I suggest try using Embarcadero's C++ builder.  There is a community 
edition that users can download free of charge.

<https://www.embarcadero.com/products/cbuilder/starter>

You could also create a free account on github and the community members 
here or elsewhere can have a look at the code and suggest changes.  You 
keep the control on the code that goes in the final product but 
community members can make suggestions.

<https://github.com/features>

Other newsgroups are:

comp.lang.c++

You could cross-post your posts to that other group like I have done here.
