Windows.h in C using Turbo-C

I cannot find windows.h in my include folder of Turbo C and hence cannot work with the Win32 api's

Can someone please suggest a workaround?

thanks

Solution

  • You could download Borland C++ 5.5. If memory serves, it can handle Windows programming "out of the box" (Warning: but it doesn't include an IDE of any kind, only command-line tools).

    Alternatively, you could look into any of several alternatives such as Dev-C++, Visual Studio Express, Cygwin, or Digital Mars. Edit: Or Code::Blocks, Ultimate++/TheIDE, NetBeans, or Eclipse CDT.
