Really, what does this have to do with programming on UNIX?

Since most of the other answers are asinine.
gcc and g++ are available for Windows98 via CYGWIN.
http://www.cygwin.com/

http://www.mingw.org/
http://www.bloodshed.net/
http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/
Note that gcc + g++ are downloaded separately.

Your best choice is to install Linux or FreeBSD and dump Windows.

Solaris is a nice OS, but you can't mess with kernel internals, which
can be useful sometimes. Well, maybe not for someone coming directly
from mswindows.

Isn't GCC included? If not, you can get a copy for free.

g++ is shipped with your OSX distribution. You might have to install
the Developer CD.

And how does that supply a C-compiler ???

SUN has been refusing to supply C-compiler since early 90
( they stripped it off and hoped to increase sales of
additional software)


s/Solaris/FreeBSD/g

They changed their mind around Solaris 8.0 and include GCC on their
Software Companion CD.

Quite simply: gcc is included in the media kit, and is available
as a free download. As is Sun's own compiler.

You're about 3 or 4 years out of date - do try to keep up. :-)

A lot of code into the year 2000 still was K+R compatiable and
made prototyping conditional because the only free compiler Sun
offered for so long was an archaic K+R one. pcc? 3 or 4 years may
be a long time to you, but its nothing once you get a reputation.

SGI is doing the same thing with their compiler, so the gcc port
is much easier to use now.

And most of the commercial Unixes also provide GCC on their platform in
addition to their commercial compilers.
