Testing c++ code

[\/oid]

Hi all
I'm new to psp coding but i can program.When i was busy writing hello world:)
I started wondering...

Is there a way to test the c++ code on my pc
before uploading it to the psp?
I tried pspe but it sucks..Program crashes.
I have a ver 2.5 psp so i cannot use psplink....

uploading->Going into gta->eloader->then testing takes so long!!
Am i just to lazy?there must be a way:)

There are workarounds but no real solution.
I would just use SDL as the main API, work on a PC version then port to the PSP every now and then to ensure that it sure works on the PSP.
