Stand-alone Dev-C++

Post by tpannone »

I've been using Dev-C++ 1.13 for all of my NetBurner projects since beginning back in 2005. I recently upgraded my development PC to a Windows 7 unit, so I decided to upgrade my NNDK while I was at it. The first thing I noticed was that there was no stand-alone Dev-C++ program installed.

Is this no longer an option with NNDK 2.7.7, or did I just somehow not install it? I was really hoping to just open my existing projects in the new development system.

Hello,

DevCpp is incompatible with Windows 7 and beyond, so it has not been in the tools since 2008. Eclipse is more powerful, but also a bit more complicated. The best place to start is the NBEclipse Getting Started guide which shows how to create an empty project and import your source files.

Thanks TomNB. I've already run into my first error attempting to create a new project, but that will be the topic of another thread.
