[Dev-C++] Help using istream& getline (istream& is, string& str, char delim = '\n');

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

Question: Help using ' istream& getline (istream& is, string& str, char 
delim = '\n'); '

    


First of all, I apologize I am addressing this question to the wrong 
mail_list/news_group. If so, please just disregard this message.
Here is my problem:
The below overloaded extractor is not the only one in my class. There is 
an overloaded extractor for all the primitive data types as  well as for 
std::string objects.
All of inserters and extractors handling primitive data types are 
identical, the only difference is that each handles different data 
types. However, the overloaded operator handling std::string objects is 
giving me some strange behavior.
Staring with the data in the file stream and continuing with a sip of 
the source code, let me show you what it is that I am talking about.

-- data in the file stream is: --
Where are the weapons of mass destruction? Sir.^
-- snip --
virtual std::string& operator>>(std::string& data)
throw(jme::CursorPosition, jme::StreamEx, std::bad_alloc){
   /** Set the position of the file get pointer,  if there are any 
errors  throw an exception explaining what when wrong **/
   try{setNextRead();}
   catch(jme::CursorPositionEx& x){throw;  }
   catch(jme::StreamEx& x) {throw; }

   /** Make sure that there is data to be read in the file**/
   if(file_is_empty()){  throw io_baseEx(FE_EMPTY,FILE,METHOD,LINE);}

   /**  set the file's cursor position the the value returned by 
getNextRead(), which will never be < zero **/
   f.seekg( getNextRead());

   /** Get the a string from of character from the file stream until "^" 
is found **/
   std::getline(f,data,'^')
//Testing
std::cout << "Data is: " << data << std::endl; <<== Displays the right 
string value
std::cout << "Current Cursor Pos " << f.tellg() << std::endl;  //<== 
Returns -1; an error??
std::cin.get();
//End testing
   try{setNextRead();}
   catch(jme::CursorPosition& x){ throw;  }
   catch(jme::StreamEx& x){throw;  } <== because ftellg is -1 this 
exception is thrown
    f.sync();
    return data;
}
Again, thanks folks for the help!

[Dev-C++] About headers like socket.h

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

Hi all,

I'm new to dev-cpp, and I need to accept a TCP connection. As I did under
Linux, I will use the bind and accepts functions. But to do that, I need to
include the <sys/socket.h> header file. I did it (see below), but there is
no socket.h file in the include directory of dev-cpp (result : accept_con.c
sys\socket.h: No such file or directory). Here are my questions :

Is there every required headers with Dev-cpp to do network programming ?
Is there every necessary libraries ?
Do I have to download something more to use sockets ?

Best regards, and thank you for any help.

Alain Paschoud

**** Code example below ****

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>

#define MYPORT 3490

int accept_con()
{
   int sockfd;
   struct sockaddr_in my_addr;

        sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); // do some error checking!

        my_addr.sin_family = AF_INET;         // host byte order
        my_addr.sin_port = htons(MYPORT);     // short, network byte order
        my_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = htons(INADDR_ANY);
        memset(&(my_addr.sin_zero), '\0', 8); // zero the rest of the struct

        // don't forget your error checking for bind():
        bind(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&my_addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr));

/* Accept connection */
        accept(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *) &my_addr, sizeof(struct
sockaddr));
}

RE: [Dev-C++] Crtl-F9 does not recompile updated files

[Geoff B. <Geo...@Vc...>]

If you change anything in a header file then the recompile will not detect
any changes, so you have to do a build all.  But changing any of the .cpp
files should be detected and a recompile should occour.

When I try to re-compile using Crtl-F9, the Dlgbox pops up as if it is
compiling the program, but when I run the program the modifications I have
just made to the code don't show! If I use Ctrl-F11 and then run program,
the modifications then take place. 
It seems that that Crtl-F9 is not compiling the newly updated files, so I
have to "Built all".

Can anyone help?

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

[P.D. v. Z. <pa...@my...>]

Hi,

I don't speak Japanese that well, but I'm trying to learn it myself too.
It's pretty easy in fact. Intonation doesn't have much to do with what the
words mean (that's in Chinese :P), it's more which sounds you use. You use
"ka" at the end of a sentence to make it a question, for example. You could
try having a look at the Pimsleur "Japanese 1" tapes/CDs/mp3s, they're a
great help to me as well. It does focus on speaking instead of writing, but
that should be ok (considering the extreme amount of characters they have
:|). If you want to learn the character sets, you're probably best off first
learning hiragana and katakana, both consisting of 46 characters. Hiragana
is the set of basic sounds (don't know a better word for it, English isn't
my native language either :P), with which you can compose a lot of words
(apparently that's what kids in Japan learn first as well). Katakana is a
set of characters used for "loan words"... when they use, for example,
English words, they write them with this character set (which often produces
funny sounding words as well).
These are the character sets (off some anime site I believe, hence the girls
next to the characters): http://mystgamedev.xs4all.nl/hiragana.jpg and
http://mystgamedev.xs4all.nl/katakana.jpg .
And anyone who knows I'm wrong or anything, please correct me :) I mostly
learn from what others tell me (a lot of my friends are big anime fans, and
one of them's even studying Japanese at a university, so I pick some things
up every now and then).

Regards,


Paul

You can get it through WebUpdate in Dev-C++.

OK, that's a little bit harder, but not so much:

=============================================
==== Setting up Dev-C++ to build Allegro ====
=============================================

1) Make sure you have working Dev-C++ installation. (You can do this
    by installing the latest Dev-C++ 5.0 beta with Mingw/GCC 3.2 from
    http://bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html ).

2) Run Dev-C++, go to Tools\Check for Updates/Packages... and
    install DirectX package (if you haven't done this already).
    Close the Dev-C++.

2) Open command line window in the directory where you have unpacked
    Allegro. Run these commands:

    c:\allegro> path c:\Dev-Cpp\bin;%PATH%
    c:\allegro> set MINGDIR=c:\Dev-Cpp
    c:\allegro> fix mingw32
    c:\allegro> make
    c:\allegro> make install

    where c:\Dev-Cpp is path to your Dev-C++ instalation (so adjust
    these commands appropriately)

3) that's all

==============================================
actually the current build docs are a little bit overcomplicated, the new release will have something like these (already fixed in CVS)

[Dev-C++] Re: Weird dialog corruption?

[Tuukka L. <Tuu...@su...>]

> I've never run into this before, and I don't know what's causing it.

Are you sore that working thread don't have memory leak problem ?
This chould be happend if pointer is incorrect and write data over own 
reserved memory. Becose application write own memory area windows think 
that there isin't are enything wrong and don't kill application.

The second idea is infinite loop that stop message processing.

[Dev-C++] Crtl-F9 does not recompile updated files

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

When I try to re-compile using Crtl-F9, the Dlgbox pops up as if it is 
compiling the program, but when I run the program the modifications I 
have just made to the code don't show! If I use Ctrl-F11 and then run 
program, the modifications then take place.
It seems that that Crtl-F9 is not compiling the newly updated files, so 
I have to "Built all".

Can anyone help?

[Dev-C++] Clanlib SDK

[<Ric...@co...>]

I was wondering if anyone has tried to use the clanlib sdk (http://www.clanlib.org/) 
with dev-c++ and if so how did they go about installing it. I would really appreciate 
any help that can be given on this. 
Thank you.

Ok, when *I* tried to install Allegro from a standalone download instead of
a devpak I had to follow a special tutorial for configuring it to work with
Dev-C++, and then it still didn't work :\

Re: [Dev-C++] How to create a devpack

[Matthews <dem...@uw...>]

http://www.yeohhs.com

The downloads section has a "How to make devpaks" article which is useful.
Devpaks are just tar.bz2 files with the files and a .devpackage text file
which contains the filenames and dirs for different parts of the package.
Yeoh's doc can explain better though.

Re: [Dev-C++] I am so boooooooooooooooooooored

[Lexus_L - U. <uz...@un...>]

Hi Neo,

do you have any ideas about C++ programming?!
If no, first you should buy a good C++ book for beginners. If you like,
I also can send you a pdf.document with some introduction about C/C++.
If you have already some knowledge about C/C++ you should change your
Internetprovider or order the Dev C++ by CD.

Kindly Regards,

Lexus

Hello.
My advice for you: Don't waste your time. No doubt, C is not for you, nor

[Dev-C++] Re: How to activate Edittext?

[Tuukka L. <Tuu...@su...>]

 >> Is there any way, to activate an edit button?
You mean set focus ?

Windows focused first enabled control that have lowest id number.
You can change resource file or write litle code.

During WM_INITDIALOG:
// Set keyboard focus (dot line) to IDB_EDIT button.
SetFocus(GetDlgItem(hDlg, IDB_EDIT));
// Set BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON style to button (black border).
// Usually OK button has this style.
SendMessage(GetDlgItem(hDlg, IDB_EDIT), BM_SETSTYLE,
     BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON, TRUE);
return FALSE;

To be exact, DJGPP compiles 32bit code. It uses cwsdpmi extender to run
the code under protected DPMI 0.9 mode (like Watcom uses DOS4GW
extender). To run DJGPP programs under windows, cwsdpmi is not needed,
as windows is in protected mode. Real mode 16bit programs can be built
with Borland C/C++ compiler (version less than 3.x) or with Turbo C
compiler or tools like that.
