compiler probs--devc++:iostream

[Nobody/Anonymous]

I just happily downloaded a gnu devc++ IDE from Bloodshed software.
I finally got it to compile but it wouldn't recognize this command: #include
<iostream> or <iostream.h> "no such file or directory" . It would,
however,
compile with #include <stdio.h>.

I started a project and the bullet was in C++ program instead of a C
program, and the file was named *.cpp

It doesnt seem to go down to the next subdirectory down from include files
to c++

I dont know what to do.

If you have a problem. Start your own thread.
This is probably not the palce for it.
However iostream.h is deprecated and is installed
in "C:/DEV-CPP/include/c++/backward",
which is not listed in your include paths.
However "C:/DEV-CPP/include" is unnecessarily listed twice.
If you still have a problem don't relpy on this thread; start your own.

I added : C:\DEV-CPP\inlcude\c++\backward and got a huge amount of compile error
messages, here is a small sample.

Here's one clue:
"bits/c++config.h: No such file or directory"

In my installation (Dev-C++ 4.9.9.0 "full package"), here's where c++config.h is:

C:\Dev-Cpp499x\include\c++\3.3.1\mingw32\bits

What version of Dev-C++ are you using? Check where your files are and how your directories are set up, and, if you think it might help, consider updating.

By the way, did you have a previous installation? You might take a look at The Forum FAQ for info regarding uninstalling and reinstalling (applies to updating).
