C Compiler ??

Hi ! I have a windows xp titanium and I need a C compiler !!


I have searched with google, yahoo... but in vain.


So please tell me when can I find one.


And thank you a lot.

C Compiler ??
I've always liked GCC. You can get one version of it for Windows here:


http://mingw.org/download.shtml





Howvever, I've found it more useful to download a development environment called Dev-C++. It inclues the MinGW version of the GCC and G++ compilers. This will install everything you need to compile C (and for that matter C++) programs.





You can get it here:


http://bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html





I recommend the download under the label "Dev-C++ 5.0 beta 9.2 (4.9.9.2) (9.0 MB) with Mingw/GCC 3.4.2"
Reply:You can use Unix C compilers on Windows using this package:

Reply:Hi,


you can get Visual c++ express which supports all the c code you could want. It's free, just google it and download it.


You can also get GCC for windows, which is a completely free and full compiler (but it lacks a text editor, it's ONLY a compiler this is a good option but not for people who are just starting out)


Bloodshed Dev-C++ also supports c code I think. It's also pretty good.





look at this site:

giant list of free compilers!
Reply:Try Microsoft Visual C++ express, you can download it free from Microsoft Website. I don't think it does a Windows Genuine Advantage check before downloading so you should be OK with titanium edition. You can compile .EXEs and .dllls but some of the more advanced stuff is disabled.





I've used it at work to create some terminal based 32bit .EXEs and it worked fine.





Being C++ its backwards compatible with ANSI C although there are some differences in the way some of the standard libraries are implemented.
