Compiler Recommendations

Post by Ittiz »

I've only really dabbled in C++ programming. I've got Win7 and previously I used Visual Studio. What compilers do you guys recommend for this project? I'd like to make changes to the code, but since I recently replaced my computer I haven't installed compiler.

VS 2013 is probably your best bet. You've used it before and there are other Pioneer developers using it so you've got help there if you need it. The Express version is free and can compile Pioneer without issue.

Yes vs2013 if you're on Windows 7/8/8.1, if you've got any problems just ask me.
Alternatively you can try the Code::Blocks IDE and GCC compiler by following Luomu's steps in this thread http://pioneerspacesim.net/forum/viewto ... ?f=3&t=110 but beware that it is a little bit more complicated.
