C++ Compiler

Does anyone know of any suitable online C++ Compiler that similar to Microsoft Visual C++ compiler?
Came up a few months ago on isocpp

compiler or IDE?

Visual C++ is an IDE, and Windows specific. Right now I can only think of MonoDevelop, but there are other ones.

Isn't Visual C++ the compiler and Visual Studio the IDE?
for crying out loud
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_C%2B%2B

It has compiling has a function, but it is definitively an IDE ( integrated development environment )

Isn't Visual C++ the compiler and Visual Studio the IDE?

They are both IDEs, Visual C++ is the free version which only has C++, which is a part of Visual Studio (the paid version).

Some IDEs include compilers, some dont. VS and Eclipse do for exemple.

Visual Studio and Visual Studio Express are bundled with the (same) Visual C++ compiler, however Visual Studio and Visual Studio Express are not compilers, in the same way that Code::Blocks is not a compiler, even though it may be packaged with one depending on how you get it.

I think most people missed the ONLINE part of his question lol. And to that no I have yet to find one that is reliable.
https://compilr.com looks alright, however have not tested it.
