Hello I'm a student of Science Computer, wondering is there any apps for Mac that can run Dev C++ since now I'm using VMWare Fusion and it feel sluggish (even i got 16gb ram now) So feel free to share with me.

XCode?

Or if you're comfortable with the command line, then gcc.

Xcode IDE can do the trick, only got one issue. If your coding need use windose library, then sorry cannot. You have to use windose OS. Other than that, Xcode can pretty work with it, C/C++ no issue, mate smile.gif

Bootcamp.
Always run your coding environment in native layer.
Microsoft Studio, for example, with all the auxiliary tool such as intellisense does need big processing power.
Just boot in your Windows rather than running your windows via fusionware/parallel.

not at all, fair to say. It has got a real time debug mode where you can identify errors right away. so far I've got only one problem but I managed to solved it though, is you can't initialise an array with a variable as subscript like you always do in DevC++ (has to do with compiler version), anyway, solved it with dynamic allocation memory.

Xcode is the way. Full IDE, llvm compiler and debugger. I have compile various open source, no problemo.

Another alternative, is gcc. May required more hard work, have to deal with command line.

Xcode should be more than enough. As long as you don't use non-standard C++ library, eg system("pause"). If you do, just change your code to use a proper C++ standard library syntax.

Previously you can code Mac and iOS applications in Xcode using Apple's programming language called Objective-C. Now you have another alternative, called Swift. I've been using Swift since they released it. Quite a journey smile.gif

Spend some time to google it and you should get the answer. It is a programming language designed by Apple, primarily used to build iOS and OS X apps, it's relatively new and has become open source recently.
