When i press compile and run command, the Black screen(cmd promt) doesn't
appear at all. I searched everywhere on the net to get a solution and finally
ended up here.
I am using the latest Dev-c++ 4.9.9.2 version on a Windows 7 64bit system.
I am a beginner to programing. Any simple help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Saman.
"Compile & Run" is a bit optimistic. I suggest that you use "Compile" and then
if that is successful "Run". If it is not successful post the compile log as
requested in the "PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING A QUESTION"
Are you sure that the program is not in fact running to termination. When a
program terminates the OS closes its Window - if your program does very little
and does not wait on any user input, it is possible that you will not see the
window That too is dealt with in the "Read First" thread.
There were issues running Dev-C++ on Vista, I imagine that these persist on
Windows 7, and Win64 is anyone's guess. I find it remarkable that you;d choose
to be running a machine with Win7/64 and yet be using a 5 year old free WIn32
compiler and IDE. I suggest that if you want free development tools for
Windows you use VC++ 2008 Express. It is still only 32bit (in the free
version), but that should not be a problem in most cases.
