      Try www.mingw.org. The mingw distro aims to provide native Win32 support without the Cygwin layer. Best regard, Paul. Paul Selormey, Bsc (Elect Eng), MSc (Mobile Communication) is currently Windows open source developer in Japan, and open for programming contract anywhere!

        DJGPP is a port of the GNU C compiler to DOS, it allows you to compile DOS based protected mode apps. (I used this years ago, so I don't know how up to date it is) Your other option is CYGWIN (I can't seem to find a working URL at the moment) I think it allows you to compile win32 apps. (I have not used it myself) I'm sure there are others.

            The URL: http://www.cygwin.com/ - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

              While other people have pointed you to sources for GCC, I have to wonder, are you simply looking for a free C++ compiler? If so, you might be happier with the free borland 5.5 C++ compiler at http://www.borland.com/bcppbuilder/freecompiler/ Also, you might want to keep an eye on http://www.openwatcom.org/ for a free version of the Watcom compiler when it's released.
