Ditch Turbo C++ use Relo !

Zeeshan Quireshi · 14-08-2007, 11:23 AM

Guys , there must be many of u studying in school or college who have to use Turbo C++ because the new compilers won't compile the old format code or they don't include the borland specific-haders and the most important , that Turbo C++ being a 16 Bit aplication does not work under Windows XP/2000 .

Here's an alternative to TC that will compile the old format code just fine under windows XP and into a 32 bit executable .

Here's how u can use Borland's FREE C++ Compiler along with the Relo IDE[i use it myself for school program testing ] :

1. Get Borland's Free C++ Compiler Here
http://dn.codegear.com/article/20633

2. Download the Free Relo IDE Here
http://www.fifsoft.com/relo/

3. Now Install Borland's Compiler First n then Relo IDE , it will ask u for Compiler Path during setup , just provide the path where u installed Borland's Compiler n that's it, u have yor Development Enivronment Set-up and ready to Go .

Relo has a much better Code Editor than TC , and supports a mouse too

Thanks for the info Zeeshan

thanks a lot .

Great!! Thanks!

yeah bloodshed ev c++ is equally good.

and i hate turbo C (used MS Visual c++ instead)

Pathik · 15-08-2007, 12:17 AM

but dev c++ doesnt compile code by the old standards.. So there may be diffs in the code we study and the one we write.. This borland+relo is just for study purposes

sachin_kothari · 15-08-2007, 12:20 AM

will this work on vista x64?
i used tc 3.0 on win xp which does not works on vista x64.

casanova · 15-08-2007, 12:51 AM

Nice info. Thx

agree with u

but turbo c is not according to ANSI C standard, so lots of header files are obsolete now.

BBThumbHealer · 15-08-2007, 11:30 AM

Thnx Zeeshan !

Thanx. Hate to use Turbo C++

Yes it will run fine , i have tried it myself

src2206 · 17-08-2007, 08:03 PM

Isn't the Linux distros like include GCC, which can compile C++ codes? Can it compile old codes too?
I know its a mundane question, but I'm planning to get my hand dirty with programing.

a_k_s_h_a_y · 17-08-2007, 08:37 PM

cool trying it out.....what incase if this turns out much cool !!

btw in dev C++ in compiler options there are options to support traditional aspects and ANSI standards completely !

rakeshishere · 17-08-2007, 08:47 PM

Thnx Zeeshan

..Just what the doctor ordered

a_k_s_h_a_y · 17-08-2007, 08:48 PM

jus checked it out i find the dev C++ interface good !!
got to download borland compiler !

Have a look At VIsual C++ Express if you wanna do Standard C++ Programming .

it's much better than DevC++(Which is now an abandoned project n no more updates r being made)

int86 · 20-08-2007, 09:47 PM

Need some help.
I did what was told.
but how to do a C program, the same way we do in Turbo C.
It gives some error while compiling.

Ron · 21-08-2007, 03:34 PM

hey how to compare three integers in C++.........I want to find the smallest no among three digits...........

you could use If statements or else you could take them in an array , sort them in ascending order n then take the first element .

Ron · 22-08-2007, 11:09 AM

Buddy I am New To C++..
I would be thankful if u could post the code........By using if statement.......

ofcorz.gcc is better.u can get Anjuta GUI for c/cpp programs and gcc complies well with latest standards ISO,ANSI

.Yes Linux is best for programming not only c,c++ -java,.net(mono) and perl,python and a lotta options.even VS.net ppl are woed a lot by qt libs of trolltech.

i Guess you didn't read the first post !

it's specially for those who want to compile old code with borland specific libraries that are taught in school .

praka123 · 22-08-2007, 06:47 PM

^ I think the answer includes that too(old gcc versions)

Thank you vary much for the info

. Could you please explain what is Anjuta GUI? Is it available in debian?

Basically I am not in IT, and I plan to learn programing just as a hobby, long back I learnt a little bit of C, but never really to got the time to shrpen my skills.

Well Anjuta is a free C++ IDE(Intergtrated Development Environment) although you probably won't need it for basic C/C++ programming as Gedit or Kate will work just fine

Also , i suggest that if you're gonna start out with programming Learn a Language like C# or Java instead of C/C++ .

Would you mind telling me what is the difference between C# (I'm not sure how do you pronounce it) and C/C++? Thank you for the suggestion still

. In this context, I remeber that one of my programer friend told me to learn Java because it also provides a lot of freelance oppertunity? Is that true? I have a steady job, so I can devote quality time in learning Java and freelance oppertunity will surely be an extra motivational boost

Yes,it is available in Debian.just use synaptic or apt-get install anjuta.dont use source compiling etc.FYI Anjuta(written by an Indian) home @:
Anjuta is a versatile IDE for C and C++, written for GTK/GNOME. Features include project management, application wizards, an onboard interactive debugger, and a powerful source editor with browsing and syntax highlighting.
