    Introduction
    So far we have been using C language for simple console output only. Most of us are
    unaware that using C++, low level graphics program can also be made. This means we can
    incorporate shapes,colors and designer fonts in our program. This article deals with the steps
    to enable the DevC++ compiler to generate graphics .
    Configuring DevC++

     Step 1: Download the DevC++ version 5.11 from here.


     Step 2: Download the Graphics header files, and etc stuff needed from the given
    dropbox link.
     Step 3: Extract the contents of the rar file.
     Step 4: Go to the location where DevC++ is installed. For me its D drive. Go inside
    the MinGW64 folder. Copy the graphics.h and winbgim.h in the include folder and
    D:\Dev-Cpp\MinGW64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include folder.
     Step 5:Copy the libbgi.a file into lib folder and in D:\Dev-Cpp\MinGW64\x86_64-
    w64-mingw32\lib folder.
     Step 6: Copy the ConsoleAppGraphics.template, ConsoleApp_cpp_graph.txt files and
    paste them inside the template folder of the devc++ installer location.

    Now we are done with configuring of the DevC++ to support graphics programming. We
    shall write our very first graphics program now.
    Running the first graphics program

    1. Open DevC++. Click file ->New ->Project.


    2. Make sure you get the Console Graphics option. However, we are not going to click
    on it.
    3. Choose Empty Project option and Give a project name and make sure the selected
    language is C++.
    4. Copy the following code to the editor window.
    5. #include<graphics.h>
    6. #include <conio.h>
    7. int main()
    8. {
    9. int gd = DETECT, gm;
    10. initgraph(&gd,&gm, "C:\\tc\\bgi");
    11. circle(300,300,50);
    12. closegraph();
    13. getch();
    14. }
    15.
    16. Go to “Project” menu and choose “Project Options” (or just press ALT+P).
    17. Go to the “Parameters” tab In the “Linker” field, enter the following text:
    -lbgi
    -lgdi32
    -lcomdlg32
    -luuid
    -loleaut32
    -lole32

    18. Click OK and Compile and run the project and you’ll get this output:

    Program Explanation
     The initgraph function- ?Initializes the graphics system.
     In C Program execution starts with main() similarly Graphics Environment Starts with
    this function.
     initgraph() initializes the graphics system by loading a graphics driver from disk (or
    validating a registered driver) then putting the system into graphics mode
