Maybe it is going to be updated/it is being updated because of C++11. Or maybe not. Who knows.
It is... but it's called Orwell Dev-C++ now.
Of course, some people are disappointed by the fact that it's the unofficial version, as if such a thing exists in the free software world -- especially when the original official authors stop maintaining it.
Wow, this thread is, now, pretty much a Dev C++ thread (=P). Well, thanks, guys! I never knew how outdated what I was using was. In fact, I'm not even using the latest version of Dev C++. I'm using Version 4.9.9.2 (a 1991 version).
Just tried it: how do you set up the linker? I am getting trouble with
#include <pthread.h>
.../trunk/Debug/../calculator.cpp:212: error: undefined reference to `pthread_create'
Tried playing with the project settings, but I couldn't figure it out.
[Edit:] It also gives me: warning: unused parameter. How can I turn off this warning flag?
To spare tition having to dig up the man page, pthread library is sometimes (but by no means always) linked with the switch -pthread on the command line call (not -lpthread; it's an odd one, for historical reasons).
