Have you considered GCC? It is probably already available on your distro.
I've never had any problems with gcc...so I'd suggest that one.
gcc is probably the way you want to go.
Another vote for GCC.
Weird question. As if Linux didn't already come with a compiler... You realize that every piece of software on the entire system is compiled with GCC, right?Quote:

GCC is the most widely used. Intel C++ can also be used, as it often generates faster code (especially for Intel chips), but is not, AFAIK, free. I'm also not sure how binary compatible it is.
Well, if you're stuck having to download a compiler, I can think of no reason why it shouldn't be gcc..Quote:
