After using Dev-Cpp 4.01 for quite a while now, I´m beginning to look for other alternatives, since I have advanced in skill and is starting to move in other directions then pure C++. For learning other apis, i.e opengl and directx, which are neccesary for multimedia development, what are my alternatives?
I know that Ms Visual C++ 6.0 is the most accepted dev. environment for directx and Borland is more sutible for opengl usage. What other alternatives do I have and what are the pros and cons with these dev. environments. Also info and advantages and disadvantages with other compilers such as Watcom, DJGGP and other dev. solutions are welcome.
I´m thinking of developing an emu, what alternatives do I have and in what direction should I go towards. For now I´m thinking of a Z80 emu, are there any other simpler things such as calculators that one can emulate and where do I find info on these.
I would be helpful if someone with real knowledge could answer these questions and with links to more information.
