0 Zirus Posted June 7, 2004 Author Share Posted June 7, 2004 dev-c++ by bloodshed Thanks. I downloaded and installed it it looks good. There is one problem though... There is no <constrea.h> header file. I used this file in Borland so that it would know what simple stuff like what "cout" "endl", and common stuff is supposed to do. Apparently there is no header file of this type in Dev. I moved the file to dev from Borland, and dev doesn't like it much. What is the equalivent for dev?

0 Redestium Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Just curious why you don't want any MS stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Zirus Posted June 8, 2004 Author Share Posted June 8, 2004 Just curious why you don't want any MS stuff? well, I'm not anti-ms or anything. I run XP and 2000 in my home. I do like linux though, and when I decide to install it, I like to be able to just load in the source code and compile. You can't do that with Microsoft code. Thats why I need a straight C++ compiler. @weenur: Thanks for the info. I'll look into it. The biggest reason I was still on v5 was because I loved its Interface. It was simple, and none of this other fancy stuff I don't know how to use lol. @lime: Thanks, I'll go load those and compile now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
