A C++ "compiler" has nothing to do with C++ "GUI support".

But maybe try if MinGW Developer Studio with the wxWindows development
libraries is what you want: <http://parinya.ca/>
(And use a download _mirror_ to save the poor author's bandwidth... ;-)

Cousin JanC ....

Thanks for the link to the MinGW Development Studio ....

http://parinya.ca/
[ Download .... 23 MB ] < Full-Setup > ( Installed .... 62 MB )

For quite a while I've been holding off replacing a 3+ year-old version of Dev-C++
and this C/C++ IDE provided a good alternative to try ....

I noticed that the wxWindows package added about another 40MB to the download,
but I didn't include it with the install at this as I already have the Python version ....

Maybe later if I get brave ....

The wxWindows development libraries are not part of wxPython AFAIK.
But it's possible to download just MingW DevStudio and then download &
install MinGW and/or wxWindows libraries separately.

Cousin JanC ....

Thanks for the link to yet another C/C++ IDE,
which I will reserve for later use if needed ....
<http://visual-mingw.sourceforge.net/>

However, after compiling a few small test programs
with the MinGW Dev Studio, I think it will work out fine
and is somewhat familar to me since the GUI is very similar
to the older Dev-C++ IDE that I replaced ....

| The wxWindows development libraries are not part of wxPython AFAIK.

Sorry, I wasn't very clear about that ....

I meant that for now if I want to develop in the wx zone,
that I have wxPython as an altenative ....

I did the < full-setup > install that includes everything
EXCEPT the wxWindows libs, but maybe will get them
along with the GTK dev libs later ....

It's nice to see that they offer several different install alternatives ....

Do you mean an IDE to provide a GUI environment to work with the compiler,
or a library to provide API access to GUI functions?

If you mean an IDE, check out http://www.eclipse.org/ - FAQ description:

Eclipse is an open source software development project dedicated to
providing a robust, full-featured, commercial-quality, industry platform
for the development of highly integrated tools. It is composed of three
projects, the Eclipse Project, the Eclipse Tools Project and the
EclipseTechnology Project...

You didn't say what platform you want to run on or target. A quick web
search turned up a nice summary page on "Cross-Platform Abstraction
Libraries" at http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~shlomif/abstraction/ and a DMOZ
category list at
http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Operating_Systems/Graphic_Subsystems/Toolkits/
and a C/C++ Users Journal list at
