I just switched to Linux Mint and am installing code::blocks
What is a good c++ compiler for linux?

[g4143]

If your using Linux then the choice is the GNU GCC compiler, I would also investigate NetBeans with the C/C++ plugin.

I use Linux with NetBeans + C/C++ plugins and find it hands down better than Code::Blocks.

Alright! Thanks again for your help.

In my honest opinion clang > g++. 😁

Same here, g++ all the way with CDT in Eclipse.

GCC does the trick for me

Whenever you want to compile your source file, just type:
gcc myprojectname.cpp myfilename

and then you should have a nice executable sitting where the file was
to execute that in terminal, type:
./myfilename

bam!

linux should come with pre-installed gcc/g++.

type gcc or
which gcc to find out.

For editor, you may choose netbeans, eclipse, code blocks etc
