[Dev-C++] Is this the correct forum to ask such a question ?

My Dev C++ is not recognising "//" comments.
I think it is broken.

Are you talking about syntax highlighting in the editor, or errors from
the compiler when building the application? Is it a C or C++ source file?
Have you specified any specific flags to the compiler, to specify language
standard or similar?

It could be that he's using C.  I don't remember, but I thought that
'//' was a C++ feature, and if he's using C, it might not work.

Is that the only error?  Many times one error will create others (many
of which make you almost certain that the makers of the compiler were
on drugs) that have almost no relation to the actual problem.
