Hi again...


[Linker error] undefined reference to `IID_IDirectPlay8Peer'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `CLSID_DirectPlay8Peer'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `CoCreateInstance@20'
[Linker error] undefined reference to
`DXUtil_ConvertWideStringToGeneric(char *, unsigned wchar_t const *, int)'
[Linker error] undefined reference to

any ideas? I know I'm missing some library, but how can I find out which
one?

thanks!!

  Try going under: Tools -> Editor Options. Select the Syntax tab and then
Comments in the listbox. To the right, you should see a Styles groupbox.
Unselect the Italicx checkbox.

  Hope that works for you ;-)

Hello, I am new to the list.  Does anyone know if there is a way to keep 
comments from appearing in italics in your source code?  I'm using the 
'fixedsys' font, and it is very attractive, but comments get mangled when 
they appear in italics.

Hi all!

Hi,

The biggest problem in your sources is that you
try to create all the windows in WinMain.
Besides there were some other errors too.
I have corrected your code so that it compiles and works

Re: [Dev-C++] How to display a text on the fly ?

[Phil <tsy...@ya...>]

Hello Abhijit,

Many thanks for your answer.

>Use the ES_READONLY style flag.

Yep, Well, in fact with the WS_CAPTION, it is OK also
to be "read only", which gives me also a text-bar.
But tnx for the info.

As for the displayed datas, I need them to be
displayed as soon as they are received. So I have to
call SetWindowText() for each received data. Well, I
can save 50% of the calls, the user will hardly see
the difference in getting each info / 0.5 second or 2
infos/second ;o)

Now, using WriteFile() and SetWindowsText(), I have
noticed something strange abt the '\n', which is saved
as "non-displayable" by WriteFile. If I write my file
via WriteFile, then the text file loaded to my text
area (via SetWindowsText) does not include the "CR" as
wanted but a "non-displayable" char. Same behaviour
when I display my buffer directly to the text area via
SetWindowsText().
When I write my text file (same buffer) via the usual
fprintf()/fputs(), then the '\n' is OK and
SetWindowsText displays it the way I want.
I can not find out the good option/flag to get '\n' as
a "good" CR :o(

Well, anyway tnx again for your help, very useful and

At first C++ distinguishes between uppercase and lowcase letters. So

char Test;

and char test;


are different variables.


Secondly, you wrote "count" instead of "cout" many times. Third, you
wrote end1 instead of endl (L).


I am sending you back the fixed (and a bit beautified) version.

Do  you  compile it as a Windows application or a console app? I guess
you  try  to compile it as a console app. Whenever you want to compile
Windows  applications,  you  need  to pass the -mwindows option to the
linker.

Colin Peters, Windows programming tutorial:
"That option links in a set of standard Win32 libraries and also makes
the program a "GUI" program (i.e. a program with windows) instead of a
"console"  program  (i.e. a command-line based program). If you forget
-mwindows..." you will get the error what you mentioned.

In  Dev-cpp  you  need  to change the project to a windows application
project.

I hope I could help. Actually this is my FIRST post to the list, I'm a
newbie.
