[Dev-C++] Has anyone used Dev-C++ for embedded targets?

[Eric E. <eng...@ya...>]

I just found out about this project a week ago. 

I would like to use Dev-C++ with a GNU C compiler to
target 68hc12 embedded processors.

Has anyone done anything like this already?

I'm a Delphi programmer and I can probably port the
Dev-C++ version 4 source code for this purpose. But I
don't have Delphi 6, so I can't use the newest
sources.

Hi,

Just started today picking my programming hobby after 10 years when i =
used an amiga and a whole different programming
enviroment, i feel like a rookie again in the world of programming with =
c++ with dev4 & windows.....

Can someone tell me how to get the current directory, i think it would =
be something like this:

string test;

void main(void)
{

test =3D GetCurrentDir();



return 0;
}

But ofcourse, this doesnt work.... someone.. enlighten me..

i tryed all kinds of material but couldn't find something that worked =
with dev4 and i dont know where i have to find the problem.

thanks for your help

Danny.

//i dont know if its valid in C++, but with C, please do not void man()...
//it should return integer. otherwise, the behaviour is undefined. :)

If I understand your problem corrrectly, you are unable to see the "Hello
world." message that is supposed to print out.  To rectify this, add
#include <stdlib.h> and in the line preceeding the return 0 command add
system("PAUSE");

Also, I do not understand why you #included windows.h.  There's no reason
to at all.

Hej all,

I'm using Win98 SE and DevC++ version 4 (not the newest).
The installed dir is C:\dev-C++ with Ming compile system (incl. in the

My problem is I can not se whether the exe file runs or not.
There are no error message after compiling.
The c files are just a "Hello world" print out.
All the files are in 2 zip files, one for proj03 and the second for proj04.

The second question is the different between Ansi C and C and which is most
suitable with DevC++.

Thanks a lot

Thank you, I tried it over my complete files and works fine.
I use MinGW 2.0.0-2 separately from Dev, too.
In my code there was nothing more than that movement between files, I'll=20
try to rebuild it and see what happens now. I neither tried yet to enter=20
your test inside my project. I'll do it one of these couple days.
Thanks again.

Re: [Dev-C++] rookie question... Getting the current directory

[Brenden T. <br...@rc...>]

Try getcwd():

  	  /#include/ /<unistd.h>/
	  /#include/ /<io.h> // <stdio.h> is standard but MinGW uses io.h/

	  /main()/
	  /{/
	       /char/ /*cwd;/
	       /if/ /((cwd/	/=/ /getcwd(NULL,/ /64))/ /==/ /NULL)/
	       /{/
		    /perror("pwd");/
		    /exit(2) <http://www.mcsr.olemiss.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?exit+2>;/
	       /}/
	       /(void)printf("%s\n",/ /cwd);/
	       /free(cwd);/
	       /return(0);/
	  /}/

The man page is at:
http://www.mcsr.olemiss.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?getcwd+3

Note that this is POSIX, Windows has their own non-portable API for 
directory and file operations.

Good luck!

I just downloaded Devcpp4, all the files: upgrade, devcpp4.exe,
devcpp401,devcpp4.src and installed all. You may want to check if this
software is compatible with your OS. I installed the Devcpp on my NT and
followed the same instruction from www.cprogramming.com today as a test
and it works.
You may have to reinstall again to make sure everything is done correctly.
 Let me know what the outcome is.

Subject: [Dev-C++] Dev C++ on Windows XP

Hi,

  I just downloaded and installed dev C++ for my windows XP machine. I
opened the hello project (hello world) and tried to compile it. But the
compiler is giving lots of errors saying that iostream.h is not available.
All the header files are there but the system is not able to recognize it.
Do I have to set some environment variables or something?? What do I need
to do? Your kind inputs in this regard would be appreciated.

Re: [Dev-C++] array of strings

[Brenden T. <br...@rc...>]

Balazs is correct.  However, there are a few other ways to do this.  For 
example, the C standard says that command line parameters will be passed 
into main as a count, and as an array of pointers to stings, just as 
Balazs said:

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

argc is the ARGument Count, and argv is the ARGument Vector.  However, 
argv has one other little trick.  It actually has argc + 1 vectors, and 
the last vector is always NULL, so you can just ignore argc and count 
through the strings untill you find the NULL one, and that is the end. 
 Obviously, this wouldn't work if some of your strings in the middle 
have to be NULL, so watch out, but if they don't then it's a nice 
alternative to having to maintain a seperate count, although a little 
tricky to maintain.  See K&R section "Command Line Arguments" more info 
and nice pictures.

Also, you could have structure that has the count in the beginning and 
then a variable sized char* vector after it.  I believe gcc allows you 
to declare variable sized vectors like this:
struct string_vect{
 int count;
 char *string[0];
} string_vect;

Then you have just one variable to pass into functions instead of two. 
 Again the maintainace cost is a little higher (you have to remeber to 
allocate memory for this structure properly, i.e. malloc( sizeof (struct 
string_vect) + sizeof (char* [10])) for ten strings for example, but 
perhaps this would be better in the long run for you.

Good luck!
B.

P.S. I did NOT compile and check any of the code example given here. 
 Use at your own risk!

I tried a simple test program, it works fine with your input (FC returns no
differences). I'm running GCC 3.2. See if this program works with source.txt
being the above values.

----------- Start ------------
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

int main()
{
    using std::cout;
    using std::cerr;
    using std::endl;

    const int BUF_SIZE = 256;
    char buf[BUF_SIZE];

    std::ifstream in_file;
    std::ofstream out_file;

    in_file.open("source.txt");
    if(!in_file)
    {
        cerr << "Couldn't open source.txt\n";
        return 1;
    }
    out_file.open("dest.txt");

    while(!in_file.eof())
    {
        in_file.getline(buf, BUF_SIZE);
        out_file << buf << endl;
        cout << buf << endl;
    }

    return 0;
}

---------- Stop ------------

Tell me what you get. If you get the error (or even if you don't), try
upgrading to the latest MinGW with GCC 3.2. The URL I used is
http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/mingw/MinGW-2.0.0-2.exe.

It may be out-dated now. Check the MinGW website.

Re: [Dev-C++] number of array elements!

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

I believe strlen() would work in this case.  It counts the number of
characters in an array until it reaches the null terminator (which would be
the '\0' character, making yours redundant.)

Re: [Dev-C++] number of array elements!

[Khalid El-K. <kha...@ho...>]

Thanx for your help!

i just wanted to add that i need something for C not C++ ;), so i decided to 
end the arrays with "-1" and then check for it, that's only in case i have 
no "-1" in the array itself! and that's the case here

have a nice hard coding! :)

Regards,
Khalid Al-kary

[Dev-C++] Win exe files do not run / Ansi C or pure C

[Tri N. <tr...@ge...>]

Hej all,
I would like to learn C and make win exe.
I'm using Win98 SE and DevC++ version 4 (not the newest).
The installed dir is C:\dev-C++ with Ming compile system (incl. in the
package)
My problem is I can not se whether the exe file runs or not.
There are no error message after compiling.
The c files are just a "Hello world" print out.
All the files are in 2 zip files, one for proj03 and the second for proj04.

The second question is the different between Ansi C and C and which is most
suitable with DevC++.

Thanks a lot

TriMy,

[Dev-C++] question about printing

[Vlada D. <dj...@im...>]

Hi, everybody.
I want to include printing in my application. I wanted to do this using
common dialogs (page setup dialog, print dialog), but when I saw that
gigantic DEVMODE structure, I gave up. Do I have to fill the entire
structure manualy, or I can use some default values? Is there a way to get
informations about printers from the system? I am also confused about
members of DEVNAME structure. I don't want to be anoying, but I hope someone
can give some general idea about using these dialogs and printing. Thanks.

Re: [Dev-C++] rookie question... Getting the current directory

[Vlada D. <dj...@im...>]

I didn't try this, but maybe it could work:

#include <stdlib.h>

void main(void)
{
    test=3Dsystem("cd");
}
Since your main function is declared as void, it shouldn't return =
anything.

[Dev-C++] getline crazyness

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

  Happy new year tewnty three (hurra for the Empire!)

I need make an operation over a huge amount of files, basically I 
fstream.getline(buffer, 255); and then I do whatever. The problem is in 
all the files one line is treated badly:

original:

3.429    145.1683002    5.4    0.908401    43.66
3.629    174.13    5.28    0.9093    42.86
3.859    175.61    5.14    0.909673    41.9
4.172    177.08    5.01    0.909293    40.8
4.649    178.56    4.91    0.908071    39.57

result: (I simply I original.getline(buffer, 255); result << buffer << endl;

3.429    145.1683002    5.4    0.908401    43.66
3.629    146.6423431    5.28    0.9093    42.86
671    -26.5866636    40.8   //WHY THIS HAPPENS??????????????????!!!!!! 
I'M ABOUT TO KILL MY COMPUTER!!!!!
4.649    151.707065    4.91    0.908071    39.57

These are a couple of lines from original which includes the conflicting 
line:, the previous one and a couple of the previous and the next. I 
don't see any conflicting value. I tried to onherit from fstream and 
write my own getline, so it will stop only with '\n' or end of buffer 
size, but I get the same error.

I've made a count and it seems like getline doesn't recognize the 
newlines, and is filling the buffer till the 255 characters I specify as 
length limit, then it jumps about the number of characters per line to 
the next line, althought all the operations which are done in a 
line-per-line basis are done correctly for each line. I want substract a 
value for the second one each line, and all lines have the second value 
they need. I've tried increasing the size of the buffer and value passed 
to getline as delimiter, I doubled the size and then it makes the same 
error in the next line than before, then I double it again, but then 
there is no difference, the error doesn't run to the next line.
I tried to make it a UNIX kind of file (through an editor program with 
this ability) but the result is still the same. In getline I checked as 
delimiter for \n, \r, 10, 13 and 12, and nothing worked.

Here is the piece of code where the fail happens, when passing from the 
input file to the temporary one:

while(inFile.eof() == false){
inFile.getline(buffer, 5096);
first = buffer[0];
if (first == '/') //Some lines are commented with //, I want quit them.
point = &buffer[2]; //I know if ther first is / the second is the same.
else
point = buffer;
if (tempFile.is_open()) //Compiled with and without this line.
tempFile << point << endl; .
cout << point << endl;
}

But if in cout the lines are right, then getline is working fine, the 
error is in tempFile << point << endl...

I'll have to recode with plain C file functions (I've done it changing 
fstream.getline with fgets and fstream << with fprintf, now it works 
with other odd errors which at least don't invalidate the files, like 
printing lines more than once).
However remains the question, why can it happen?

No, I suppose in C it is not possible. In C a "string" is considered a 
non-string array, because it is an array of char-s (char[]). And every "string" 
in C (a char[]) must be terminated with a '\0' character, which means that the 
last element must be '\0', otherwise you don't know, where to stop.
So you need to store the number of elements in another variable, or you need a 
special value, that will indicate the end of the array.

I think.

That's right, you cannot count the number of elements, if you created the array 
of char* pointers dynamically. You need another variable to store the number of 
elements. This is normal.

[Dev-C++] number of array elements!

[Khalid El-K. <kha...@ho...>]

Hi,
i'm a newbie asking about how can i count the number of elements in a 
non-string array? is this possible?

infact returning to the origin from where the array was initialized will 
affect the efficency--causing me to run the same function twise!

thanx for any help

[Dev-C++] array of strings

[Khalid El-K. <kha...@ho...>]

Hi,
I'm a newbie, just wanted to ask about the best way to make an array of 
strings (without using a string class) i mean using pointers "char *".

I tried to make a pointer of pointer "char **" but i found that i'm unable 
to count the number of elements in this kind of work.

Any help will be appreciated, thanx

[Dev-C++] terminate()

[Charles K. <ch...@ke...>]

Was trying to get pthreads to build under devcpp (4.9.71- gcc3.2).

They make a call to "terminate()", which is not found under devcpp.  Any
thoughts on what include is missing to port this from msvc ?
