Web site

Version

Download Page : http://sourceforge.net/projects/dev-cpp/files/Binaries/Dev-

C%2B%2B%204.9.9.2/devcpp-4.9.9.2_nomingw_setup.exe/download

Open the file devcpp-4.9.9.2_nomingw_setup.exe

Click OK.

Click I Agree.

Click Next.

Do not change the destination folder. It is better to be C:\Dev-Cpp. Click Install.

Click Finish and Run Dev-C++.

On the first run Dev-C++, a notice window will appear. Read and click OK.

Select language(English is preferred) and click Next.

Click Next.

Click Next.

Click OK.

This is the Dev-C++ main window look.

Click File, then New and Project.

On the New Project screen choose Console Application and C Project. Name the first project as
Welcome.

Create a new folder named as work under the Dev-Cpp folder. From now on, save all projects under
this folder.

For the first project, create a new folder named as project1 and save Welcome.dev under this
folder.

This is the default screen of a new project. On the left column you can see Welcome and main.c
which are the first project that we will run.
Just click and copy the code below.
/* Fig. 2.1: fig02_01.c
A first program in C */
#include <stdio.h>
/* function main begins program execution */
int main( void )
{
printf( "Welcome to C!\n" );
getch();
return 0; /* indicate that program ended successfully */
} /* end function main */

Paste the code on main.c and save under the project1 folder.

Then, on the toolbar click Compile&Run or just hit F9 on your keyboard.

A new black window which welcomes you will appear that means you installed Dev-C++ successfully.
