    dev compiler?

    Hi guys, my college uses the dev compiler for C++, I have Visual Studio at home for my C++.

    I want to switch to dev. The way we current compile our C++ files at college is by command line g++ 0 file file.c (something like this, can't remember the exact format)

    Anyway, I'm looking for some info on where I can download this, perhaps with a nice IDE environment too for the coding, any ideas guys?

    Don't know, what "dev" is, but g++ is part of the GNU Compiler Collection, the documentation for which is available online. For a nice IDE, have a look at eclipse, a very powerful multi-language IDE.

    Oh right, you never heard of dev c++? I thought it was quite standard after Visual Studio C++

    Dev-C++ is not a compiler, but an IDE based on windows ports of the gcc compiler.

    To answer your original post, you can find info on it (and places to download it) by typing "dev c++" into www.google.com. I don't know if you find an IDE on top of an IDE, but nothing is impossible.
