Re: [Dev-C++] how to do file and streams

[Daniel G. <sp...@ho...>]

I think if you include ostream.h and create an object of the ostream class, 
then use the .open command you should be ok.

ofstream ofstreamObject;   // For managing the text file
ofstreamObject.open( "File1.txt"); // Create and name our text file
ofstreamObject.close();

No, in case of failure new throws by default an std::bad_alloc exception
defined in <new>. It doesn't return 0.

RE: [DEV-C++] BUG: Dev-C 4.9.20 consolprogram has only access to 1MB memory.

[Ioannis V. <no...@ho...>]

Yes, you can access the rest of memory as "free store". Stack is used to
store the execution path of a program and local objects.

Example. Imagine that you have the code:

void k()
{
 int x=1;
 f();
 int y=g(x);
 f();
}

int main()
{
 int a=5;
 f();
 int r=g(a);
 k();
}


In the stack the following is stored:

a=5;
pointer to f() call. -> // f() things executed here. When it finishes: |
<-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
int r;
pointer to g() call--> // g() things executed here. When it finishes: |
<-----------------------------------------------------------------------
--------
r=some_value
pointer to k() call --> 
                              int x=1;
                              pointer to f() call ---> //finishes |
                              <-------------------------------------
                              int y;
                              pointer to g() call---> // finishes|
                              <--------------------------------------
                              y=some_value
                              pointer to f() call ---> //finishes |
                              <-------------------------------------
                              k() finishes. Automatic local objects in
the stack die |
<-----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------

main() ends. 
Automatic local objects in the stack die
return success indicator


I hope it gives some idea.

[staale <st...@le...>]

Well, I'll hold my horses a bit longer before I cry wolf, wolf the next
time.:o)

As Ioannis has pointed out the different results are differences in the
implementation of the mingw32 compiler. Evolving from allowing ca 31MB stack
space to ca 2MB. Probably to prevent us from cheating?

The following code shows that you have access to all the memory your OS will
give you *S*.

[Dev-C++] Interesting link

[Ioannis V. <no...@ho...>]

I was looking to some pages regarding Kernighan, Ritchie, Thompson, Unix
& stuff and i came across some interesting link of a guy that was
working at Bell Labos those times (great mind) with info i think is
interesting. It is not C or C++ but i think it is useful. :)

[Dev-C++] how to do file and streams

[chromatonus 7. <chr...@ho...>]

hi, here is my program that is supposed to do the following:

Enter a series of records from the keyboard, each record consisting of a 
two-word name and an integer,
example MEG RAM 23, as one entry
The program will keep a count of the number of entries. After the last one 
is entered, enter a "sentinel" code, some string that will indicate that the 
data has been completely entered.
Then the data will be saved to a file in the format of
#data  name  #  name  #.......
Then the data will be read from the file and displayed on the screen, one 
entry per line.

#include "apstring.h"
#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream.h>
#include <conio.h>

int main()
{
   apstring name1, name2, x, check;
   ifstream infile;
   infile.open("stuff.dat");
   int n;
   cin.ignore(80,'\n');
   getline(cin,x);
   check = "end";
   while(x!=check)
   {
      infile >> name1 >> name2 >> n >> "\n";
      cin.ignore(80,'\n');
      getline(cin, x);
   }
   infile.close();
   getch();

   ofstream xfile;
   xfile.open("stuff.dat");
   getch();
   xfile.close();
}

I don't know how to do the ofstream part, and I don't know whether I 
actually saved the data in a file, and how to access the file and display 
it? Would you please tell me how to do that, thank you!

RE: [Dev-C++] full template support?

[Ioannis V. <no...@ho...>]

As we go in the past, we will find less template support and ANSI C++
compliance (the standard is very recent). The template support of GCC
2.9.x is in high degree (higher than VC++ 7 .NET). Naturally in 3.x
things are even better. I have read somewhere in MINGW site that till
GCC 3.x stabilizes, we will work with the 2.9.x releases (mainly bug
fixes). The only thing i have discovered so far personally to be not
supported in MINGW is vector::at() member function, which i do not use
too much anyway since it implies some time cost.
[For informationan purposes at() is range checked member access, that is
it throws an exception if the range is wrong but i do not need it since
i use the [] in combination with .size(): array[i]<array.size()  ).

GCC in general is very high in standards conformance and quality.

Hi all!

Where can I find a list of the keyboard-keys?
I've been using keys like VK_UP and VK_DOWN etc... but what about ALT,

well say you had a case statement to handle windows messages.

case WM_CHAR:
{
   // get ascii code
   int ascii_code = (int)wparam;
   int key_bits = (int)lparam;
   // do whatever
   // tell windows you processed the message
   return 0;
}
break;

case WM_KEYDOWN:
{
   // get virtual keycode and data bits
   int virtual_code = (int)wparam;
   int key_bits     = (int)lparam;
   switch(virtual_code)
   {
      case VK_RIGHT:{} break;
      case VK_LEFT: {} break;
      // etc...
      default: break;
   }
   // tell windows message was handled
   return 0;
} break;

Does this help?

[Dev-C++] Icons

OK Colin, here are some icons for Dev-C++.

Here are a few

Keyboard
VK_BACK  // backspace
VK_TAB
VK_RETURN
VK_SHIFT
VK_CONTROL
VK_PAUSE
VK_SPACE
VK_PRIOR   // page up key
VK_NEXT    // page down
VK_ESCAPE

etc.  nothing about ALT on my list (windows game programming for dummies)



WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK
WM_LBUTTONDOWN
WM_LBUTTONUP
WM_MBUTTONDBLCLK   // middle button
WM_MBUTTONDOWN
WM_RBUTTONUP   // etc. etc.

Set if...
MK_LBUTTON   // Set if the left button is down
MK_CONTROL   // Set if control is down

No, you can give your program whatever license you want.
Executables produced by GCC *are not* covered under the GPL.

[Dev-C++] more gotoxy

[Francisco S. <sa...@te...>]

Thanks for the interest. I will take a look to an ANSI C tutorial. By =
the way, I tried with #include <conio_mingw.h> but the compiler =
complaints that there is no such file or directory. The same happened =
when somebody recomended me to include <conio.c> instead of <conio.h>. =
But it doesn't matter, for the moment I have plenty to study without =
this library.

RE: [Dev-C++] gotoxy

[Ioannis V. <no...@ho...>]

It means you did not #include the correct header file for gotoxy. Also i
think MINGW doesn't provide gotoxy() at all. gotoxy() does not belong to
the ANSI C standard and since you are a newcomer better learn ANSI C
first.
