C++ Compiler!?

[Liam]

Right, just downloaded C++ and I can't run anything as it says I don't have a compiler.
My version is Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2
Can anyone help please? :[

I know almost nothing, but a compiler is program that turns the code into an executable that the computer can run. If your using UNIX there is a built in one, but if your using windows you will either have to buy one or get free one.

Right, just downloaded C++

You cant download C++, its like saying i just downloaded HTML......

My version is Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2

That IS a compiler..... lol, its what i use....

When I try to run something it tells me I need to compile it, when I try to compile it it tells me I have an error.

maybe a line in your code is a error i have the same prob i think some new c++ isnt reconisable by the compiler cause when i try to run my programs i normally get errors

I keep getting this:

And i'm trying to view a sample.

It looks like maybe the paths are messed up. Check your compiler's configuration. There's plenty of documentation online.

I don't use Dev-C++, so I personally wouldn't know :\ .

Never used C++ myself, could anyone post the link to a decent free C++ tool with a built in compiler?

You get that error when you try to load Dev-C++??
It looks like you downloaded a linux variety, not windows.
