Re: [Dev-C++] re+ Public Domain C++ IDE

[* W. <wi...@fu...>]

Hi all ::

Trivial defence ... I recall several months !!  Dealing with this on the =
Microsoft compiler at transition time circa. 1997 and '98.

I much prefer the "\backward" folder stuff that gcc(?) or is it a DEV =
CPP factor -- Use.

I had several project managers dumping on me for "risking' everything -- =
Mind you we delivered on time, etc, etc.  (Because we allowed for the =
'pain').

Enjoy someone's forward thinking of the compiler set-up.  It will save =
you money !

Good show folks.

Happy 2004 .... Will.

  The C++ you're using is pre-standard C++. In 1998 a C++ standard was
  finalized and became official, which altered a few things you might be =
used
  to. For instance, namespaces have been added, and are now enforced by =
most
  compilers. The standard C++ library functions, types and objects are =
now
  stored inside a namespace called "std". "void main" has never been =
standard
  C or C++, and thus has always been wrong. The newer versions of GCC =
simply
  don't accept it anymore. Furthermore, the standard C++ library header =
files
  are now extensionless, to avoid confusion with standard C library =
header
  files.
  So, applying all these changes, here is what your code should look =
like now:

  #include <iostream>
  using namespace std;

  int main()
  {
      cout << "Hello Dolly\n";
      return 0;
  }

  Hope this helped.

  Regards,


  Paul

  I have downloaded your C++ IDE 1991 and looks great . However after
  having taught C++ for the past 6 years . All the simple code I input =
to
  your IDE seems to fail with notes such as antiquated etc etc. Code is =
as
  follows you cannot get more  simple than this.
                                  =20

                                                       =
#include<iostream.h>

                           void main()

                    {
                                              cout<<"Hello Dolly\n";
                                          =20
                                       // you dont need a return at this
  level of code, also
                                      // Main is not expecting anything
  back  !
                   }
   Would apreciate any help advice or perhaps you could steer me to a
  tutorial which would elaborat or give examples that work with your
  compiler !!. Regards
