Turbo C++ 3.0

I have Turbo C++ 3.0, and after trying it, I could obviously tell that it has a dos interface.  I am new at Turbo C++ and I want to know all the differences in Turbo C++ 3.0 and the newest C++.

Turbo C++ is used to write DOS based application thus you can use the old seg:off scheme,,,

You can write graphics in Mode13h when using TC++ and so on.,, and in VC++ you can't do that...

the newest C++ compiler is VC++ for windows and it is used for Windows based apps and the interface is also win interface... In VC++ you use the flat model memory mapping...

That's about it. If you need more info let me know....

I want to here more comments first, then I will give the 5 points(yes, thats right, all 5!) to whoever has the best answer.
You can't really get any better than Viktor's answer.

C++ is a generic term.  There are many implementations of C++ available recently, such as Visual C++ or C++ Builder.
OK, i will give the answer to viktornet if he posts another answer.
So do Turbo C++ and Visual C++ have the same source codes.  If not, where can I get some cool Turbo C++ tutorials

What Turbo C++ and Visual C++ have in common is C++.  Any C++ program should compile on both of them.  However, a program written specifically for one will not compile on the other, because these compilers each add their own extensions to the C++ language.  Many of these are OS specific. Turbo C++ compiles for DOS and Visual C++ compiles for Windows, so chances are you can't mix the two.


Hey Kevin, when I'm I gonna be able to catch you when u r on-line? :-))

I moved my computer in my room so now no one is gonna be around me to distract me... I think if not today in couple of weeks I'm gonna change data with my mom's computer... so I can use hers since it's a lot faster and I can use more space for all the trash I have no my computer..
