RE: [Dev-C++] pipe to a file?

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

To my knowledge it is possible to implement fifo files in NT too. However,
you would then need the IFS SDK (I think that was the correct name), and
M$ charges a lot for this SDK. The SDK is targeted at implementation of
own file systems, file reparse points etc. In theory, you can do these
things with the normal DDK - Device Driver ToolKit - but you will miss
sample code and needed include files so you would then need to google
around for PD code.

The simplest solution is to implement a tail program that prenumerates
to changes. Then you don't have to constantly poll the size of the file to
detect new alarms.

[Dev-C++] Need Help on compiling wxWindows Application with DevCpp

[Frank W. <F.W...@wi...>]

Hello,

I just try to learn to use the wxWindows GUI toolkit and therefore I
use the tutorial at:
http://www.bzzt.net/~wxwindows/icpp_wx1.html

Before I installed the wxWindow DEVPACK and the  imagelib-1 DEVPACK.
After that I started creating a wxWindows project and tried to compile
the files generated form the templates.
A lot of compiler errors did occur.

After that I replaced these files by the files including the code of
this tutorial and tried to compile the basic window app.
Nearly the same compiler errors were the result.
In both cases I used the project options  that were set from the
wxwindow template.

For further information I attach the compile log to this mal the code I
tried to compile can be found at
http://www.bzzt.net/~wxwindows/icpp_wx1.html.

I hope someone can help me

Thanks in advance

Frank

RE: [Dev-C++] pipe to a file?

[Igor P. <igo...@po...>]

Hi,

Answer to your question depends on how the aplication
you mentioned sends alarms to the file. If it sends
them to standart output and they are redirected to the file
then you can write a program that reads standart input
and for each line of input it does what you want to do
(something like: <program_that_sends_alarms> | <your_alarm_filter> ).
But most probably the situation is as follows: the program
writes alarms directly to the file - then your easiest option
is to write a program that opens this file for reading and
periodically checks if something has changed in that file.
If you know unix then command "tail -f" may give you an
idea what i am talking about. It is the easiest solution and
you can write an ordinary program that does that.
As far as I know there is no such thing on windows as fifo
special files that you know from unix.
But if you want to do it the hard way you can search for
infromation on how to write a filesystem filter driver - then
you can intercept all the write operations to a file, but that
is totally different story.

Regards

Igor Pierscinski

This means that you should write:

#include <stack>
using namespace std;

to obtain the same effect of:

#include <stack.h>

that is deprecated, and in gcc 3.2 (DevC++5 with MinGW full binaries is
based on it) you get a warning if you use it.

Re: [Dev-C++] Uninstall Dev-C++ 4.9.8.0

How did you uninstall 5? If you used the uninstaller, try deleting the
installation directory before reinstalling 4, if you deleted that
directory try running the uninstaller and then deleting directory.
Of course, this would mean reinstall 5 to uninstall it and reinstall 4.

Warning: I'm not sure that this will work, but this is what I'd do.

IMHO you shouldn't reinstall 4, at least try installing last 5 beta, it's
very stable, even if some work has still to be done.

I have tried by I get 'compiler_errors.txt', as you can see in

[Dev-C++] offline C++ winhelp

[P.T. W. M. <pt...@ea...>]

Hi,

I'd like to find some downloadable C++ help that I can reference offline, 
preferably something I can integrate into the Dev-C++ help menu like a 
windows help file, so that I have a function reference available.

Not being familiar with what functions are available and their proto types 
is slowing me down.  All I have found so far is online docs, which are no 
help with a 56K modem that's offline.

Thanks, Patrick

[Dev-C++] pipe to a file?

[<ca...@kr...>]

hi Dev-cpp-users,

I have a difficult problem here and an idea how to solve it, which I
am not really sure of if it would be possible..

I have an application running that sends out alarmings. these alarms
are appended to a plain-text-file. one alarm == one line.

I want to write an application that puts itself where the file is, and
recieves the appendings, writes them to another file and several other
things.

I think this can maybe done by pipes, but I do not know how to do it.
an alarm should be treated like an event, when it occures something
has to be done about it (ring a bell :).

of course this application would need to run as a service.
I also need some hints or tutorials here, to write a service.
(I usually program for unix systems but that's really different..)

but first I need to get this append-problem solved.

thanks in advance!

How do I remove version 4.9.8.0 so I can get back to using version 4. I run

[Dev-C++] Using DEV-C++ and FOX GUI or wxWindows

[Maya <Esc...@ne...>]

I have been using Dev-cpp for small programs, but the more I use it the 
more I like it!
FOX GUI and wxWindows are the tow GUI tool kits I am considering to add 
GUI to my apps.
Now, I want the gui library to be linked to the program being worked on, 
but not all the programs being developed under Dev-cpp, is there a way 
in which Dev-cpp might allow me to do this.

Please note that Fox is installed in 'c:\fox' and wxWindows in 'c:\wx' 
in a Win98 machine.

Thank in advance

[Dev-C++] allegro problem

[neo <de...@ey...>]

I downloaded the allegro through WebUpdate Module,and installed it,but there
is a problem when i tried compiling the example program named exhello.c.the
code of the example program as below:

/************************************************************************/

#include "allegro.h"







int main()

{

   /* you should always do this at the start of Allegro programs */

   allegro_init();



   /* set up the keyboard handler */

   install_keyboard(); 



   /* set a graphics mode sized 320x200 */

   if (set_gfx_mode(GFX_SAFE, 320, 200, 0, 0) != 0) {

      set_gfx_mode(GFX_TEXT, 0, 0, 0, 0);

      allegro_message("Unable to set any graphic mode\n%s\n",
allegro_error);

      return 1;

   }



   /* set the color palette */

   set_palette(desktop_palette);



   /* clear the screen to white */

   clear_to_color(screen, makecol(255, 255, 255));



   /* you don't need to do this, but on some platforms (eg. Windows) things

    * will be drawn more quickly if you always acquire the screen before

    * trying to draw onto it.

    */

   acquire_screen();



   /* set transparent text */

   text_mode(-1);



   /* write some text to the screen with black letters */

   textout_centre(screen, font, "Hello, world!", SCREEN_W/2, SCREEN_H/2,
makecol(0,0,0));



   /* you must always release bitmaps before calling any input functions */

   release_screen();



   /* wait for a keypress */

   readkey();



   return 0;

}



END_OF_MAIN();

[Dev-C++] Uninstall Dev-C++ 4.9.8.0 so I can use Dev-C++ 4

[James C. <is...@ho...>]

How do I remove version 4.9.8.0 so I can get back to using version 4. I run 
Windows 98, and with Dev-C++ 4 things were great. I installed version 
4.9.8.0 and it did nor work. When I uninstalled version 4.9.8.0 and the 
re-instal version 4 that no longer works.

Please help, I can not compile any of my course programs.

Thanks

Re: [Dev-C++] Wxwindows

[<or...@vp...>]

Hi!

There are 2 things you can do:
1. Add -D__GNUWIN32__ to C and C++ compiler flags (good choice).
2. ALternatively you can look into include/wx/string.h and comment the 
#error line, then uncoment the code above it (very inefficient method).

Re: [Dev-C++] Wxwindows

[Oliver B. <the...@gm...>]

Hi :-)

perhaps you try to compile a static lib under windows.
you need:

- latest wxwindows stable release: www.wxwindows.org
- GNU Utils: http://www.braindonors.net/products/unxutils.asp
- Tutorial: http://upcase.malteser-gl.de/
- A forum: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=48211
       and: http://g.yi.org/Forum/list.php?f=13 (normally very
            slow and actually down but fantastic. Try http://g.yi.org

Hope this helps :-)

Regards Olli

RE: [Dev-C++] WAAAY off topic - does anyone speak Japanese?

[Daniel G. <sp...@ho...>]

Hey I just thought I'd let you know I have had two lessons in Japanese so 
far (started last week) and so far it is going well. The second lesson I 
found myself understanding a lot more.

arigato gozimasu,
