Yup! nice solution!

i get to answer 2 problems with one email! :)

1. go to 'Tools-->Configure Tools'
2. click Add
3. for Title, add "Run Program"
4. for Program, add:
      "cmd" (windows nt,2k,xp)    or
      "command" (windows 9x,me)
5. for Working Directory, add "<PROJECTPATH>"
6. for Parameters, add: "/K <EXENAME>"
7. Click OK

now whenever you need to run, go to 'Tools-->Run Program'

[Daniel K. O. <dan...@ya...>]

Just to add...


The C++ programs get bigger cause they use static C++ libraries, as it 
was not feasible to make MinGW work with Microsoft's C++ Runtime 
library. MinGW users decided they didn't want to ship a DLL for their 
C++ programs, so it gets linked staticaly. (but I don't know if the 
latest MinGW 3.1 has an option to compile it dimamically, with a 
separated DLL)

About what Zelst wrote, could you please tell why stripping (with the -s 
linker flag) is not recommended?

And about the PrintCpp.exe... damn, 1 MB for a hello world? You probably 
activated the debug info. Try disabling it, setting an optimization 
level, and adding the -s to the linker flags. Here it compiled with 209 KB.


AND last, but not least, a request for the Devs: add a button in the 
compile window saying: "Wanna reduce your exe's size? Click here", and 
popup the tip-of-the-day window with those explanations.

Well, yes but there is a /K option to the DOS statement "command" that 
should keep the window open. I've just been, unsuccessfully, trying to 
figure a way to get it to recognize that option.

Most anything can be done if you want it bad enough. Does that mean it's 
easy -- that it's worth doing -- that we'll ever figure it out :)

thanks,"Per Westermark" <pw...@ia...> 

http://mrsimon.tripod.com/DevC.html

i went to the above web page and followed exactly the
instructions inside to add the winbgim.h and etc..
into the include folder... 

but what i got was just error which intercepted with
the conio.h .Then i remove the conio.h into another
folder, but still i couldn't find the winbgim.h...

can anyone try it and tell me what u got? for your
information i am under window XP environment.

[Dev-C++] exe file size

[Roger C. <rc...@ic...>]

Dear sir,
 
I wrote some programs using Dev-C++ using C coding and C++ coding. I realize a 
too big difference between the size generated by each coding way. Is there a 
way to generate smaller executable C++ files. Bellow, there is an example 
showing this:
 
Example using C:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
main()
{
    printf("\nHello\n");
}

The size of the generated by Dev-C++ PrintC.exe file is 27,856 bytes.

Example using C++:
#include <iomanip.h>
main()
{
    cout << endl << "Hello" << endl;
}

The size of the generated by Dev-C++ PrintCpp.exe file is 1,268,542 bytes.

Thank you for your help
 
Roger

I do not agree with this. Of  course, it is the standard behaviour but I
do not find  it very confortable. In particular, from  a developer point
of view, I would like to see my  output. At the same time I am much more
used to press compile&run, than compile - switch window - execute.

Moreover, other compilers  behave in a different manner  (anyway for all
other aspects I like dev c++ a bit more).

Re: [Dev-C++] graphic using Dev c++

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

1: gotoxy isn't graphics but nonstandard code used for text output to
console.
2: check the history of this list. there have quite resently - even today
- been a lot of discussion about a port of borland graphics interface bgi
for use by Windows programs.
3: you might use windows graphics. Just create a device context, select a
pen and then draw with it.

RE: [Dev-C++] How to not close output win?

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

How about the simplest solution of them all. Simply open a command prompt
yourself, go to your project directory, and execute your console program
from the command line. All those code workarounds are evil. Your "output
window" (console) closes because Dev-C++ simply launches the executable it
just compiled. Windows is responsible for the rest. In Windows, when a
console program has finished executing, its console is closed as well. This
is normal, standard behaviour, and has nothing to do with Dev-C++ (and
Dev-C++ isn't responsible for fixing this either). The solution to this
'problem' is to simply open a command prompt yourself (which you have to
close by yourself as well, will not be automatically closed), and execute
your program in there. Or has the Windows age alienated everyone from
anything having to do with command prompts?

Paul

You can use  "atexit" :
atexit()
Prototype: int atexit(void (_USERENTRY * func)(void)); Header File: stdlib.h
ANSI: C and C++
Explanation: Use atexit to have a function called when the program exits.
The parameter it accepts is a function name, without the typical () of a
function call. It must return void and accept no values (hence the use of
void in the prototype of atexit). If atexit is called more than once, the
last function passed to it will be the first one executed. It can be used up
to 32 times.

Example:
#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
//Program calls atexit with FinalFunction //FinalFunction is executed before
program ends void FinalFunction(void) {
  cout<<"Final function called - Press enter to exit";
  cin.get();   // or  system("pause") 
}
int main()
{
  atexit(FinalFunction);
  return 0;
}

Create an exit function that has the system pause in it.  Then,
everywhere you wish to exit, call the exit function.  Only have to have

Hi Neszt,

Kind rgeards

Natalie

-------------------------------------------------------------------

add the following line just before the return in your main function
  system("PAUSE");=20

If you create a new project in Dev-cpp it gens an intial main function =
with this in it by default:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
 =20
  system("PAUSE");=20
  return 0;
}

This should remedy the closing of the window.

More elegant than mine,  but still not very confortable. I  had to put a
wait() at every exit point.

If You are debugging Your program, You can execute:

 yourprogram.exe > debug.txt

and the printf output will be stored to the debug.txt file. 

Another way to write an opengl function, to display your txt on the opengl
screen. Like this: 

void txtout(char *txt) {
  int i;

  for (i=0 ; txt[i]!='\0' ; i++) {
    glutBitmapCharacter(GLUT_BITMAP_HELVETICA_10, txt[i]);
  }
}

I have found the following, works fine for me, but don't ask me

void wait ()
{
~    cin.clear ();
~    cin.ignore ( cin.rdbuf () -> in_avail () );

Hi,

Is there any solution (apart to use kludges like system("pause"); at the

RE: [Dev-C++] dev BGI library OS dependant behaviour

[Mark S. <mar...@li...>]

Hi all
Well here is a little more info which I obtained from Konstantin Knizhnik
the original author of the windows port of winbgi. On win98 if I set the
display properties settings to 256 colors then the software works OK on the
win98 machine, does this suggest a possible fix?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi all
firstly thanks to Yeoh for the dev project files for the static library &
bgidemo (  http://www.yeohhs.com/shareware/winbgi_DevCpp.zip ) 
When I use the outtext() function & run on win2000 the text is in the colour
set by setcolor and the background colour is as set by setbkcolour as one
would expect, but if I rebuild & run it on a win98 machine the text colour
is OK but the background colour goes to black irrespective of what I set the
background colour to.
Does anyone have a fix or must I live with the performance difference
between the OS ?
P.S. I'm not familiar with windows API programming :-(

TIA
Mark

[Dev-C++] GTK+ and others?

[<gen...@ya...>]

hello all,

i posted this in the gimpwindev (or something like that) Yahoo! group, but i want to post this here too.

quite a few of the mirrors for the packages for Dev-C++ are, shall i say, MIA. http://devcpp.everfloyd.com is down, and www.softnews.ro doesn't host dev-c++ anymore. planetmirror still does, but doesn't have the updated GTK devpak.

lastly, if you created a devpak, you might want to share it with us. i found a few devpaks that weren't listed on the Bloodshed software devpak page, such as one for the FOX tooklit, a real, live Allegro devpak (not a zipfile/installer), and an updated wxWindows (v 2.4.0) devpak, all by searching for devpaks on google.

PS. i'm not sure if anyone knows that zlib comes with the imagelib devpaks. thanks, though Yeoh

"C:\Program Files\Dev-C++\Bin" or similar. So this is where your =
application will look when trying to open a file.=20

>To get around this. either specify the full path of the files you are =
trying to open, or put the files in the same place as your DevC++ =
application. The first suggestion is the more elegant and efficient.=20

When i compile and run my program, the files I am trying to read from =
are not being found. They are located in the same directory as my .cpp =
files and the program works at a different location running Win 2000!=20
