visual C++ is an IDE with a great debugger. Codewarrior has a nice debugger as well.

gcc's pretty good too... you'll need to find an IDE for it though. My belief is that Microsoft's is the best IDE bar none, at least for Windows.

I got Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Standard Edition. It's really easy to use for a beginner... that makes me like it a lot.

i personally like metrowerks codewarrior, the compiler and debugger are nice, plus you can do a variety of different object oriented coding on it

Click to expand...

What? The coding is always the same, it's all the same language...

gcc, vim, and gdb have always worked well for me. And they are free

Personally I go for Dev-C++ with mingw32. I have visual c++, but I don't really like it. It has always been too big....
I've heard alot of good things about codewarrior although I haven't had the chance to use it. If I were to pay for one it would be Borland's C++Builder.
