Very nice but the default auto-indent woupd break my heart as I depend
on indentation. This is how a loop is formatted by default.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int a = 0, b = 7;
for (a = 0; a <= b; ++a)
{
printf("Hello again\n");
}
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
That } that fails to align as it closes the "for" loop really puts me
off. If anyone knows how to fix this, this looks a fine compiler. Is
it good in the opinion of more experienced C programmers?
Is Visual C++ Express a good compiler?
Is there another for the Win32 platform that is recommended?
VC++ is *NOT* recommended. Because it even does't know the common
sense! When I had to use it in a lab of my university, it even
highlighted the word 'new' and 'this' in my **C** code. And moreover,
it always gives fewer warnings, most of which are proved to be very
important, than gcc.
Dev-C++ is smaller, and I think, it is better than VC++. ;-p
