C++ Compiler

[Gaijin]

You can use any type of Editor to write your code.

Here is a list of compilers

Most used
http://gcc.gnu.org/
http://www.mingw.org/

Now back to the editor.... DON DO IT....
If you write you C++ codes in an simple editor, you will have a hard time finding bugs and fixing them.
Code::Blocks or Dev-C++ for example, have an console which will display errors if the compiling process should fail or if your code has few mistakes, errors etc....
I would recommend you Code::Block for writing C++ codes, or even Visual C++...
Code::Blocks and Dev-C++ same as Visual Studio, come with compilers built in, so you will need to press oly one key to compile the code....

Such Applications were created so you can write faster and find errors faster, if you use a simple editor. I bet you'll quit in a day.
