Ditch Turbo C++ use Relo !

[Zeeshan Quireshi]

Guys , there must be many of u studying in school or college who have to use Turbo C++ because the new compilers won't compile the old format code or they don't include the borland specific-haders and the most important , that Turbo C++ being a 16 Bit aplication does not work under Windows XP/2000 .

Here's an alternative to TC that will compile the old format code just fine under windows XP and into a 32 bit executable .

Here's how u can use Borland's FREE C++ Compiler along with the Relo IDE[i use it myself for school program testing ] :

1. Get Borland's Free C++ Compiler Here
*dn.codegear.com/article/20633

2. Download the Free Relo IDE Here
*www.fifsoft.com/relo/

3. Now Install Borland's Compiler First n then Relo IDE , it will ask u for Compiler Path during setup , just provide the path where u installed Borland's Compiler n that's it, u have yor Development Enivronment Set-up and ready to Go .

Relo has a much better Code Editor than TC , and supports a mouse too

yeah bloodshed ev c++ is equally good.

and i hate turbo C (used MS Visual c++ instead)

 

[Pathik]

but dev c++ doesnt compile code by the old standards.. So there may be diffs in the code we study and the one we write.. This borland+relo is just for study purposes

will this work on vista x64?
i used tc 3.0 on win xp which does not works on vista x64.

Nice info. Thx

agree with u

but turbo c is not according to ANSI C standard, so lots of header files are obsolete now.

Thnx Zeeshan !

 

[ThinkFree]

Thanx. Hate to use Turbo C++

Yes it will run fine , i have tried it myself

Isn't the Linux distros like include GCC, which can compile C++ codes? Can it compile old codes too?
I know its a mundane question, but I'm planning to get my hand dirty with programing.

cool trying it out.....what incase if this turns out much cool !!

btw in dev C++ in compiler options there are options to support traditional aspects and ANSI standards completely !

 

[rakeshishere]

Thnx Zeeshan ..Just what the doctor ordered

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

jus checked it out i find the dev C++ interface good !!
got to download borland compiler !

Have a look At VIsual C++ Express if you wanna do Standard C++ Programming .

it's much better than DevC++(Which is now an abandoned project n no more updates r being made)

 

[int86]

Need some help.
I did what was told.
but how to do a C program, the same way we do in Turbo C.
It gives some error while compiling.
