Hi, 

the compiler is gcc, adaption for windows is mingw and the ide is dev-cpp.
That means, if you use dev-cpp you use gcc, one of the best compiler aviable.
It is much more compliant to the c++ standard as e.g. vc++. The ide dev-cpp
is easy to use, just right for the beginner (and other of course).
And dev-cpp, mingw (gcc) are free !

I think it would be the best choice to start with dev-cpp

greetings
Horst
