Of course!

You can use GNU C++. The easiest way to do this is with the Dev C++ IDE:

or perhaps http://www.mingw.org/ or http://www.cygwin.com

Enjoy.

I have Dev C++ but where can I find e-books, online tutorials for it? I'm cheap and only have ONE book. I will buy more as I continue learning C++.

C++ is the same with every compiler (except from some small exceptions and bugs in certain ones), if that''s what you meant. Try cplusplus.com or cprogramming.com for some introductory tutorials.

i''m talking about programming in windows with c++ (i already know some c++)
a good place to get mingw for windows is from the mame site:

http://www.mame.net/download.html

just download mingw_for_mame.zip, unzip it, add the bin dir to your path and it''s installed.

There''s some useful win32 info/tutorials at the following...
