[Dev-C++] missing STL include file in gcc 2.9.5

[Robert M D. <bob...@us...>]

I have downloaded and installed the most recent version of Dev-cpp (version
4.9.5.0), which appears to include gcc 2.95.3.  The problem I'm having is
that some include files appear to be missing from the C++ Standard Template
Library (e.g., <limits>).  In my installation of Dev-cpp, <limits.h>
appears in Dev-cpp/include but <limits> is absent from both
Dev-cpp/include/g++-3 and Dev-cpp/include/g++-3/std.

Is the absence of such include files an oversight?

No simply GCC 2.95.x is old. Download the latest MINGW distribution from

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/MinGW-2.0.0-2.exe?download


and install it above Dev-C++ installation folder (usually Dev-C++).



MINGW 2 official release is a highly recommended (by me) release (as
every recent official release).


It includes GCC 3.2 with the latest Win32 etc libraries.
