"Sally - A Simple C++ IDE" is a GPL multi-compiler C++ IDE for WindowsXP/2000. What makes it different from other similiar programs is a .Net style Visual GUI Designer for native C++ application that can be used with both Mingw and Visual C++ compilers (it's based on the emerging static library SmartWin++). No extern dlls (or the .Net framework) are required to run the executables and native windows applications can be created with virtually no C++ code. Moreover, it contains an embedded icon and image editor that is able to edit, convert and save images in the following formats: .ico,.bmp,.gif,.tiff,.png,.jpg. It's a very useful solution for users of the Mingw or Visual C++ compiler that want to develop native applications for the Windows operating system with a visual GUI designer for free! The program is written in the C# programming language, and requires the Framework .Net 1.1 to run. It might work on Win98, ME, NT but it's not been tested yet. NOTE: "Sally - A Simple C++ IDE" needs write access to the installation directory.
