Integrated Development Environment They have all the tools integrated

− Editor− Compiler− Debugger− [Publisher]− [Documentaries ]

Know your Compiler

Use the most of your compiler Be Aware of compiler specific syntax, which is not supported by

ANSI/ISO C− Example:

Microsoft C/C++ 8 : [ defining an array trough cli ]

• int *rint[,] = new int *[10, 10];

gcc:•long long• <?= and >?=

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 It’s from Microsoft. Uses Microsoft .net C/C++ compiler Based on .net 2 Also support other language [ basic, J#, C#, Pascal! … ] Too expensive! But first class IDE. Complete suite [ compiler, framework, Editor, Debugger,

Publisher, MSDN, etc.] Compiler command:

− cl main.c − cl /c main.c

Dev-CPP

Free-OpenSource-GCC base [ included ] Compatible with gcc & gdb For windows! CVS support

Eclipse

Sponsored by IBM IDE for Java ( mostly )/ Cpp/ Python/ GWT … For both Windows and Linux

TurboC / C++Builder

Made by Borland Small & Easy but inefficient For DOS, altough it runs under windows too.

The borland company was bought by Microsoft, nowadays a new version of C++Builder has been released.

Linux/Unix Environment

The programmer’s heaven!

Birthplace of GCC.

KDeveloper! Emacs [ just Editor + gdb ] VIM [ just Editor + make ]
