Need help.

I recently switched compilers to a more up to date one (Orwell Dev-C++), and the following code no longer works, can you please help give me the code that works like the following

code
cin.ignore(numeric_limits<streamsize>::max(), '\n')
assuming your using the namespace

Why does not the code work? Could you be more precise?
