm, doesn't that work also? Been a while since I wrote a c++ program, but it is a whole line shorter then xmaddness' program

souleman:


yes it works perfectly

but int main() should be prefered over void main() coz it will return a value back to the OS/parent program from where it was called. this indicates wether it was successful or not according to the return value.

void() is normally used for functions. though in small/basic programs there is no harm in using void main()
