Someone teaches me how to compile (c++)?

[Fernando Sousa]

I want to learn to program in C + +, and for that I try to not only learn the language from a theoretical as well, in a practical way. I'm wandering through sourceforge.net seeking applications for windows, written in C + +, preferably games (more precisely chess), and since its source code is available. Even if the source of these below are available here, I can not handle them out to generate. exe. If possible please indicate other projects.

http://cinag.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cinag/?view=tar;
http://download.codeplex.com/Project/Download/FileDownload.aspx?ProjectName=as (this is the assault cube);
and PouetChess (its source code is easy to find here is the basic link:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pouetchess/.
I have several IDEs for C + +, including Visual Studio C + + 2008.
Please teach me to handle SOURCE FILES and the HEADER FILES to generate the .exe
Thanks.

If you are just starting out I would advise to buy a book on it. There is alot to c++ or any programming language for that matter. Start there. Also, the source code you have for the game wont compile probably because you dont have some of the libraries included on ur computer. You will have to include them, and if they are a custom header, then you are out of luck, or must code it yourself.
