Hi Gatis,
  I thought that I should let you know of a couple of tutorial sites =
that have helped me with C/C++

http://www.graylab.ac.uk/doc/tutorials/C/    and
http://www.graylab.ac.uk/doc/tutorials/CPP/

I hope they help.

Hi all!

I've just started with some OpenGL... It's so cool!! 8-)
So, I've made up some cubes 'n stuff, but it seems like the lens is wierd, or

Hi,

Yes you need to download this file from http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/setup.zip
sorry that this module is not in the main Dev-C++ package.

Hi Gatis!

    My suggestion is to read the book "Thinking in C++" written by Bruce
Eckel, fully downloadable from www.BruceEckel.com (both volume 1 and 2). Go
to the site and follow links.
    Hope this help!

To whom it may concern:

I am new to C++ programming and Dev-C++.  I have downloaded and installed
version 4 and updated it to 4.01.  When trying to run the Setup Creator,
after specifying which files to include, I get the error message:  "Cannot
open file C:\DEVCPP\Bin\Setup.exe".

A quick glance in the bin directory reveals that there is no Setup.exe file
there.  Is the Setup Creator pointing to the wrong directory, or am I
missing a file?

Thanks,

krs.

Heap is the memory used for dynamic allocation. So heap error is an
error using this. I would thought about it as not an ordinary allocation
error, but something that is about "confusing" the heap.

If you have NO programming experience, C/C++ is the hard route. Learning a 
scripting language (Python or Visual Basic etc..) is the less stressful 
approach to getting your feet wet. Some people, with no experience,  can 
get thrown into the swimming pool and swim, but most tend to sink.

I also have found that learning on your own is a great way to learn, but 
getting the basics down first is a must. C/C++ is one of the most difficult 
languages for new programmers.

C/C++ is definitely worth learning, but is not the best path to go when you 
have no previous programming experience.

Thats my $.02

98% of what's makes me so knowledgeable on my own you cant put another

You may find this information ( How to program in C )

Now i disagree with that. :) I learned C on my own (Teach Yourself C in 21
Days and K&R) and now i am learning C++ on my own (Teach Yourself C++ in 21
Days and currently reading Bjarne Stroustrup's "The C++ Programming
Language" Special Edition).

 To learn C++ is not a prerequisite to know C or another programming
language. I am not advertising a book but speaking of my knowledge if he
reads Teach Yourself C++ in 21 days he will become an efficient C++
programmer. After all C++ is a multiparadigm language (that's why is so
huge) and you need not know it all so as to write efficient code. If he then
wants to learn it all, he can proceed in Special Edition (1000 deep thinking
book).

C++ is not an alien language, but written by humans for humans to do our job
in an efficient way.

From my experience, if he has to choose between C & C++, my advice is C++
since it has high level constructs (more easy to work with than low level
C). As for the efficiency of the code, C++ programs have the same speed or
better. Also if you write code in the right style, you have no need for
manual memory allocation & deallocation and thus possibility of errors. And
many more benefits.

I suggest take a look at one interview.

The only thing one needs to learn C++ programming is wish to learn it. :)

If you want to learn C++ well, you must read books. I suggest you begin with
"Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days", by Jesse Liberty, Sams Publishing. There
are translations in various languages, e.g. in mine it is translated with a
name which in english means "C++ manual" but you can find it by the
publisher which is Sams Publishing.

 I hope i was helpful.

Hi,

it compiles OK under both Dev-CPP 4.0 and C++ Builder 5.0. It seems to
run and work fine. If you are getting linker errors, have you library
directories set up correctly? And what excatly do you mean by linker
referencing heap errors? I always thought heap errors are runtime
errors, so they cannot occur at link time. I didn't take care of the
heap at all. Under both compilers I just created a new console project
with default settings - for Dev-CPP see appended files. Could you send
me yours?

Thanks

Hay thanks. It is now obvious. However, now when I compile I am getting
link errors.
They referance heap errors. How do you initialize the heap??
