----------------------------------- nate Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:37 pm Visual C++ ----------------------------------- It says on the NEHE tutorial that he is using Visual C++, is it ok if I am using Dev C++. if not where should i dnwld Visual C++? ----------------------------------- Homer_simpson Fri Jun 06, 2003 9:46 pm ----------------------------------- well actually there's some dev c++ sample downloads at bottom of each tutorial... so what i do is that i dont read the tutorial i open the dev c++ sample file and read the comments on each line... ----------------------------------- nate Sat Jun 07, 2003 8:58 am still doesn't work ----------------------------------- I have tried to download the dev C++ tutorial but still there are errors when I tried to download it. 153 c:\docume~1\owner\desktop\lesson01\lesson1.cpp `CDS_FULLSCREEN' undeclared (first use this function) 153 c:\docume~1\owner\desktop\lesson01\lesson1.cpp (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once 153 c:\docume~1\owner\desktop\lesson01\lesson1.cpp for each function it appears in.) They three errors always come up. I was wondering what I was doing wrong! ----------------------------------- Homer_simpson Sat Jun 07, 2003 2:22 pm ----------------------------------- dont open the cpp file... open the project file... I used to use dev c++ too but i looked around the net... most tutorials are on vc++ sooo that's what i'm working with right now... ----------------------------------- nate Sat Jun 07, 2003 4:22 pm v c++ ----------------------------------- where did u get VIsual C++? ----------------------------------- ShadowStorm Thu Jun 12, 2003 3:24 pm ----------------------------------- you buy it!!!! :shock: ----------------------------------- Catalyst Thu Jun 12, 2003 4:25 pm ----------------------------------- yes... "buy" it :wink: ----------------------------------- Homer_simpson Thu Jun 12, 2003 5:35 pm ----------------------------------- lol yes every one "buys" it... but anyways NEHE also has dev c++ examples for it's tutorials download and use them if u want... (but i'd suggest u use V C++ cuz it's more standard and more tutorials are based on that) ----------------------------------- Prince Thu Jun 12, 2003 5:44 pm ----------------------------------- can sumone send me vc++ plz... or tell me wher u got it ----------------------------------- Homer_simpson Thu Jun 12, 2003 8:23 pm ----------------------------------- lol if it was small i'd send it to u... but it's about 70 MBS... but u can alwasy download it from kazaa...(let's not ask where people got it or to send it to u =|> ) ----------------------------------- Catalyst Thu Jun 12, 2003 9:49 pm ----------------------------------- why stop at vc++ "buy" the whole visual studio (>500 megs) ----------------------------------- Homer_simpson Thu Jun 12, 2003 10:21 pm ----------------------------------- I already have that :D i think... =/ what does the whole thing contain exactly?! ----------------------------------- Prince Thu Jun 12, 2003 10:56 pm ----------------------------------- i think it has like visual basic 6, visual c++... all thos great things for the .NET framework :D ----------------------------------- Andy Mon Sep 08, 2003 5:02 pm ----------------------------------- hey i dled visual c++ standard of kazaa, is there advanced? and if there is what is the difference ----------------------------------- Tony Mon Sep 08, 2003 5:11 pm ----------------------------------- standart will do fine. There're other packages aimed at various buisness sizes, but there aren't any difference you would be interested in. Its still the same language and same compiler. They just have some addon stuff like some over-the-network project manager or whatnot. I'm making stuff up here, but the point is - difference is minimal. Its the same as having 3 different versions of windows XP - just something M$ likes to do. Makes it look like they have more products, and get extra cash out of suckers who buy products with longer names. ----------------------------------- krishon Mon Sep 08, 2003 5:27 pm ----------------------------------- ye...but as other ppl say...for isp's and stuff use devc++, cuz its much better...once u learn opengl things can be a lot better :D. Just ask Catalyst ----------------------------------- naoki Mon Sep 08, 2003 5:30 pm ----------------------------------- i thought it was like learning edition :newbie: only professional for like, your own personal use enterprise multiple licenses for networks? ----------------------------------- Tony Mon Sep 08, 2003 6:17 pm ----------------------------------- it doesnt matter which one you use really... source code is the same (well untill you get into openGL and such... as far as I know, there's a bit of source variation to get things working) its all about the text editor and what makes it easier for you to code in. VC++ has colorcoding, argument passing help (it shows you the function line and tells you in what order to pass the arguments) and drop down menues for objects methods. VC++ is the only C++ editor/compiler I ever used and I like it. As rizzix pointed out, when I was searching for a java IDE, try them all out and see which one you like best. ----------------------------------- UBC_Wiskatos Sat Sep 13, 2003 9:12 pm ----------------------------------- hey i dled visual c++ standard of kazaa, is there advanced? and if there is what is the difference Professional doesn't have all the goodies like profilers, extreme optimization, and some other stuff. If you're not making professional programs, just get Standard, it's fine. ----------------------------------- rizzix Sun Sep 14, 2003 11:05 am ----------------------------------- optimization in VC++ sucks.. it ruins ur program. very inaccurate and horrifying. don't use it. if u need to compile an optimized app, use (the non-standard) intel compiler, or you can even try the GNU compiler (works to quite an extent). ----------------------------------- PHP God Sun Sep 14, 2003 3:16 pm ----------------------------------- why does everyone say emmess like this "M$". Do you have to pay a nickel every time you say it or something? ----------------------------------- Mazer Mon Sep 15, 2003 7:28 am ----------------------------------- yes, yes you do. well, it's 15 cents here in Canada because of the exchange rate.
