Hello.
I'm using Windows XP. Please tell me which programming environments are best for the blind on Windows XP for C++.
I like MS VS 2010, but I use NVDA, in the latest versions of NVDA, the code window is not available.
Thanks to all.

You can use eclipse or DevC++ under Windows XP.

The problem is that these environments use the GNU C Compiler (GCC).

Cheers,

You can also compile apps for windows XP in visual studio 2017 by selecting 'Windows XP Support' on the components page of the VS 2017 installer.

Visual studio 2017 doesn't support Windows XP.

I think that the last version supporting Windows XP is visual studio 2012 or 2013.

The latest version that supports Windows XP, Visual Studio 2010.
I like Dev-C++, but it's not completely available. A list of project files and folders is not available, etc.

@francipvb, I never said it supported running on Windows XP. Hardly anything supports that these days. I said that you can still compile things for it (although why you ever would is beyond me).
