    Another point is that the developers of Dev-C++ and the developers =
MinGW cannot be responsible when the compiler doesn't work in exactly =
the way you expect. =20

  I did not understand what you mean  by that.

I have noticed that people in the past have posted what they believe to =
be issues with the compiler here in the expectation that the Dev-C++ =
community can fix compiler bugs. I decided that some people don't quite =
understand the relationship between IDE and compiler. What I was trying =
to say in a way was that if the problem is one of ANSI compliance in the =
compiler then the people responsible for that end of the system are the =
developers of GCC. Admittedly there can be occasions where the source of =
a problem is Dev-C++ or MinGW.

When I find a problem I try to narrow it down as much as possible, or =
even locate the source of it, before talking to anyone about it.
