How to boot a c++ code?

Hey Guys!
I am vedel and this is my first Thread in this Community. My question is, how i can boot a c++ code?

example code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
    return 0;
}

What do you mean "boot a c++ program" ? Compile it? You need a good c++ compiler such as Code::Blocks or VC++ 2010 Express.

Get Bloodshed... Still the best for pure C++ apps. If you intend to make apps for win32, get Visual C++ 2010 Express (it's free! :D)

>>Get Bloodshed

That compiler hasn't been updated for quite a few years now and uses an old version of MinGW. Code::Blocks is current and still being supported by its writers. Bloodshet isn't.

I wrote something like this but didn't use C++, I used asm(16 bit) plus had to write my own linker script to get it to work...

Projects like this are very interesting and the end result is generally a very simple exe that will boot the computer...I would try ams if your really interested in pursuing this.

seems like you want to get Bill and Shuttleworthy off the deal.
Do you mean it or just for little funny?
