Re: [Dev-C++] Quick flat-file searching and I/O

[David M. <ci...@ya...>]

Small problem.

Room descriptions are strings of variable length. Also the
exit descriptions
are included in the same structure(also varible length
strings). This can
cause the size of a room to vary greatly).

This might still work if I were to put a limit on how long
a room
description could be and padd shorter descriptions to make
it  equal the
standard size

Hi,

By changing the connection string, you should be able to access FoxPro

thanks for your quick reply. The compiler itself i=

(purpose of the SDKs is integration=

The downloads are huge and=

In case you choose to install the=

Otherwise I can sent you (next=

Hello, Roberto.

I assume you are talking about using a C++ cross-compiler, or whatever it is
called, in Dev-C++.

I have written a utility to allow Dev-C++ to use unsupported compilers (by
mapping arguments and re-formatting output). It is available here:

	http://mudeth.tripod.com/dev_star.html

As of now, there is support only for Turbo C++ (tested) and Borland C++ 5.0
(untested). However, if you can point out a working copy of the compiler,
I'll be glad to write a plug-in for it.

Yes, as you see, it tells you, that time_t is not declared. Which means, 
that (assuming you have -DWIN32 on command line) sys/timeb.h is not 
going to be good for you. I suppose, that they used MSVC for the 
library's Windows port, and probably sys/timeb.h worked well for them. 
It is only my guess though.
Anyway, if you look at <sys/time.h>, you'll notice, that it actually 
includes <time.h>, which has time_t.
So what you need is: <sys/time.h>

I guess you already noticed all the above, as you asked about the 
difference details. I cannot tell you that, as I have never worked with 
time stuff under linux. Maybe a linux guru here can tell you more.

I hope this helps.

[Dev-C++] Default shortcut change

[P.D. v. Z. <pd...@xs...>]

Hi,

I wonder if this will get considered at all, but anyway. I find the
default shortcut for closing the current file quite annoying (I don't
even know if it's customizable)... Alt+F4 is used throughout Windows for
closing the entire application, and Ctrl+F4 is used (within MDI apps)
for closing the current MDI child window... it's not proper style for
Dev-C++ to go ahead and switch those around.. using Alt+F4 for closing a
file (and I can't seem to find a shortcut for closing the application).
I wonder if this could be changed to the default Windows behaviour...
Alt+F4 for closing the application, Ctrl+F4 for closing the current
file.

Thanks in advance,

[Dev-C++] Profiling a proyect, how?

[<ri...@te...>]

Hi
How can i use the profiler in Dev C++ ? I check the correct linker 
options ('generate debug information' and 'generate profiling 
information' too) both in the proyect options and compiler options (just 
to make sure ;)
But after building successfully my app I get the following messege when 
I choose "Profiler Analysis" from Compile Menu:
"Please run the proyect at least once so that profiling info is 
generated..."

And yes, I´ve run my proyect not once but n-times and i still get the error.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks in advance

[Dev-C++] Problem with libjpeg in Dev C++

Hello dev-cpp-users,

  I  want  to  compile  code  from  an OpenGL tutorial that uses libjpeg to read

No, it is likely a mistake of MinGW, the compiler in Dev-C++. Head on to
http://www.mingw.org
for details, and send a bug report. It is good that you have found it.
But first, download the latest Win32 API headers and libraries from the 
website (win32api), and see if it is fixed.

Yes, but because of buffering, it will only return, when you press an

[Dev-C++] Compiling in windows

[Pukara R. <puk...@ya...>]

Hello everybody. I would appreciate very much if someone can answer me the following:
 

1) I am using a system with some libraries. When I try to compile a program with those libraries I get a lot of errors. But just check the first one: 

C:\PROGRA~1\ACTIVM~1\ARIA\include\ArLog.h:83: ANSI C++ forbids declaration `FILE' with no type 
C:\PROGRA~1\ACTIVM~1\ARIA\include\ArLog.h:83: parse error before `*' 


Now checking that line in "ArLog.h" we have: 

protected: 
static FILE *ourFP; 

But that is a prefectly fine line as fas as I know. Why does DevC++ protest about this? Ansi forbids FILE with no type???? I don't get it. 

2) Hasnt nobody notice the mistake in file 
"c:\dev-c...\include\winsock2.h " 

In the last lines there is a '#' missing which makes the compile protest of unbalanced #endif's 
Did someone notice? Is it a mistake of DevC++? (Which by the way is wonderful! because I have never have hade these kind of weird errors and that is wyh I am perplexed) 
 
Please Help me.

Re: [Dev-C++] why does window close after execution? newbie

[Graham <sai...@bi...>]

The debate about which piece of code to use to stop the window from closing
is very interesting and educational and I thank all contributors
BUT
My question is can it be done without adding code.
The problem only occurs when I compile and run in DEV-C
When I take the work in to uni, they run it on grasp or something else where
this problem doesnt occur.
SO
My Question Is
is the not a setting in DEV-C that will make it keep the window open??
eg this is a DEV-C question  not a C programming question

thanking all for your assistance

Re: [Dev-C++] Quick flat-file searching and I/O

[Kevin W. <ke...@me...>]

Hi everyone,

I think the quickest way to access a portion of a file is to structure it, 
then use the fseek function from stdio.

In the case we are considering, the data for each room should be about the 
same size. For example, if the data for a room is 500 bytes, each room's 
data can be stored in a file at 500 byte intervals, then accessed using the 
standard library routines. So to access room 50, you would set the file 
pointer at 50 x 500.
                 fseek(room_file_pointer, room_number * 500, SEEK_SET);

If the data for each object is large, several files may be needed, maybe 
with an index file.

Kev.

Here's a shot... try this:

gluPerspective(45.0f,
	(GLfloat)App.Window.Width / App.Window.Height,
	0.1f, 100.0f);

Note the missing braces. This has probably to do with the order of
type-casting.

That looks quite interesting...
Would save me the trouble of re-writing the current file

Re: [Dev-C++] why does window close after execution? newbie

[Graham <sai...@bi...>]

woops .. obviously a newbie ...
I replied under the wrong subject
here it is with right subject header

I did look at the FAQ
this is where I found the Pause suggestion
my question was
can I prevent the window closing with a setting in DEV-C
When I was learning other languages and using JGrasp for instance it could
be set to not close the window so that the output could be viewed.   This
was not done by code added on the end each time but was done by a setting in
JGrasp ... I was hoping it was possible to change a setting in DEV-C to
achieve this.
I could not find an answer in the FAQ and wondered if anyone here could
assist.
Please forgive me if this is not the correct forum for such a question.

regards
Graham

This is indeed a VVVVVFAQ (very-very-very-very-...).
BTW this is absolutely NORMAL behaviour. To make the dos-prompt stay,
you need to pause your program at the end. Use this line before return:

getc();

This will wait for an "Enter".
(I don't like system("PAUSE"), as that is platform-dependent).
