I was wondering if the CodeWarrior compiler was any good, ''cause I heard it''s better than MSVC++ 6 and I heard it was cheaper too. Can anybody give me some info?

It''s good, but personally I like Visual Studio 6 way better, but if your coding on Linux, CodeWarrior sure beats vi and xgdb

CodeWarrior rocks!
At least on the Mac, where I have to use it.

It is easily on par with VC++

I actually like Borland C++ Builder best for Windows.
It has by far the best implementation of the C++ standard and it is reasonably priced.

And if you need to develop tools it has all the VCL RAD development capability of Delphi.

SteveC:
lol resonalby priced? who are you bill gates? =P I was just checking in to it last night and the cheepest I found was $1?? for the standered edition the enterpise edition was like $2599 or something... damn.... anyways yea its a damn good compiler... I''ve got Turbo C++ I think like 2.5 or something... I would use that but it only makes 16-bit windows apps =(... no good for the stuff I do... =(

I did find a free version of it... from the borland site... but no IDE and I''ve had enough problems with those kind.... anyways... where did you give your version? how much? which edition? ect....

=P

Re: Borland prices

True, the enterprise edition is ~ $3000 but unless you are doing multi-tiered web database development, why would you want it?

The standard edition is a very good option. And at a reasonable price ~$100.

The professional edition just gets you more VCL components and the source code. That you can get an upgrade price ( for just about any previously existing compiler for ~$250 )

I got my latest version, C++ Builder 5.0 direct from borland for about $250 - pre-ordered I think.
But I had first bought into them with Borland C++ 4.5 a number of years ago.
