Hello,
Return 0; has nothing to do with the memory. It's just the exit code that
gets returned to the calling process. The memory management is delt with by
the OS its self, and the library.
If you want to use borland that works too, but as far as I remember, borland
is kind of outdated.

Hi,
The return (0) line indicates that you have finished executing the code
and
is forfitting the memory so that other programs can use it. Personally, I
put that line at the end of my programs.As for command-line tools, I
recommend Borland.
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: c++ confusion
Hi all,
I may have to learn a lot of c++ or, more specifically, visual c++
sometime
soon. I am confused on some things from my limited c++ experience in the
past:
1. Some compilers want the "return(0) and a few other lines at the end of
your main function, while some do not. I have noticed this and similar
small
differences. What is this all about, and what decides what specific code
needs to be included?
2. What is visual c++ to regular c++ and is it very different? Can I use
my
favorite c++ program to compile vc++ or does this language require its own
compiler?
3. Is there a simple command-line c++ or vc++ compiler I can get so I can
use EdSharp instead of a dedicated IDE?
Thanks for any help!
Have a great day,
Alex
