Lately, I've been gearing towards OO programming than structure programming such as C. Just a few weeks ago, I wanted to write a C program and I totally forgot where to start because I no longer have my Linux box with me. On my Windows box, I have Visual Studio for C# and Eclipse for Java. After googling around the web for about ten minutes, there is a possible way to develop C programs in Visual Studio. Below are the steps.
File -> Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 -> Visual Studio Tools -> Visual Studio Command Prompt 2005
At the command prompt, call notepad to create a new C file. The command for this is "notepad test3.c"
Write your code, for testing purposes, I wrote a "Hello World" program
Now compile your code by going back to Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt and type in "cl test4.c"
Finally, execute your C program by calling the name of your program. For example, mine would be "test4" and the result gets displayed is "Hello World"
