Which IDE do you use?

You need to compile your source files http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/articles/7263/

i use dev c++

simply create your program and then save it. when you go to where you saved the program (in this case in .dev) there will be many files: example.cpp - example.o - example.dev and there wll also be example.exe to run your created program. :)

No, saving it will not create an .exe file. Compile and run the program in Dev-c++ with F9, or compile only with Ctrl+F9. The .exe file will be in the same directory as the .cpp file.

when you say it is in the same directory as the c++ file what do you mean.
