Licencing etc....
If your program uses Win32 stuff, either get the free borland compiler (BCC), or the personal edition of C++ BuilderX, or buy the student version fo Visual Studio 2003 Professional or Borland C++ BuilderX Professional (if you are a student) ...
If it''s not Windows specific, all the suggested compilers work fine (BCC is my favorite for that, but GCC, Dev-C++, MingGW, etc are all fine).

Just make something up
I tend to go to www.dictionary.com and start shoving together words-of-the-day until I get something suitably abstract..”We hate to see a corporation of this country promote the U.N. when we know that it is an instrument of the Soviet Communist conspiracy.”

Repeat after me:
DEV-C++ IS NOT A COMPILER. IT IS AN IDE THAT USES GCC AS ITS COMPILER.

. Who cares! It's not the end of the world if someone says dev-c++ is a compiler. Getting back on topic, I'd say go with dev-c++. I, personally, use mingw raw-just because It's easier for cross-platform projects. I also have a copy of visual c++ .NET 03 standard, which is nice, but it doesn't optimize your code (which really annoyed me because it costed a $100) [edited by - brassfish89 on November 15, 2003 8:26:34 PM]

Repeat after me:
Dev-C++ does not use MinGW, it uses MinGW by default.
Okay, sorry about being annoying. In any case, I''m pretty sure that if you go to the a Uni and use a copy of their compiler then it is under a student license and you cannot distribute it.

Heh, never mind, I''m sure some day somebody''ll ask me what the default compiler in Dev-c++ is, and i''ll be able to tell ''em!
cya!
cya!

You''ll need to download a good freeware compiler. ... I would suggest Bloodshed Dev C++.
Dev-C++ is NOT freeware.
