Solve : C++ help?

Answer»

Hello.
I have just started C++
I downloaded a compiler called Code::Blocks. My first question is, is this the best FREE compiler for someone who is just starting out in C++?
My second question is; how do I make a application that will run in FULL screen???
My next question is; when I want to make a new project in Code::Blocks, it comes up with a WHOLE bunch of options. There are things like "Console Application", "Dynamic Link Library" and many more. What do they all mean?
thanks
bubbz for a good free ide and compiler read more here http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html

i dont know about a fullscreen window, but try this.. (fullsize app window)

#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500
#include <windows.h>
#include <Wincon.h>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <algorithm>
#include <cctype>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
HWND hWnd = GetConsoleWindow();
ShowWindow(hWnd,SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED);

string str = "UPPER-CASE";
transform(str.begin(),str.end(),str.b...
cout << str << endl;
cin.ignore();
return 0;
}
if you experience problems with that.. wait till someone ELSE comes around , im still a noob to C++ myselfDownload Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition from the microsoft website. Still the best.

http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/default.aspxi have the code in here somewhere... lol ive found a ton of different free things off the net

Quote

#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

using namespace std;

int main (int argc, char *ARGV[])
{
keybd_event(VK_MENU,0x36,0,0);
keybd_event(VK_RETURN,0x1c,0,0);
keybd_event(VK_RETURN,0x1c,KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,0);
keybd_event(VK_MENU,0x38,KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,0);
system("pause");
}

I use Dev cpp...turbo c++ is the best compiler.
an i am unable to understand wat do u mean by "full screen" is that u want to run application having GUI?
