Note that Dev-C++ is just an IDE, the compiler it uses is GCC (MinGW version) and you can
find details about it at gcc.gnu.org and mingw.org . It supports both long double and STL.

Yes, the GNU license which Dev-C++ and GCC uses places no restrictions on produced output,
the STL has explicit permission to be freely used and the rest of the MinGW is public domain/MIT
licensed (very nonlimiting license). Be of course careful about the license of the libraries
you are going to use.
