Jan 06, 2006 Dev-cpp - compiler options I just recently switched to Dev-Cpp 4.9.9.2 and I'm wondering how I can force the compiler to conform to ANSI C and such things. As it is now, it lets me get away with quite a lot of strange things. Options, that you specify when you invoke the compiler, override installation defaults and compiler options that are specified through a #pragma options directive. The compiler option defaults that are supplied by IBM can be changed to other selected defaults when z/OS® XL C/C is installed. For further information, see Customizing default. Compiler Options.; 2 minutes to read; In this article. Cl.exe is a tool that controls the Microsoft C (MSVC) C and C compilers and linker. Cl.exe can be run only on operating systems that support Microsoft Visual Studio for Windows.

hello altogether,
my name is Wolfram Pagels, Berlin, Germany
my status is :retired but enthusiastic c++-fan;
I use Dev-C++ since 3 month ago; in the 70th I programmed in Fortran;
after a long break I enjoy to learn c++11;
e.g.: the day before yesterday I got the following message from Dev-C++:
My second question to you: * h o w to enable (these) options at my installed and running actual mingw compiler as part of Dev-C++ IDE ?
Thank you in advance for your time,
Compile In Dev C++
yours sincerely

Dev C++ Compiler Options
mike_2000_172,669
Well, the answer to your problem (but not to your question) is to change your IDE. Dev-C++ is far too old to support C++11. The MinGW GCC version that ships with Dev-C++ is version 3.4.2, which is really old. Decent support for C++11 starts roughly from 4.6.0, but since it is still experimental, the newer the better. Currently, you can get 4.7.1 version through '>TDM-GCC ports. I recommend switching to '>CodeBlocks, which you can download as an installer that includes TDM-GCC 4.7.1. That should allow you to have decent C++11 support.

As for setting compiler options, you typically have to navigate the 'Build Configuration' or 'Project Properties' or similar panels. Usually, you will find a place to put 'custom compiler options' where you can place the exact command-line compiler option (like -std=c++11), that is, if you can't find a checkbox for the particular option you need.
