Solve : Anything better than MSVC++??

Answer»

As the title entails, I'd like to know if there's any better IDE than Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition. The DEBUG mode LAGS to *censored*, and once it even disconnected me from the internet. Maybe that was just my ROUTER resetting itself... again... Also, builds take forever and sometimes it even crashes on me when I have a loooong code >_>; I've already tried Dev-C++ and it didn't really work out too well xD. Anyways, a little help please? =/Check out the link, it has all major C++ IDE's free and proprietary.

Although watcom C++ seemed at least as good, if not better then VC++.Quote from: BC_Programmer on May 19, 2009, 07:05:08 PM

For me, all the visual studios are laggy as heck when debugging and starting up, I got rid of them because they were taking up tooo much space for my needs.Version six isn't laggy at all. Ctrl+Alt+T shows up instantly, just like VB6's Ctrl+J.

now the .NET environments, on the other hand...Quote from: BC_Programmer on May 19, 2009, 07:39:45 PM

I mean like the 2008 ones...well, you did say "All"...Quote from: BC_Programmer on May 19, 2009, 07:50:45 PM

I meant all the 2008 ones. They're fairly BULKY (if you can't even INSTALL Maple Story) and very slow.2008 barely runs on my XP machine. 2005 is better. but still I ask myself why I bother since I never use them.

The professional editions come with the MSDN library, though, which I find fairly handy. I've pretty much read everything in the April 2000 MSDN library snapshot that I got with Visual Studio 6.0 a few years ago (I'm dead serious- I was reading KB articles for programs I had never even heard of- it was reading material, after all)VBS 2008 runs fine on mine XP!
