Posted: 22 Jan 2008 07:42 GMT Total Posts: 583 | i realize this is a bump and i apologize in advance. but, dev C++ is pretty cool, but alot of times i know there isnt a mistake, but it finds thing on it that it thinks are mistakes. and it may just be me and my limited coding ability, but sometimes the compiler is glitchy. or maybe its just my old copy. maybe. but visual is too flashy for me. i like those down-home programs that dont take a year to start up. id prefer dev C++ if itd work better for me.

Posted: 25 Sep 2008 15:23 GMT Total Posts: 144 | well I now use Dev C++ on windows and the gcc one on Ubuntu. gcc isn't really a IDE, but I don't really use one of those. I guess my programs aren't complicated enough yet. I agree with Hydralisk, flashy = bad sometimes. I once saw a loading bar on an operating system that sent flashing pulses along its length. I think they made it so that ADD kids would have something to stare at. |
