Ubuntu Linux 6.06 LTS C++ Compiler
 

Does anyone here know of a good C++ compiler for Ubuntu Linux 6.06LTS? Preferably available by means of apt-get or wine.

Dev-C++? I couldn't find it for Linux...

-- Alex; any help appreciated

Your compiler is the actual program that converts the source code into computer binary. The only C++ compiler available for Linux that I know of is g++, which is based off of gcc and is usually packaged together. It can be downloaded by using apt-get.

I'm wondering if you mean IDE. Integrated Development Environments provide a text editor with syntax coloring, a way to organize multiple files in a project, and when you press the compile button, it calls a compiler, in Linux this means it will run gcc/g++. There are many IDEs available for Linux; a while back I posted a few links:

All of these will work on Ubuntu, so feel free to try them out.

Hope this helps
