Not quite, I'm still using VS2008. I'll get code::blocks though I suppose.

Well, I have many pointers, but here is only one:
ALWAYS put a semi-colon after the ending curly bracket when you are making a class!
I forget I even posted this thread. But yeah, I'll try to remember this.

Har har. Need to learn how to use them though...

Wow old topic. LOL ironic. The NewDawn engine was the whole reason I learned C++ (not to be confused with my only use for it).

I did a bit of SDL using lazyfoo tuts with code::blocks a few months back . It was nice fun. I didn't read through the whole thread, so are you people doing a collab for a game or something?

Yeah, im trying to learn C++, mainly so I can make a game engine, so far im only learning the basics but I will get better, of course.
Any websites or things I should know while learning? Any tutorials I should follow?
Join Stackoverflow.com and ask the same question there :-) , you will get really higher amount of answers and really helpful answers by industry settled programmers .. also if you run in a bug / hole they will help you out :-)
And tips with C++
1. Use pen and paper for atleast 8 hours before deciding to write the code
2. Start with simple steps
3. Keep a track of pointers
4. Use Classes and Inheritance / OOP as much as possible
5. The less you write the better you code . But the program should furnish its aims.
6. Be creative
7. Open your mind .
8. Take walks when you are frustrated if C++ is not working for thing A / B
9. Debugger is your best friend but your brain and visualisation of C++ code and how it will work will act like a nice elder brother :-)
Hope they help
Happy Coding

This is very good coding advice, particularly about Stack Overflow.
A whole 8 hours planning might be a little extreme, though

Nope ... C++ is not scratch you can hardly ever generate the code on the fly when you are a beginner on C++ .. so its a good approach to think exhaustively how things are going to happen make your concepts clear and then start to codify your imagination in other case if yu dont know what you want to do in C++ you will just get confused and in lockholes
