Re: [Dev-C++] Which version of GDB?

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

Since I have never managed to debug an application in the IDE,
I personally start the Insight debugger standalone and debug that way.

Yes, I know. I tried what was recommended there - install gdb 5.2.1 - but
that didn't help. That's why I wanted to check if there's a fail safe way to
do it (other than reinstalling :)

[Dev-C++] How to execute external programs ?

[Alain P. <ala...@ge...>]

Hi all,

I need ,under Windows, to execute an external program. To be more precise, I need to start a file as Widows do it when I doubli-click on it. The final goal is to start a remote connection.

I did a symbolic link on c : "c:\myconnection.lnk". I first tried standard linux functions (execl, etc.) on the file, but nothing happened when I do :
** execl("c:\myconnection.lnk", "");

I think this is because I didn't start an exe.
Then, I tried to use windows specific functions :

** WinExec("c:\MozillaFirebird.exe", SW_SHOWNORMAL);

But nothing happened. I think the problem is the same : the file is not executable.

Does someone have an Idea how I could do that ?

Thank you very much for any proposition.

Alain Paschoud.

Thanks for your info.

Re: [Dev-C++] CreateProcess balks during compile operation

[Alvin T. <al...@th...>]

hmm...that may be your problem. the make commands shouldn't need any 
sh.exe; everything you need should be in the dev-cp\bin directory. try 
removing it from your path.

Alvin: Thanks for the suggestion.  I have added the gcc binary and lib 
directory paths to the tools->compiler options->directories->binaries 
list as well as the gcc library path to the tools->compiler 
options->directories->libraries list.  Didn't get rid of the problem

One thing about all this I don't understand is why dev-c++ doesn't have 
its own sh.exe for dispatching make commands.  Do you know the reason 
for this?  If I didn't have \DJGPP\bin in my PATH, what would it do?

[Dev-C++] Which version of GDB?

[Mats L. <mat...@to...>]

I got DevCpp v 4.9.8.7 and I haven't been able to debug the programs I'm
working with. I turned on to compile with debug information of course.

When I failed to debug with DevCpp I tried Insight, but that didn't help. It
just stalles with the hourglass and all menus dimmed. Then I tried with a
more recent version of gdb (5.2.1) but that didn't help either.

Anyone got a failsafe way to get it to work?

[Dev-C++] Mingw g++.exe: Not enough memory (ENOMEM)

Hi,

I'm getting ENOMEM failure from g++.exe when I try to build my project. 
  Any suggestions?  I don't think it's a lack of physical memory: my PC

262 MB.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Umm, not sure what mSys is.

What I did was to download and install the full dev-c++ IDE, which 
includes a mingw distribution of g++ and friends.  So it should be 
completely generic.

The only guess I can make is that there's some settings state left over 
from when I was using the subset version of dev-c++, which has the class 
browser but no compilation platform.  ( I first tried to use the subset 
dev-c++ with the DJGPP distribution of g++ etc., which the app I am 
working on has as its official compilaton platform.  I never got it to 
work either: it was missing a couple of utilities that dev-c++ needs, 
windres and dllwrap. )

I think there was some email a week or two back about finding and nuking 
one's dev-c++ settings.  I may go and have a look for it.

Re: [Dev-C++] Debugger not working? 4.9.8.7 PLUS console under WinAPI... is it possible?

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

If all you want is to emit trace output from your program, you can use the
OutputDebugString() function in Windows.

This will send the debug text either to a debugger, or to a dedicated
debug log program, such as DebugView which may be downloaded from
www.sysinternals.com

By the way - a lot of commercial programs still have a number of debug
output that may be viewed by the DebugView program.

Thank you so much!!!

Now it seems to work, well, still behaves strangely, but at least the
debugger starts and breakpoints work (I've noticed that the "next step"
button go backwards sometimes [?]).

I was sick to use "MessageBox()" to print blocking output messages... a real
shame :).

A different question... is there a way to open a console window when using
the WinAPI? Of course simple "printf"s won't work.

Windows has plenty of simple and powerful functions, but too often it lets
you think it has been written for kids :))) - and by kids maybe...

Re: [Dev-C++] Debugger not working? 4.9.8.7

[Javier <jm...@ug...>]

As far as I remember that happened to me too. I recall I have read 
something about a bug in the gdb version shipped with Dev-Cpp 4.9.8.0. 
The solution was to replace the original gdb with a new version (5.2.1). 
You can download and install the full gdb package from www.mingw.org and 
then copy the gdb.exe to the Dev-Cpp\bin directory or download a zipped 
version of the gdb.exe (only this file is needed) from 
http://www-etsi2.ugr.es/depar/ccia/mp1/software.html and uncompress it 
in Dev-Cpp\bin. You can also find there a small Dev-Cpp instalation 
manual although it is in spanish only (sorry).

Just backup your gdb.exe before replacing it just in case.

Good luck.

Javier

Re: [Dev-C++] CreateProcess balks during compile operation

[Alvin T. <al...@th...>]

if you installed MinGW or mSys yourself, you're probably pointing to the 
wrong 'make.exe' program. don't use the one in the MinGW dir 
('make-mingw.exe' or something like that). try the one in the mSys 
directory.

Re: [Dev-C++] CreateProcess balks during compile operation

[Doug M. <dou...@al...>]

I guess I posted the problem below to the wrong list. I see mostly 
general C++/Windows sw devel questions happening here.  Can somehone 
suggest a place to post an under the hood dev-C++ problem?

Thanks,
Doug

I'm writing a command line application using DEV-C++ and I want to pass to command line a sentence of type " myapp *.* " to make it work on all files in a directory. How can I do it? How can I pass a directory name to my application and make it work on current directory and all subdirectory?

Re: [Dev-C++] *.*

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

Wildcard expansion is true for unix, but normally not for Windows. A
Windows program receives the actual wildcard characters and will then have
to perform the expansion itself.
