g++ compiler on visual studio 2013


I'm kind of new to code and use builders for C++ in Windows because I always coded in Linux using the g++ compiler. I just want to know if it is possible to get a similar compiler/builder to "install" or use it in visual studio. It would be awesome if I could maybe use the g++ compiler on windows (preferably in visual studio) if it is possible?

And if it is possible, how do I go about the download and installations of it?


Solution

  • MinGW!! Great opensource G++ compiler. Follow the instructions on site. If you want something more dedicated, use Cygwin. Visual studio also has its own version of g++ with cl.
