Prepare the contract compilation environment

Before you write and compile C++ contracts, you must set up a compilation environment. The Ant Blockchain contract platform lets you compile contracts in one of the following ways:

• Use mychain.mycdt, the C++ contract compilation tool provided by the Ant Blockchain platform. For more information, see mychain.mycdt C++ contract compilation tool.

• You can compile C++ contracts online with Cloud IDE. For more information, see Cloud IDE usage instructions.
