How to make a .com file in C/C++

Nikkori

Can you teach me how to make a .com or .exe from .c or .cpp?
All I can see for example are only .obj and .cpp files with no .com or .exe?
I would like to view the output using a .com or .exe and I could'n't--I can only view my output when I run the program.
Besides, I want to e-mail my friends some C/C++ games I've made, and it will be funny if I send them .cpp files. I want them to just click the .com or .exe of my games Confused

As far as I know .com is a 'companion file' which runs when the exe of the same name is run.

It's commonly used in companion viruses.

So it is commonly .EXE what the C++ make?

Thank you for your information about the difference between the .COM and .EXE... I'll try it, maybe I'm just programming games without further knowledge about making a finshed-product-- .EXE.. Thanks!

.cpp or .c files are source code.

What you want to do is compile them using a c/c++ compiler.

I use this one.

What you'll do is open up the .cpp file, and then goto Execute - Compile.

It'll create a .exe in the same folder as your .cpp file.

That answer your question?
