MinGW I was never able to make a full compile. It was interrupted by this or that reason. I could never get any of the examples to work.
Visual C++ Express 2005 Some of the examples worked, however only in “Release” mode.
Boost is a set of high-quality libraries that speed up C++ development. They are included in most linux distributions and some of them are already part of the C++ Standard Library. In the Windows environment, you have to install them in order to take advantage of them.

C and C++ languages are everywhere. All operating systems use them. People usually choose them because of their limitless power, velocity of execution, great portability and much more.
