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 hitF11
.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.Tutorial
You are now ready to begin the language tutorial: click here!.Dev Cpp 5.11

Apr 27, 2015 Dev-C is looking for translators, because the author doesn't master all thirty languages Dev-C is (partially) translated in. So, if you're willing to translate Dev-C into a language or update the existing translation, don't hesitate to open up YourLanguage.lng and start translating/updating, using English.lng as the reference language. Bloodshed Dev-C is a full-featured Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the C/C programming language. It uses Mingw port of GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) as it's compiler. Dev-C can also be used in combination with Cygwin or any other GCC based compiler.
