What file must I download from

http://gcc.gnu.org/

to get a free Win32 compatible
C++ compiler? The information
on the web page is not very clear,
but I am sure people have done it
before. Thank you.

This is not topical for this group, as I'm sure you are well aware.

If you go to the "binaries" link under the "download" section of the
side bar you will find links to the various Windows and Dos versions of
GCC, including:

http://www.mingw.org/
http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/

Not entirely topical here, but what the hell... if you had looked in the
binaries section you would have found this link: http://www.mingw.org/. This
site distributes the version of GCC for the Win32 platform (MinGW). For a
complete IDE for this compiler look here:
http://www.bloodshed.net/download.html (compiler is included with this
package) .

Their compiler is non-compliant ?

[snip]

It doesn't support export.

They aim for compliance, but (like most compilers) haven't reached it
yet.

However, that's not why the question is off-topic. It's off-topic
because it is specific to a specific compiler.

simply go here http://www.bloodshed.net/download.html and you can download a
complete IDE and compiler for windows for free. The compiler is mingw,
which is a windows port of the GCC compiler. Once installed you can begin
writing programs in C++ without having to worry about make files, setting up
environment variables, etc. Very simple to use.
