Question

I want to create a program that modifies another c++ source,compiles it and runs the exe.
I mean with something like gcc may be I can but on a windows os gcc may not be present.
Is it possible?

Answer 1

I think your options are fairly limited for windows:

1. Check for an install of a compiler (possibly limit this to a short list) and use that compiler
2. Bring along a compiler in your application’s install package
