Embarcadero Dev-C

Embarcadero Dev-C++ is a free, lightweight, and streamlined C/C++ integrated development environment (IDE) for Windows. It is a modernized successor and upgrade to the classic Bloodshed Dev-C++ and Orwell Dev-C++, sponsored and maintained by the renowned software development company Embarcadero. Its core features include: 1. Built-in compiler: It uses a MinGW-ported version of GCC (GNU Compiler Collection, such as TDM-GCC 9.2.0) as the compiler by default, supporting both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. It can also be used with other GCC-based compilers such as Cygwin. 2. Low memory footprint and native experience: As a native Windows application (built using Embarcadero Delphi), it does not use the Electron framework, resulting in extremely low memory usage and smooth operation. 3. Practical Development Features: Provides basic yet practical IDE features such as syntax highlighting, code completion, a class browser, integrated debugger (GDB), GPROF performance analysis, project management, and AStyle code formatting. 4. Modern Adaptation: Compared to the long-discontinued older version of Dev-C++, it fixes numerous historical bugs, adds support for high DPI, dark mode, and updates the compiler to support newer C++ standards (such as C++17 and parts of C++20).
