How to

Work with Dev-C++ Compile and Execute C/C++ Code

We usually find a LINUX environment in college labs when working with C or C++ Languages. But it is a good practice to execute the codes on our PC, through certain C/C++ Compilers like Dev-C++ and Turbo C. In this tutorial, I am using Dev-C++ (version- 5.0.0.4) on a 64-bit Windows machine. The Execution may vary upon different system.

Things you need to have:

1. a Windows PC (a typical configuration is sufficient).

2. Dev-C++ program (ver.-5.0.0.4 or later is recommended) installed on your PC. 3. a Sample Code of C/C++ program.

Steps for Execution:

1. Run the Dev-C++ program on your PC.

2. Open a New File and select Project.

New Project.

3. Now a new window will open, just select Console Application and choose your desired language C or C++ and click OK.

Console Application

C Project

4. Save your Project.dev File into the desired directory. You may rename it if you wish.

5. Now write your code in the editor console.

6. Insert “getch();” without quotes before the termination of C-code. (Insert it before the return function, if there is any.)

* For C++ programs insert “cin.get();” before the termination of code.

getch();

It is included in the code to avoid the flashing; your program can also run without inserting this into the code.

7. Save your Code into the same directory.

8. Now Compile and Run your Code,

or Just press the F9 key for the same.

You’ll find your code running.
