[Dev-C++] Re: Dev C++ will not compile or run even a simple program

[erling b <erl...@ho...>]

Hi!

OS       - Windows XP
Compiler - Dev-C++ 4.9.7.0

What I did -

1. File
new
Project
Console application
OK

Create New Project Window
FileName Project 1
save

2. Wrote simple program

#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{

cout << "Hello world";


return 0;
}

3. Compile gave the following messages

1 C:\Dev-Cpp\main.cpp
from main.cpp
28 C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\iostream:44
bits/c++config.h: No such file or directory.
44 C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\ios
In file included from C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/ios
45 C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\ostream

45 C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\ostream
from C:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/ostream
etc etc

4. Program would not compile and, of course, would not run.

I have downloaded all the essential Windows Updates for Windows XP.

This is very frustrating.  Could someone please help me out?

Thanks

[Dev-C++] Dev-CPP and TCL

[Tulius L. <tul...@ho...>]

Hi Folks,


      Does anyone here has ever used Dev-Cpp and TCL together before?

      I read Loki Software's "Programming Linux Games" e-book, where they 
manage to link C/C++ and TCL to create a game scripting engine under linux.

      So I was wondering whether someone has done the same thing under 
Windows, with Dev-Cpp.



      TIA!

[Dev-C++] What's the difference? Pointers and regular variables

[Samuel K. <ib...@ly...>]

Pointers, as you have already stated, hold the address in memory of other variable(s). So what is the difference and when and when you should not use them? Well the difference is the fact that pointers hold an address, but I don't think that is exactly what you wanted, so I'm going to explain when you should use them.

Dynamic Allocation: That is a fancy two dollar word that simply means you can ask the system for more memory during runtime. For example:

int count;
int *dynamic;
cout << "\nPlease enter a number: ";
cin >> count;

if(count > 0)

   dynamic = new int[count]; //asking the system for memory equal
                             //to size of int times count (an array
else                         //of int in other words)

   cout << "\nBad value." << endl;

delete dynamic;              //returning the memory to system when
                             //done with it.


You can also use pointers to save both memory and runtime. For example, when you pass an object whether it be a class, struct, or array, it uses up much more memory if the computer has to make a copy of that array, class, struct everytime the function is called. (Note: arrays are automatically called by reference which is similar to pointers. It also uses up the runtime required to make a copy. It might take a little time to copy a billion objects for every function you call. The third reason you might want to use a pointer is if you want to change the parameter to a function. For instance if you want to raise the salary of every worker in class allTheCompanysWorkers you will HAVE to pass it by either reference or pointer so you can change them values otherwise you would have to change them where ever you created them. That can make things more complicated than necassary. There is also one other reason to use pointers some functions in standard C and C++ might require a pointer
 to a char array for instance or might return a pointer. In a situation like that you would also have to use pointer.

So when should I use regular variables, references, or pointers?

Simple you want to use regular variables in all regular conditions. The only times you don't want to use regular variables is in one of the four situations listed above. Otherwise you want to try to use call by reference if it is possible. The reason references are simpler is because they are just another name for the variable they refer to. They aren't anything new really. The reason you want to use reference if it is possible is because they are simpler than pointers. You can use reference variables if for instance you want to pass a large parameter but don't want the cost of copying everything in the object that you are passing. The only times you want to use pointers is for dynamic allocation and for type compatibility when calling a function someone else has written. I know that is a lot to understand right now, but keep programming and you will start picking up a feel for when you should use one over another.

Well, C & C++ don't support built-in port manipulation, as it is system 
dependant. For example, code written for Unix didn't be portable to Windows. 
The right thing to do is to use the API required by your target system, or 
some cross-platform tool, such as xwindows... Sorry, I can't give you better

Re: [Dev-C++] What's the difference?

[Adam M. <up...@in...>]

Hi.

If you don't need pointers - don't use them. Unfortunately sometimes it is
indispensable to use pointers. One little and simple example:
when you want to pass argument to function and this function
chages its value. To do this you must pass pointer or reference to
the argument. And one more usage of pointers - dynamic memory
allocation.

Adam

Re: [Dev-C++] What's the difference?

[<st...@xs...>]

This really depends on what you're doing.  The main benefit to pointers is that 
you can send them to functions where the function can modify the value of that 
pointer variable.  With normal variables they only get passed by value and 
since you can only have one return value per function it sometimes becomes 
necessary to modify the variables within your function rather than calling the 
funtion multiple times or writing multiple functions that return slightly 
different variables.

Thanks,
Steven

[Dev-C++] New project with GTK and Dev-Cpp 4970

[<fla...@ya...>]

Hi every body!

I am starting a new C++ project and I want to know if
I will be able to use GTK and Dev-Cpp 4.9.7.0

Are the packages working well? If not, how long do I
have to wait? I do not need it right now, since I am
in the research phase. What about GCC 3.2? How is it?

I do not want to start my project using the previous
versions because it will become a large project and in
the future I dont want to rewrite my code due to
version incompabilitty.

I´d appreciate to hear your comments.

Thanks,

Flavio.

[Dev-C++] Create lib file

[Strydom, J. (Jacques) <Jac...@ne...>]

Hi,

Am I correct in assuming that to make a library
file, the .o file created by the compiler just
have to be renamed. Or is it slightly more
complicated than that.

Regards
Jaques Strydom

You have my real admiration. It is inside my future scope to play with
graphics myself in the future (with OPENGL 2.x though). By the way have y=

checked Nvidia's Cg? If yes what's your opinion.=0D

I'll check it out, because what I really wan't is an egnine with
some certain characteristics and support for trueSpace format. The latter
I can fix by writing a trueSpace plugin to export to whatever format they 
are using. My idea was not to write a general 3d-engine, more an engine for 
my requirements and as a sideeffect make it free. But if
that can be done with Crystal or another that's a good idea.
Thanks for the tip

There are so many 3D engines today. Why not to join a team that already 
makes one? Of course only if you wish to make a free engine.
Look at
http://crystal.sf.net
for details on Crystal Space, a free (LGPL), and advanced 3D engine.

Why not call it just WO3D?

Mesa maybe? Again, look at what Crystal Space uses - if you wish to make 
a new engine.
