#470 Programs do not compile at all.

[Anonymous]

I reciently downloaded version 4.9.9.1 (Beta 5) after
using Beta 4 over a number of weeks. When I
completed the default install and selected a standard
project, I could not compile it. After hitting the compile
button the new Compiling window would open. The
progress bar moves to about half way. THere is a Ping
in the back ground and then the compiler stops. The
only way to close it down is the Ctrl + Alt + Del
method. The program completely stops.

I uninstalled Beta 4 and restarted the computer prior to
installing Beta 5.

I attempted to make a standard C++ program
(simple 'Hello World') which also doesn't complile. No
error message appears nor warning windows.

I have tried all combinations of the installing options.

In the Progress window the Status is on "Compiling ..."
The compiler is "Default Compiler"

The "Compile Log" window is:

Compiler: Default compiler
Building Makefile: "C:\Dev-Cpp\Makefile.win"
Executing make...
make.exe -f "C:\Dev-Cpp\Makefile.win" all
g++.exe -c Templates/main.cpp -o Templates/main.o -
I"C:/DEV-CPP/include/c++/3.3.1" -I"C:/DEV-

CPP/include/c++/3.3.1/backward" -I"C:/DEV-
CPP/lib/gcc-lib/mingw32/3.3.1/include" -I"C:/DEV-
CPP/include"

Total errors: 0
Warnings: 0

The log section of the progress window:
Compiler: Default compiler
Compiling main.cpp

I left the computer for approxamitly an hour and the
compiler stayed at the same point.

I am running:
Windows 98 SE2.
384M RAM.
4.89G free hard disk space.
PII 350

Beta 4 at this stage appears to work without errors.

I have attached a screen shot of the compiler at the
point in which it stops.

Please contact me at setraz@kooee.com.au if you
require any further information about the problem.

Thanks.

by "doesn't compile" you mean there's no exe being produced?
there should be exe in c:\dev-cpp because you saved your
project there.
