I am to start c++ however I'm stalled in the first step
Mine is 64 bit but I can't find borland c++ for my version
Does it exist?
What should I do?
Borland 1 C++ 5.02 is a legacy 32-bit IDE. It can run on 64-bit Windows that have WOW64 installed, but it cannot produce 64-bit executables.
1. Borland is not in the developer tools business anymore, they sold their tools to Embarcadero years ago.
If you want an IDE that is a successor to Borland C++ 5.02, look at Embarcadero's free Community Edition IDE, or even just its updated free C++ command-line compiler.
Or, there are plenty of other 3rd party C++ compilers available (Gcc, Clang, MinGW, Visual Studio community edition, etc).

32-bit VC++ redistributable on 64 bit OS?
(5 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I develop a C++ Application with Visual Studio 2015 on a 64bit machine.
The platform toolset is set to Visual Studio 2015 (v140)
The code is compiled as 32bit.
The code uses dynamic runtime libaries (/MD switch), /MT is not an option.
The target machine also has a 64bit windows installed.
I understood that I need to install the Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable package on the target machine, so that all the required DLLs will be available. However, do I need to install the 32bit or the 64bit runtime (and why)?
The exectuable is 32bit, hence you need the 32bit runtime. It will install dlls which are compiled as 32bit, just like your application, and mixing 32bit with 64bit is impossible.
Using Visual Studio I am able to build and execute C++ code that uses CUDA on my workstation equipped with a geforce gtx 560 ti GPU. I have also downloaded the OpenACC toolkit from NVIDIA Developer website, and I want to install it for my Windows OS. However, I keep reading that I need a linux based OS to install, but that the PGI compiler is supported by Windows. Is it possible to install the OpenAcc for Windows and build/execute in Visual Studio?
PGI supports C and Fortran on Windows, Linux and MacOSX. C++ is available on Linux. The Portland Visual Fortran (PVF) product is a VS plugin. The C compiler is available via the command line. OpenACC is supported in both C and Fortran on Windows.
I've never tried it with Visual Studio, but I have downloaded the PGI compiler for Windows and built an OpenACC code using their trial license. They sell a product called PGI Visual Fortran which does integrate with VS, so I would expect that you can do the same with the C and C++ compilers.
i must migrate a large project from visual c++ 6.0 to visual c++ 2010 and from windows xp sp2 32bit to windows 7 64bit app.
about my project : C/C++ Objective ,not use library , the project build in windows xp 32 bit and visual c++ 6.0 ide .there are 2.2 milion line of code
what approach to this?
please help me!
Here's a list-o-links to MS docs that are as good a starting point as anything:
64-Bit Programming with Visual C++
Common Visual C++ 64-bit Migration Issues
General Porting Guidelines
Migration Tips
On top of all that you may need to deal with some language changes that are unrelated to 64-bit migration, such as the change in how variables declared in for loops are handled. The /Zc:forScope and /Zc:wchar_t options might help with some of those.
i can't find this information anywhere. I know that if you install vs2010 express on a 32bit os you need the win7 sdk to build 64 bit, but is it the same the other way round?
EDIT - I am interested in the c++ version, but I guess it's probably the same for others
thanks

By default VS2010 Express will only target Win32. It doesn't matter if you are running Win7-64, MSVC++ Express uses the 32-bit tools unless you install the SDK.
From MSDN:
64-bit tools are not available on Visual C++ Express by default. To enable 64-bit tools on Visual C++ Express, install the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) in addition to Visual C++ Express.
I have been able to successfully build and deploy C# apps from a Win 7 64bit machine onto machines running 32 bit Windows XP, Vista and Win 7 without any extra SDK. So far I have had no issues.

Generally wondering if there are multiple versions of Visual Studio 2010 to download i.e. I can only find x86 and unsure if this is the version I want for Win7 x64 [which I am running]
Are there multiple versions available or is the only release version x86 which just install x64 components?
There won't be x64 version of VS2010. For some explanations take a look at Rico Mariani's blog post.
As far as I know there is no 64 bit version of Visual Studio 2010.
See http://news.softpedia.com/news/Don-039-t-Hold-Your-Breath-for-64-bit-Visual-Studio-113943.shtml.
According to the article "customers are better off running the development platform in 32-bit emulation mode on top of 64-bit Windows. And while saying nothing about 64-bit support beyond Visual Studio 2010, the lesson for developers is don't hold your breath for x64 VS."
Not that answer you wanted.
There is no x64 version of Visual Studio...

In summary, there's no lift from a 64-bit compiler or IDE.
