[Dev-C++] IMPORTANT: VIRUS

[Abhijit S. <mu...@gm...>]

Greets, people.

I'm sorry, but I had a virus on my comp some days back. All you guys may
have received a message from me (a screensaver named `Love'). Tino, I got it
from you (you're infected, buddy). If you have received it and run it, then
you're infected too. If you haven't opened it, DON'T! Don't trust anti-virus
programs, unless you have the latest updates. Norton 2002 didn't detect it).
Here's what I did.

NOTE:

I have XP. I don't know if this process will work on Win9x. If it doesn't,
mail me, I'll try to help. Also, you have to follow these steps in the right
order.

CLEANING:

1. Delete the message (Not this one, stupid! The one that says `Love
screensaver' or something).

1. Try opening task-manager (press Ctrl-Alt-Del). If it disappears
immediately, it means you're infected. Regedit, Norton, etc. most probably
won't open too.

2. Download any process-viewer/killer application. I used PrcView (which
was, fortunately, already installed on my system). Get it at
http://www.teamcti.com.

3. Run it, kill the process called `WinServices.exe' or `WinServices'.
Confirm that you want to kill it when it asks you. Note that it is
`WinServices', not merely `Services', which is a legitimate process.

4. Delete the file
        c:\windows\system32\WinServices.exe
If you don't trust me, just back it up (keep it zipped, and rename it to
.tmp, so that there's no chance of accidental re-infection).

5. Go to `Start' > `Run'. Type `regedit', and click OK.

6. Navigate to
        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.

7. Delete the value on the right that says something like this:
        c:\windows\system32\WinServices.exe

9. Forward this mail to everyone in your address-book (if you use Outlook
Express/Netscape Messenger/Eudora/etc.) Web-mail users are safe (I think).

SYMPTOMS OF INFECTION:

1. Task manager closes as soon as it's opened.

2. Regedit, Anti-virus programs don't run.

3. You get mail from people in your people you don't know, saying that you
sent them a message.

4. People in you address-book get mail from you, when you haven't sent any.

5. Your hard-disk is thrashing.

Sorry for the long (and possibly unnecesary) mail.

[Dev-C++] question from a confused newbie about so much compiler-programs

[Andreas S. <and...@we...>]

hello,

i just downloaded the dev-cpp  file and installed it.  included is the c, 
cpp- compiler and other programs. i thought within the gnu software there 
ist one c-compiler and once c++-compiler but regarding the directories i 
find the following programs:

dev-cpp\bin:  c++.exe, c++filt.exe, cpp.exe, g++.exe, gcc.exe, 
mingw32-c++.exe, mingw32-g++.exe, mingw32-gcc.exe

dev-cpp\lib\gcc-lib\libmingw32\3.2: cc1.exe, cc1obj.exe, cc1plus.exe, cpp0.exe

what the hell are all these programs doing? and why are all these necessary ?
why there is not one c-compiler, one cpp-compiler and one preprocessor in 
the bin-directory ?

greetings
andreas

See if the `Programs' tab is properly set up (`Tools' > `Compiler Options' >
`Programs'). While you're at it, check the `Directories' tab also. My guess
is that one of these has not been configured properly. Try installing Dev
into a `simple' path; one without special characters (hyphens) and long
filenames, something like `d:\program\devcpp'.

It's weird that it happens only for large projects. How many files do you
have in the project?

> Is the gcc 2.95 version better?

Some options are unavailable (or changed) in 3.2, and therefore
corresponding options in Dev generate warnings that they're no longer
available. GCC 3.2 is much more ISO-compliant than 2.95, and also creates
more efficient (and sometimes smaller) EXEs. However, if you want to use Dev
with the project and nothing seems to work, 2.95 is worth a try.

And a Happy New Year!!!!! WOOHOO!

Sorry.

Re: [Dev-C++] TELSYS

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

Just a note.

On some systems, the case-insensitive function is named strcasecmp instead
of stricmp.

That's one of the reasons why people gets compile errors when trying to
build wxWindows  applications without using a correct project that defines
what target to build for.

[Dev-C++] strange errors

[Thomas B. <tho...@te...>]

Hi,

first thanks for the tip on SHFOLDER.DLL, Abhijit, now I can start
Dev-C++.

I have just begun using Dev-C++ (the most recent version) and have run
into some peculiar problems. When I try to compile a project with
sufficiently many files (it does not occur for small projects), I get
strange error messages when linking that in the "compiler" folder could
show up as

line
file
Message
G__~1.EXE         D:\PROGRAM\DEV-CPP\G__~1.EXE
Source2D:\Program\Dev-Cpp: No such file or directory

or in the "compile log" folder as

G__~1.EXE: Source2D:\Program\Dev-Cpp: No such file or directory

Here "Source2" is part of the name of a directory where I keep my source
code, and for some reason the string "D:\Program\Dev-Cpp" is appended to
this. I have no clue as to what to do. I have got other error messages
as well but I do not have time or space to list them all, common with
them all is that they are difficult to understand and occurs in the
context of large projects (that is my feeling at least).

Is Dev-C++ known to be unstable for large projects or am I using it in
the wrong way. Is the gcc 2.95 version better? I have used the source
code for many years on a several Unix platforms (including with GNU g++)
so it should compile. If anyone have a cure for this I would be very
happy.

Oh, by the way...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

/Thom

Re: [Dev-C++] Dev-Cpp for Linux is GNU ?

Hello,

Just to rectify something, you can consider that there is *NO* Dev-C++ for 
Linux that exists, the only version that is downloadable is *totally* 
unusable.

[Dev-C++] c++config.h

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

I recently tried to experiment with c++ specific functions, but I got 72
errors in the default generated code when selecting c++ console app as a
project.  It says I don't have c++config.h, so I tried re-installing
4.9.7.0, and had the same problem.  Normal C code works fine though.  Where
can I find c++config.h?

----- Original Message -----
The problem I get is when evaluating my input, I get errors....c++ permits
me to evaluate a single character but not string of characters.
----------------------------

Strings are actually arrays (which are actually pointers). So if you're
comparing these (remember that strings have to be put in quotes):

    char my_name[] = "Abhijit";
    char your_name[] = "Dondolo";

you would actually be comparing the pointers. You need to compare each
character. There is already a library function called strcmp(), which
compares them.

strcmp(first, second)

returns > 0 if first > second
        < 0 if first < second
        = 0 if first == second.

stricmp() is the case-insensitive version.

They're defined in <cstring>, and to access them, you would use the using
declaration:

using std::strcmp;
using std::stricmp; // Whichever

in the scope in which you want to use it (within the function, global,
etc.).

So I would say,

    if(stricmp(my_name, your_name) == 0)
        cout << "Hey, you're me!\n";

All this should have been written in the book you use (I assume you use a
book). If you don't have one, I suggest you get yourself a trustworthy book.

Are you sure, Oroszi? Because, the license says derivative works. So I
assume that's only derivative libs. Since I'm in feeling very weird today,
I'll use the analogy of derived classes...

class libc
{
};

class my_program
{
    protected:
        libc lib_interface;
};

class my_lib : public libc
{
};

So I assume here that only my_lib should distribute sources. my_program is
not required to, because I only use the lib, I don't derive from it.

AFAIK, the libraries are a separate project. The web-page for libc++ is
http://gcc.gnu.org/libstdc++/

Also,
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/documentation.html,
the documentation page links to a GNU GPL, so I guess the libs are GPL.

Bad news?

Anyway, Have a Happy New Years'.

The Windows version is released under the GNU GPL too. I believe you are
misinterpreting the above section, 1b. Any program you DERIVE from or that
CONTAINS code from Dev-C++ must be released under the GNU GPL too. NOT
programs you create with it. (Yes, you are free to change and redistribute
GPL'd programs, just credit the original work to the original authors.)

Do you see the difference? In one scenerio you are stealing someone else's
code, in the other you are using it as a tool to create your own.

I suppose the question is, are the libraries under linux GPL or LGPL. If GPL, it 
means you must release the source, because it contains functions from the 
libraries. If LGPL, then you don't need to release the source.

Well, lets just call it MinGW, because it will support 64 bit and higher systems 
too. And yes, MinGW is available as a cross-compiler under Linux. So you can 
develop Windows programs under Linux. (And test it with wine (Win Emulator) :)

[Dondolo M. <MDo...@OL...>]

Hi all,

I am wiggling my way around C++ currently, I am not doing a bad job at all.
(Well at least I think)...I am trying to write a simple telephone directory
system that will store all my buddies contact details. I intend on storing
their info in separate functions. for example:
                                                        void
MarkContact(void)
                   				{
						//Marks contact details
                                                            }

				and so on.....

I want to be able to open the program, enter someone's name and get their
stored details. The problem I get is when evaluating my input, I get
errors....c++ permits me to evaluate a single character but not string of
characters.

e.g.
                                 /*

			all include files			
                                    and declarations

                           */
                   cout<<"Please enter a persons name";
                    cin<<Name;
              switch(Name)
                        {
                        case   Mark:                      
                                          MarkContact();
                                         break;
//the rest of the program

can someone please help me or advise me of any other method.........

I fail to understand what the clause in the license has to do with the Linux
version being different. I haven't ever seen it, though, so maybe I'm
missing something. Isn't it free? Isn't it too distributed under the GNU
GPL?

Or are you talking about the commercial-applications part? If that's the
case, then I don't think there's any conflict. As I understand, when they
talk about works derived from Dev, they mean programs that use, in part or
whole, the source-code or ideas of Dev, not programs that are developed
using the Dev IDE. Also, there is the distinction between IDE and compiler,
and Dev is merely the IDE. The compiler, MinGW32, is an independant project.
It stands for Minimalistic GNU for Win32, and is meant for developing
programs on the Windows32 platform. So, obviously, it is not available on
Linux (except maybe as a cross-compiler, I've never ventured in that Part Of
The World).

Did I understand wrong?

Once again, a Happy New Year to everyone (I'm going to keep saying this for

Somewhere in the documentation author of Dev-C++ is claiming that

It is very OK :) But...

The documentation for Dev-C++ Linux states that this is a GNU project
and included GNU licence file has a very widely used statement:

That means that Linux version is different ? Why ?
I guess Mingw32 is not implemented on Linux, am I correct ?

There are probably many differences in the standards that Turbo-C implmented
and the current C++ standards that GCC 3.2/2.95 use. The <foo.h> headers are
also deprecated and GCC might refuse to compile programs using 'em
(depending on what version you have and how it's configured). Instead,
you'll have to use <cfoo> and the `using' directive. GCC will warn you about
main() not returning int, since I remember that many TC programs used simply
`main()', in place of `int main()'. Also, there are the differences in
memory-management (far-pointers, segments and offsets versus the linear
memory model). Furthermore, DOS interrupts are unavailable in Win32. And
programs that assume word-length to be equal to integer length will have
problems (in Win32, word-length is short-integer length). For BGI, I
remember reading on this list that there's a port for Windows available
called WinBGI or something. Check the archives. For programs with <conio.h>,
there's an entry in the FAQ.

That's all I can think of now. Most of the (simple) examples should be
pretty straightforward to port. Simply try to compile, and try to rectify
one error at at time.

HTH.

And people, have a safe, but otherwise chaotic, New Years'.

Thanks a lot for your help guys! It is greatly appreciated.

Try linking in the WinSock2 lib, as Charles mentioned.

For this, you might want to use the command-line/make, or else, specify in
compiler options that you want the WinSock lib to be linked with all your
programs. Remove it once you're done with this project. Bit of a hassle.
Command-line would be better.

I have tried Dev-c++5(4.9.7.0) with gcc 2.9.5.
and after a compiled version of wxWindows that you can find in:
    http://oek-news.mnd.fh-wiesbaden.de/devc++/

and it run.

wxwindows2.3.3 works with gcc3.2 (the official wxwindows from 
www.wxwindows.org, not the packages, I never achieved to make them 
work), and using makefiles, search in the mailing list for makeprog.g95.

Re: [Dev-C++] Re: DevC++ & wxWindows

[Goran K. <go...@vo...>]

Thanks,
I decided for the first option because I have no preferrence regarding the
compiler.
I also thank Yeoh for his help in a direct mail.
I made it to compile an empty project.

It stopped again when I tried to compile thewxWindows samples.
I imported the MS VC Realease project of some of them but failed to link
"libz".

I've got a "libzlib.a" from DevC++4(just for a try), but got unlninked
functions (part follows):
C:/IDE/DEVCPP5/lib/libwx.a(app.o)(.text+0x447): undefined reference to
`InitCommonControls@0'
C:/IDE/DEVCPP5/lib/libwx.a(app.o)(.text+0x451): undefined reference to
`OleInitialize@4'
C:/IDE/DEVCPP5/lib/libwx.a(app.o)(.text+0x102a): undefined reference to
`OleUninitialize@0'
C:/IDE/DEVCPP5/lib/libwx.a(statbr95.o)(.text+0x3ee): undefined reference to
`CreateStatusWindowA@16'
C:/IDE/DEVCPP5/lib/libwx.a(utils.o)(.text+0x31e): undefined reference to
`WSAStartup@8'
C:/IDE/DEVCPP5/lib/libwx.a(utils.o)(.text+0x348): undefined reference to
`gethostname@8'
etc...
I probably have to link some windows specific lib. Which?

I found it strange that didn't found resources defined in wx/msw/wx.rc
I defined an prolog to absolute folder location for every resource and now
it works.
Shouldn't it get it from the include folders list?

I also upgraded to 4.7.9.1 and found some new GUI bugs there.
Does it have some side effects on compiling/linking, too?

Regards,
Goran

[Marshall B. <mlb...@ho...>]

My apologies.

I wrote:

 >> a debug build of the library will not work -- an executable linked 
against such will report a library mismatch..

Adding the compiler option "-D__WXDEBUG__" to the application solves the 
problem when linking to a debug build of the wxWindows lib.
