Anyone that can suggest a site with a c++ tutorial of some kind for someone never programmed in c++ (got some experience in java though)?

    I have a book on C++ written by the Waite Group, have yet to delve into it though...

    Guess I'll probably [b][i]Waite[/i][/b] a little longer... heh heh

    What's a good develpoment base to use for C++ ???

    I have Visual Studio 6, should I go with that?

    Definitely go with the Visual Studio Jack. I have used versions 4 and 5 myself for VB and C++ in the past and it's an excellent development base. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    I use Visual Studio 6, and it is easily the best I have found. Sure, M$'s compiler isn't completely compliant with the standards. But the editing environment is so nice and so easy to use.

    Visual Studio is fine for large projects, but starting out learning, when you don't need all the overhead, I'd suggest the CYGWIN compiler under the PCGrasp environment... it's very compact, I **think** its completely ANSI compliant, and you don't have to learn the environment before you learn the language...

    There isn't exactly lots to learn about VC++ if you're a beginner.
    Create new console project. Create new .c file. Type in code. Click "Run".
    Hell, if you're worried about the environment, use notepad and a console compiler.

  • RubberEagleRubberEagle What's a rubber eagle used for, anyway?
    I started programming C/C++ with TurboC/BorlandC, but as soon as you use multiple files, I very much recommend using VC(6). It's much more comfortable... (and you can pack much more lines of code onto the screen *hehe*)
  • PJHPJH The Lovely Thing
    Yeah, I started with Borland too. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    I started with Code Crusader (a Linux one). It was a real piece of shit.
