BORLAND C COMPILER DOWNLOAD SOFTWARE
We need to download two software packages: We'll be using my favourite text editor, EditPlus, but other programmers' text editors can be setup in a similar fashion. To overcome this learning curve a little, this tutorial will guide you through downloading and setting up the free tools, and setting up a nice friendly Windows interface to work from. No buttons to click, just all sorts of magic invocations that have to be typed in by hand at the command prompt (the what?). The main problem with this free C++ compiler is that it's very hard for the average computer user, brought up on Windows, to use. If you're a command line freak and want to compile under DOS, forget it - and use Linux.
BORLAND C COMPILER DOWNLOAD 32 BIT
These tools look like they run in DOS, but are full 32 bit Windows programs, and will only run in Win9x and NT. (Microsoft's Visual C++ is presented by Microsoft as being simply a 'Windows Compiler', so their terrible adherence to standards might be forgiven - they are still using a 1996 draft of the C++ standard.). This compiler is fast, free, and has the best compliance to the new (1998) ANSI C++ of any compiler out there. Presumably you want to learn and use C++.
Why would you want to use this C++ compiler? I assume you are capable of downloading and installing a file by yourself, and are using some variant of Microsoft Windows.
The aim of this tutorial is to get beginners up and programming in C++, easily and cheaply, using a nice friendly replacement for Borland's own expensive GUIs. These are the core of the retail Borland programming tools, like Borland C++ Builder - all the power that runs these expensive products, but without the fancy, user friendly graphical interface - you have to pay for that. They are giving away are the command-line compiler tools and libraries. In mid-February 2000 the people responsible for Borland's C++ products made the core of their product line available as a free download.
