Portable Visual Studio or Like it..

DreadStarX · Oct 1, 2013

Heya Guys,

I'm doing my best to increase my knowledge of computers to make myself more valuable to my employer, which I'm hoping to be Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, FBI/CIA, or something of that sort.

But on my trek of trying to bypass all of the policies and get a portable version of a coding program that can compile. I can't install anything that requires UAC Access. So I'm looking for a portable version that'll fit on a 2GB or a 4GB Thumb Drive.

Notepad++ doesn't work for me due to it having no compilation features.

Plus, I suck with HTML coding xD

Depends on what language you're looking for...

For C++, CodeBlocks is well liked, although it doesn't work on my schools systems. Code::Blocks

For Visual Basic.NET and C#.NET, I have this on my memory stick and it works well: SharpDevelop Portable 4.3.3 Development Test 1 | PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB, portable and cloud drives

Thanks Tekno.

My end time goal is to eventually work for CCP Games, Developers of EVE Online & Dust 514. So, I'm trying to cram my brain full of useful information. I have a C++ Book, and a Python book, but I can't make heads or tails out of either book. I guess its my fault, I used to do script kiddy work for an old game. I just injected scripts, someone else debugged. Always start too high.

Maybe you can teach me some time :)

Update:

Neither worked for me. CodeBlocks requires Administrator Access. So its out of the question until I can get my hands on a laptop or something similar.

Never had any luck with CodeBlocks myself at school.

What issue are you having with SharpDevelop?

Any more detail you can provide with the issues you're having?

I have a feeling it's because the download is packaged as a PortableApps installer, which is an installer and probably blocked by your schools system. All the installer does is copy the files to a memory stick of your choice.

I have a feeling if you managed to copy the files to a folder another way without using the installer, sharpDevelop would run

I believe you are right in this manner.
