Hello all,
I am a beginner to the C++ programming. I have some working knowledge in VB and always wanted to learn C++. I have found some learning materials in the web on the subject. I would like to know from where I can download a good C++ compiler/IDE. Would also like to know which are the platforms you all work in.. Thank you all.
If you have used Visual Basic before than you can go ahead and code C++ in Visual Studio as well by simply installing the VC++ packages.
Since you are probably already familiar with VS I would go that route because you can use the debugger and other tools since VS is well, the best IDE out there. It's obviously better for C# and VB but it has pretty good support for C++ these days.
