[Dev-C++] Code Completion Cache for All Users

Greetings,

We're using Dev-C++ here at our university for our intro programming 
class.  We would like to set the program up to store the code completion 
cache in a central location on a lab computer, rather than each 
individual user having to generate the code completion cache the first 
time they use Dev-C++, and store it in their user profile, adding an 
extra >10MB per user to our file server.

I've tried doing this by telling Dev-C++ to use an alternative location 
for the cache (first I used "C:\Dev-Cpp", then tried "C:\Documents and 
Settings\All Users\Application Data\Dev-Cpp").  When I do this, however, 
the program generates an essentially empty cache.  If I then run the 
program, go to options, and explicitly add the include files to the 
cache, it goes ahead and creates the cache in the user directory instead 
of putting it where I told it to put the cache when I first ran the program.

Is it possible to generate the cache once and have all users use that 
cache rather than individually storing the cache in each person's user 
space?

If this is not currently possible, can someone point me to which source 
code files I might have to modify to implement this feature?

Thanks,
