[Dev-C++] Sorting Queues

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

A bit of a strange question here. I want to make a queue that I 
can search through for a flag and if the flag is set to one condition 
perform operation A. If it is set to another condition do operation 
B, etc, etc. I thought an effiecent way to do this would be to sort 
the items before they go onto the queue, but to do this I would 
have to have a function that can stick a queue element in between 
other elements. With arrays this is terribly wastiful of time. Linked 
lists are better but if I want to stick an element right in the 
middle, I still have to follow the links all the way down the list. 
I thought of dynamically allocating an array of pointers that point 
to a datatype T (template) but I would still have to worry about 
a bunch of assignment operations. The last option I can think of 
is my original flag with an array, but I really wish I could come 
up with a better way to sort the queue. Your help is appreciated.

[Dev-C++] Compiler Errors Don't Show

[Broderick H. <br...@am...>]

I'm using the latest beta of 5, it maybe the reason I'm having this =
problem
because it is beta.  I was wondering is anyone having problems
seeing compiler errors.  I'm compiling a file that I know has errors
but nothing shows up in the compile tab at the bottom.  It looks like
it does, but it disappears very quickly like a flash.

I download source of reimp, but I have problems with compiling it. How
I can do it under Win+DevCpp?
I think that I can use makefile from reimp's source with 'make' from
DevCpp's 'bin' derictory. but it doesn't undestand this makefile
(errors....)
also I tried to compile it with DevC++, but there is so much errors :(

any Ideas?

You will find somme usefull stuff at :

http://www15.brinkster.com/vigasotech/code.html
(in this one there is directx 9 SDK for mingw)

http://www.spacejack.org/games/mingw/mingw-dx.html

not tested at all...

and last but not least
http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/packages/

with a directx 8 devpack (I am not a game developper but I think that 
directx 8 should be powerfull enought)

regards

Michel

PS : opengl is integrated in wxwindows, SDL and many other cross 
platform libraries) perhaps it could be simplest than directx.

Re: [Dev-C++] creating buttons, radio buttons but how do you group them?

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

Alternative 1:
Give the first radio button of each group the WS_GROUP flag.

Alternative 2:
Insert a group box with flag WS_GRUOP.
Insert radio buttons for first group.
Insert a nwe group box with flag WS_GROUP.
Insert radio buttons for second group.

The WS_GRUOP flag tells Windows to separate the different radio buttons.

Re: [Dev-C++] creating buttons, radio buttons but how do you group them?

[<cg...@wo...>]

I've no great experience with this, but for what I've read:
You just make that each of the group member withc consequtive IDs, so 
you can use the function CheckRadioButton(HWND of the parent, int ID of 
the first button, int ID of the last, int ID of the one you want check); 
So you check that button and uncheck the others with just this call.

Re: [Dev-C++] converting .lib to .a

[<cg...@wo...>]

It's said that mv .lib .a should do it. But if you see at the command 
help, it's just like renaming the file.
Other say that you shall use reimp (I believe it's in mingwutils, see 
www.mingw.org).
But it is also said that MSVC and MinGW use coff format. Borland uses 
OMF, and reimp, would be for use over borland's libs.
Anyway, you can try either way.

Re: [Dev-C++] Including Function From Other .cpp files

[Wobien <wo...@pl...>]

Never include .cpp files.
Make a header file (functions.h) and put the function prototypes in the
header file.
Include the header file in the .cpp files that call the functions and in
functions.cpp.
You can also split up your functions.cpp in different files for different
groups of functions, and  #include "functions.h" in each of them.

If you want to make a compiled library with your functions you can make a
new static library project and add all the functions files to it.
Compile them and (suppose you called the project you get a .a library file
Now when you want to use the functions you add the library to the project
(Dev-C++ 4.9.7.1: Project-project options-Compiler-Compiler Options-Add
Library or Object)
and include your header file in the .cpp files that use the functions.

If you want to use the functions in several projects this is better. If the
functions are in a library (.a) file only the functions that are used are
put into the .exe file.

It is also possible to use the archiver to make library files that are
automaticly found by the linker, like many library files in the .lib
directory. I never did that, so I can´t tell you about it.

[Dev-C++] creating buttons, radio buttons but how do you group them?

[Danny R. <dro...@ho...>]

I know how to create radio buttons with the usage of CreateWindowEx but =
i wish to make two set's of radio buttons each set
containing three pieces, as the following example:

Delelete file
 O No
 O Yes
 O Ask

Move file
 O Noway
 O Sure
 O Ask me first

These two sets have to be on the samen window but one radiobutton in a =
set may only deselect the other's in the same
group instead of in my current situation they all communicatie with each =
other without me doing anyting.

I already have been reading about "in the same group" article's but i =
can't find an example how to define those who must
be in one set and the others in the second set of radiobuttons.

Can someone give me advise on this!.

Thanks,

Danny.

[Dev-C++] R:Including a Library

[<jd...@ka...>]

The file not found is iostream and not apstring.h.
The rule is:
if the included file is embraced by <>, the file have to be located in the
include dir.
If the include is embraced by "" the compiler searches the included file in
the current dir, then in the include dir.

P.S. Sorry for my English. I'm Italian !

[Dev-C++] Including Function From Other .cpp files

[<bal...@cf...>]

I am converting some code from various other programming languages into C++. 
However, I really want to build a library of functions within various C++ 
files. However, I am not certain how to call functions from different cpp 
files.

I assume include the .cpp file. However, do I put the function prototype in 
the code calling the function or leave everything in my functions.cpp file?

Any help, advise and pointers would be greatly appreciated...

[Dev-C++] Including a Library

[<Soo...@ao...>]

Ok, I'm somewhat of a newbie, though I know how to do MS-DOS stuff, which is 
what I'm using Dev-C++ for now.  Anyway.

I found the code used in "aptring.h" and "apstring.cpp" on the internet, and 
made files by those names with that code in Dev-C++.  In my program, I use 
the following include commands:

#include <aptring.h>
#include "apstring.cpp"

The Compiler is able to find apstring.cpp, but not apstring.h.  I have 
apstring.h in both My Documents (where I save everything to) as well as the 
"Include" subfolder of the Dev-C++ folder.  The error message I get from the 
Compiler is:

"C:\ALEX'S~1\DEV-C_~1\Include\apstring.h:4: iostream : No such file or 
directory"

Dev-C++ is extracted to C:\Alex's Xtras\Dev-C++

The file is in:

"C:\Alex's Xtras\Dev-C++\Include"

Can anyone help?

When a filename appearing in an include directive, is quoted, search will

You can compile wxwindows with dev-c++ (import visual c++ project)
use mingw provided with dev-c++ from the command line

finaly you can use my devpack

 (look previous e-mails)

[Dev-C++] Edit control problem (WIN32)

[<mr...@c2...>]

Hi,

I am facing a strange problem with an edit control that I use
as a status window.

The control is created with this call to CreateWindow:

(line breaks may be garbled by the mailer..)

CreateWindow("edit", "",
WS_CHILD | WS_DLGFRAME | WS_VISIBLE | WS_VSCROLL | ES_MULTILINE | 
ES_READONLY, 10, 25, 470, 160, hwnd,
(HMENU) ID_STATUS, hProgInst, NULL);


I catch the WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message like this:

case WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC:
{
	if(GetDlgCtrlID((HWND)lParam) =3D=3D ID_STATUS)
    {
    	SetBkMode((HDC)wParam, TRANSPARENT);
       SetTextColor((HDC)wParam, RGB(50, 50, 150));
       return (LRESULT)GetStockObject(LTGRAY_BRUSH);
    }
}break;

This gives me blue text on a lightgray background in the control.

Now comes the problem: If the text in the edit control is large 
enough that the user needs to move the scrollbar to see the text, the 
text becomes garbled, ie the edit control does not repaint it's 
window correctly.

If, however, I don't change the color of the control (by not catching 
the WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message), everything is fine, and the control 
repaints just fine when scrolling.

What am I missing here?

Any suggestions?
Thanks,
