    dasknix - 2009-07-20

    Hello from Russia! =D

    I'm seriaous fun of DevC++ & wanna know - how much time native win32-based DevCPP binaries will be compiled by authors? I mean NOT wx-native, but exactly win32 executable platform?.. It's wery important 4 me. Thx!

    PS also i'm interested in next theme: how i could use runtime debug DLL library???..
    'cause i dont'know how in include/link projects between itself to DevCPP-IDE could catch executable workspace?..

    thx at all 4 DevC++ Greates Integrated Developent Environment!!! =D I'm very glad that project alive & growing up!

      That is not the real problem. I actually have no idea what you are asking!

      > I'm very glad that project alive & growing up!
      It is neither alive or growing. The project is not actively developed, and if teh message rate on this forum is anything to go by, the number of users is falling. That is not really surprising; its moment has passed - superseded by better solutions.

    Well you could participate yourself - it is after all open source; but amongst
    the reasons that it is no longer actively developed are:

    1. It is written in Delphi, and its intersted users are by definition C/C++ developers, and Delphi is not free.
    2. There are a number of better alternatives, and catching-up would be a huge task.

    There is a derivative project - - that has been active in at least in this
    year, and adds significant functionality (such as visual GUI development, and
    support for Microsoft compilers/debugger).

    Personally however, I would suggest that in the face of the free VC++ 2008
    Express Edition form Microsoft, with its far superior IDE and debugger, on-
    going development of vanilla Dev-C++ is a waste of effort.
