Where can i find a free C builder to write my code?
sourceforge.net, or freshmeat.net contain several freeware development tools
Reply:Gcc, but it doesn't run on Windows, you need to be using Linux or some other Unix based OS, or you can run it on Windows using cygwin.
Reply:Possibly MS Visual C++ express is the best free choice for a newbie - it is relatively easy to use, has good integrated help.


Another good possibilities are:


* CDT plugin into Eclipse


* Netbeans + C/C++ Pack


both previous tools need java 1.5 installed.


Or if You do not need many fancy features (refactoring,...) try for example PsPad - it can be downloaded also as just a zip file (without the need to install it)
Reply:Microsoft has Visual C++ Express Edition for free at:

This gives you a nice IDE for developing your application. It is limited (to make you buy the full version), but it will get you started.





There is also GCC from GNU. This is a free, open-source command line C / C++ compiler. You can get information at:





http://gcc.gnu.org





You can download Cygwin (a Unix like shell environment) that includes GCC and other useful command line tools at:





http://sourceware.org/cygwin/





Hope that helps,
