[Alwaleed2]

I need a C compiler that works on Windows XP

Try Borland Builder. Works on XP fine. Or you can download the free compiler 5.5.

If you would like an IDE front end for MinGW then Quincy is quite good:

you can use these compilers
microsoft is giving away the 2005 beta for visual c++

or i use digital mars
becouse its the only one that type converts properly

i program for proteus dlls only using it but i have tried it withlots of sources inmfc etc etc and it works perfect for xp

will create the proper linking for comport classes etc
so well worth the very little cash this product costs as a one off shareware fee

www.digitalmars.com

you can pay and download the iso or you can get a cd mailed to you
if you dont live in the usa i advise downloading the iso via credit card payment
{it accepts by pay pal more types than they advertise}

i realise its not as free as lcc or minigw or even the beta 2005 visual c++

however it works far better
for many data type conversions

ie what should be legitimate functions conversions
have data loss errors and this fails to compile in others

distant classes fail to construct etc without typing listings
in all the others i tried
it also produces files with very small footprint and sizes good memory structures and use levels and very little resource leeks but is a little less friendly at first
till you take a good look over it


i toy with idea to download borland
?is there an ide for this ?? thats free

What is wrong with visual studio? It works fine with XP. You can also use cygwin with gcc, its free too.
