can i compile c++ using texpad ? (i mean, just like they way textpad deal with java)

if yes, where can i download the c++ compiler ?

i'm new to c++, anyone help ?

Yes you can download a free C++ compiler at:

http://www.borland.com/bcppbuilder/free ... steps.html

Then go to the very well written tips-page here at TextPad where Garth Fielding II will guide you through the installation process.

I did so and everything worked fine apart from one small problem that I wrote about a couple of weeks ago in this forum. Still haven't worked that one out.

Good Luck !

Hello goku!

OK, if you are compiling a console application (DOS window) of Hello World type you should probably change the capital M to a capital C in Parameters:

-w-par -tW -tWM -q $File

-w-par -tW -tWC -q $File

Try that and let us know if it helps.

It worked. You solved something which Borland people could not solve.
