How To Use Dev C++ To Compile Rating: 3,8/5 4417 reviews
Compiler
Dev-C++ is a free IDE for Windows that uses either MinGW or TDM-GCC as underlying compiler.
Originally released by Bloodshed Software, but abandoned in 2006, it has recently been forked by Orwell, including a choice of more recent compilers. It can be downloaded from:
http://orwelldevcpp.blogspot.com

Installation

Run the downloaded executable file, and follow its instructions. The default options are fine.

Support for C++11

By default, support for the most recent version of C++ is not enabled. It shall be explicitly enabled by going to:
Tools -> Compiler Options
Here, select the 'Settings' tab, and within it, the 'Code Generation' tab. There, in 'Language standard (-std)' select 'ISO C++ 11':
Ok that. You are now ready to compile C++11!

Compiling console applications

To compile and run simple console applications such as those used as examples in these tutorials it is enough with opening the file with Dev-C++ and hit F11.
As an example, try:
File -> New -> Source File (or Ctrl+N)
There, write the following:
Then:
File -> Save As.. (or Ctrl+Alt+S)
And save it with some file name with a .cpp extension, such as example.cpp.
Now, hitting F11 should compile and run the program.
If you get an error on the type of x, the compiler does not understand the new meaning given to auto since C++11. Please, make sure you downloaded the latest version as linked above, and that you enabled the compiler options to compile C++11 as described above.

Dec 03, 2016 please friends like,share,and comment this video. If you have any query then comment me please. Please don't forget for subscribe. I am trying to write a program in C using Dev-C 5.6.1. I go to compile the program, and nothing happens. It compiles with zero errors, zero warnings, and an output of 0 bytes (it doesn't even create an exe file, nor any of the.o files). Apr 18, 2020  GCC 9.2 should already have at least C11 or C14 on by default. Download free string vst plugins. If it's still saying that C11 features are 'experimental', then it means your IDE isn't pointing at the correct location for your compiler; it's still trying to use your old compiler. Compile console programs using Dev-C If you happen to have a Linux or Mac environment with development features, you should be able to compile any of the examples directly from a terminal just by including C11 flags in the command for the compiler.

How To Compile C++ Code

After you have installed the compiler, you should go to Start:Programs:Dev-C and run Dev-C. You may be asked whether you wish Windows to associate.c and.cpp files with the compiler; you should check Yes. After the program opens, go to File-New Project.
