How to change mode from c++98 mode in Dev-C++ to a mode that supports C++0x (range based for)?


I am just learning how to write range based for loops, but the only problem is that my compiler, Orwell Dev-C++ doesn't seem to support it in its default mode (which is c++98). How can I change this mode to another one that supports this feature (and other features of C++0x). Thanks. Also:

This was the error message: [Error] range-based-for loops are not allowed in C++98 mode

I run Windows 8

The version I have of Dev C++ is 5.3.0.3

And the compiler is TDM-GCC 4.6.1 64 bit.


Solution

  • Go to Tools -> Compiler Options -> "Compiler" tab

    Check the checkbox labeled, "Add the following commands when calling the compiler" And add in the text entry box, "-std=c++11" or if that doesn't work "-std=C++0x"

    Should be something like that anyway, I haven't had Dev C++ installed for many years, so I had to look at some screenshots on Google to remember.
