KDevelop fails to recognize the c++ standard library on Windows. The result is that it complains about not being able to find the "iostream" header file and that "std" is an undeclared identifier.
Comment 1 iczero4 2017-03-01 07:05:07 UTC 
I am using the x86_64-6.3.0-posix-seh-rt_v5-rev1 version of mingw-w64 on Windows 10.
Comment 2 Kevin Funk 2017-03-01 07:44:28 UTC 
That's true, you need to point KDevelop to your STL install directory via Project Configuration -> Language Support -> Includes/Imports.

There's no easier way to do it at the moment.
Comment 3 iczero4 2017-03-02 01:13:35 UTC 
OK. Are there any plans to detect the compiler's STL include directory in the future?
Comment 4 Kevin Funk 2017-03-02 08:50:59 UTC 
Sure, there are, unfortunately we're lacking manpower in that regard. If someone wants to chime in and help us out we're happy to receive (code) contributions!
