Royalty-Free Free C++ compiler that works on Vista?

I want a C++ compiler on which I can make apps for commercial purposes without having to pay royalties and should work on Vista. If it is GCC, please tell me how to install it.

Royalty-Free Free C++ compiler that works on Vista?
Okay, there is just one problem in discussing this. Binaries compiled under GCC can access no more than 32 megabytes of memory under Vista. Period. This is a deliberate security setting which Microsoft absolutely refuses to change, no way no how.





Dev-C++ is a front-end for GCC. They provide excellent instructions for installing it. Go here:

I do recommend something, and you don't HAVE to spend money but I recommend that as well. Digital Mars's C++ compiler is -- as good as GCC. And I'm writing this on Linux so even though I'm not running the compiler I'm using Gcc's libraries. It supports the full ANSI standard better than Visual C++ OR Borland C++ (apart or combined). You can download it for free if you want to run it from the command line but I recommend the 42+ bucks to buy the cd:

It's just an awesome product and no you won't have to pay royalties.

im pretty sure that this is the same as the other guys but if not then here u go.








also, dev c is a great program considering it is free and royalty free, but micrsofts visual c++ express is easier to use, but it is not royalty free or free, : ( , the free version is only a 30 day trial, if u want easy to use, then u hav to dish out the money, but i would recommend bloodsheds dev c++
