Dev-C++ / Discussion / Bloodshed Software Forum: Circular XX dependency dropped error

Mefirst - 2008-11-28

When I try to compile anything in 4.9.9.2 on XP I get the following:
Circular Tic_Tac_Toe <- Tic_Tac_Toe.o dependency dropped.
C:\Dev-Cpp\MyCstuff\l2c++lol\Makefile.win [Build Error] [L2C++LOL.exe] Error 1
This only occured after attempting to compile the following code: (New to C++)

include <stdio.h>

include <stdlib.h>

include <string.h>

int IsInUse[9]=0;
void blines(int n)
{
int i;
for(i=1;i<=n;i++)printf("\n");
}
void printscreen()
{
blines(25);
char s[9]="";
for(i=0;i<9;i++){
if(IsInUse[i]==1)printf("|X");
else if(IsInUse[i]==0)printf("| ");
else if(IsInUse[i]==2)printf("|O");
if(i==2)printf("|\n");
if(i==5)printf("|\n");
if(i==8)printf("|");
}
}
void grats()
{
printf("Congratulations, you won!\b");
GameOver=1;
}
void aww()
{
printf("Aww, you lost.\n");
GameOver=1;
}
void cpuai()
{
int a;
a=rand()%9+1;
while(IsInUse[a]!=0)a=rand()%9+1;
IsInUse[a]=1;
}
int main(int argc,char argv){int GameOver=0,turn=rand()%1+1,plAns;while(GameOver==0){
printf("Welcome to Tic-Tac-Toe C++ Version!\n");
if(turn==1){
printf("Enter the square you want.\n");
scanf("%d",&plAns);
if(plAns>8)plAns=8;
if(IsInUse[plAns]!=0)IsInUse[plAns]=2;
}
else if(turn==2)cpuai();
if(IsInUse[0]==2){if(IsInUse[1]==2){if(IsInUse[2]==2){grats();}}
else if(IsInUse[3]==2){if(IsInUse[6]==2){grats();}}

if(IsInUse[6]==2){if(IsInUse[7]==2){if(IsInUse[8]==2){grats();}}}

Any help?

  The original message was a make message not a compiler error. You need to post the make file rather than the code.
  
  Do not create projects in the Dev-C++ installation folder or sub-folders within it (i.e. C:\Dev-Cpp\MyCstuff). It can cause strange behaviour in Dev-C++.

  I changed it to a stand-alone source and it threw a few errors which I fixed, the code now reads:
  
  include <stdio.h>
  
  include <stdlib.h>
  
  include <string.h>
  
  int IsInUse[8]={0},GameOver=0;
  void blines(int n)// Function taken from Dev-C++ help file
  {
  int i;
  for(i=1;i<=n;i++)printf("\n");
  }
  void printscreen()
  {
  int i;
  blines(25);
  char s[9]="";
  for(i=0;i<9;i++){
  if(IsInUse[i]==1)printf("|X");
  else if(IsInUse[i]==0)printf("| ");
  else if(IsInUse[i]==2)printf("|O");
  if(i==2)printf("|\n");
  if(i==5)printf("|\n");
  if(i==8)printf("|");
  }
  }
  void grats()
  {
  printf("Congratulations, you won!\b");
  GameOver=1;
  }
  void aww()
  {
  printf("Aww, you lost.\n");
  GameOver=1;
  }
  void cpuai()
  {
  int a;
  a=rand()%9+1;
  while(IsInUse[a]!=0)a=rand()%9+1;
  IsInUse[a]=1;
  }
  int main(int argc,char argv){int GameOver=0,turn=rand()%1+1,plAns;while(GameOver==0){
  printf("Welcome to Tic-Tac-Toe C++ Version!\n");
  if(turn==1){
  printf("Enter the square you want.\n");
  scanf("%d",&plAns);
  if(plAns>8)plAns=8;
  if(IsInUse[plAns]!=0)IsInUse[plAns]=2;
  }
  else if(turn==2)cpuai();
  if(IsInUse[0]==2){if(IsInUse[1]==2){if(IsInUse[2]==2){grats();}}
  else if(IsInUse[3]==2){if(IsInUse[6]==2){grats();}}
  else if(IsInUse[4]==2){if(IsInUse[8]==2){grats();}}}
  if(IsInUse[1]==2){if(IsInUse[4]==2){if(IsInUse[7]==2){grats();}}}
  if(IsInUse[2]==2){if(IsInUse[5]==2){if(IsInUse[8]==2){grats();}}

  printscreen();}

  I now get this error: cannot find ld' Compile Log: Compiler: Default compiler Executing g++.exe... g++.exe "C:\Dev-Cpp\MyCstuff\l2c++lol\Untitled1.cpp" -o "C:\Dev-Cpp\MyCstuff\l2c++lol\Untitled1.exe" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.2\include" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\backward" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\mingw32" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include" -L"C:\Dev-Cpp\lib" collect2: cannot findld'
