Hey all. I'm setting up C and C++ for CLI but for some reason the Visual Studio Dev Tools isn't properly installing environment variables. I don't want to use Visual Studio because it's on a pretty lightweight laptop.
What's the best way of compiling these without using Visual Studio and in the command line?
gcc/g++
msys2 and install mingw64 on it.
Install Gentoo
also gnu make
This is all you will ever need on GNU+Linux.
clang > gcc
cmake
C++
Almost 2018
Lol
delid
C is not good enough in 2018?
x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc
x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++
OR
x86_64-pc-msys-gcc
x86_64-pc-msys-g++
MUSL > GNU stdlib
Is it true that Code::Blocks and Dev-C++ can't use paths with spaces because MinGW doesn't allow it?
yeah, since you're running windows anyways. go with this, op.
i used to use dev-c++ for uni and it didn't have that problem. also, it came with a compiler built in so it was perfect for uni. not that one would use it for anything else.

This
is there any way to avoid using makefiles on linux?
actually installing a linux distro or BSD because MSVC is dogshit
install linux.
most distributions will have some "dev" package that includes everything you need to know.
then do some basic tutorials on how to compile programs and learn what its all doing.
any scripting language.
any other build language
meta build languages (cmake)
manually compiling
seriously just this.
>C++ Almost 2018 Lol

Do yourself a favor and install GNU/Linux or BSD. Please don't bother with programming on Windows.
cmake generates makefiles for you, but you have to script that shit.
