[Dev-C++] gotoxy

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

Hello. I am learning to program C an I am a total begginer. My question =
is that when I try to compile this program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

int main()
{
gotoxy( 20, 10 );
printf( "Hello" );
}
The linker gives me this warning:
c:\misdoc~1\c\experi~1\exp5\exp5_fl.o(.text+0x1b):exp5_fl.c:undefined =
reference to 'gotoxy'
And I can't execute the program.
My program is in misdocumentos folder, inside c folder, inside =
experimentos en c, folder, c, experimento 5, folder
 How can I make it function?. I see that many exemples in tutorials use =
the conio library.
Thanks for any suggestion

Oh, I wanna see that ;) Nothing in programming (espec. Under m$ env) is

Re: [Dev-C++] How to include necessary libraries?

[<jd...@da...>]

No !
It's -lmysqlclient and -lzlib ('lib' is subsituted when prefix, not suffix)
The libs must be in Dev lib folder.

[Dev-C++] stack size SP1

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

Well, stack counting code had a bug, i was subtracting sizeof(unsigned
long) from kbytes instead of bytes. Anyway i fixed the bug and tweaked
it a bit, so here it is, SP1 :P . Well i want to be perfect that's why i
post the correct code. Sorry for the much code:
 
 
 
#include <iostream>
 
void stack()
{
  using namespace std;
 
  // Variable is created on the stack permanently and
  // keeps its value between stack() calls (a nightmare
  // for concurrency).
  static unsigned long counter=0;
 
  // sizeof(void *) to remove the size of the pointer the function call
  // occupies itself on the stack
  char buffer[1024-sizeof(void *)];
 
  counter++;
 
  cout<<"Allocated approximately "<<counter;
  cout<<"KB of stack before i die\n";
 
  stack();
}
 
 
 
int main()
{
  stack();
}

I'm talking about Delphi here.
The bugs in Dev-C++ are made by us (well actually by Colin and Mike ;-),
not by Delphi.
We've already fixed a lot of bugs. Beta 3 is going to be rock-solid.

[Dev-C++] The final final stack counting code

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

This is the final stack counting ANSI C++ compliant code with the
maximum precision i can make. Sorry for the many postings:


#include <iostream>

void stack()
{
  using namespace std;

  // Variable is created on the stack permanently and
  // keeps its value between stack() calls (a nightmare
  // for concurrency).
  static unsigned long counter=0;

  // sizeof(void *) to remove the size of the pointer the function call
  // occupies itself on the stack
  char buffer[1024-sizeof(void *)];

  counter++;

  // -sizeof(counter) to remove the size of the static variable
  // counter. -sizeof(void *)  to remove the size of the pointer of
main()
  // in the stack.
  cout<<"Allocated approximately "<<counter-sizeof(counter)-sizeof(void
*);
  cout<<" KB of stack before i die\n";

  stack();
}



int main()
{
  stack();
}

I think not, beecause the current development team would remain the
guiding team with the main boss you (i guess you are the one who
conceived and guides the idea) and you would decide what would go to
production line. Like all Open Source products. Closed development with
a small team, means much pain and much problems to be solved.

I guess there is no need to point out how successfull large team open
source products are. GCC/MINGW, KDE, Linux, X--Windows, ...
The problem you refer would not exist, since a main approval committee
(the current development team) would exist.

I guess you are refering to DELPHI 6 personal edition. Isn't there an
equivallent C++ Builder 6 or 5 edition?



> Delphi and Object Pascal are good, so why use something else?

I hate pascal myself too (except of Kernighan) but my main thought is
that Dev-C++ written inn C/C++ would have the whole community to provide
some code (C or C++, C++ can interoperate with C using the extern "C"
declaration). So imagine all that code everyone would provide even if it
was some small detail/routine or bug fixes. The result would be
tremendous.



> If it ain't broken, don't fix it.

It would be less broken i guess (but still it is a good program).

Probably. Check with the new version of the code that i sent, it should
be more accurate.

I did not understand why gcc would not run.

Then what?

You mean why it compiled? Because GCC permits more things than ANSI C++
(consider of it as system extensions). All compilers permit more stuff,
but for code to be guaranteed to be portable, must be ANSI compliant.

All compilers have a limit of stack. In DOS times it was 64 K. Now in
Windows it is 1-2 MB. With the updated code i sent to the list here is
info for thhe stack on my XP system:


MINGW:

"C:\mingw\bin\g++.exe" -O3 -march=i686 -ansi -pedantic-errors -o temp
"temp.cpp":

Allocated approximately 2002 KB of stack before i die

C:\c>



BC++:

"bcc32" -6 -O2 "temp.cpp"


Allocated approximately 1006 KB of stack before i die

C:\c>


So as you see MINGW/GCC provides one of the largest stack!

No, MINGW produces Win32 applications (even console programs do not run
above pure DOS).

No it isn't. It is a compiler issue.

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

I had written the stack size counting program in asleep mode, that's why
it had logical errors. The correct one:


#include <iostream>

void stack()
{
  using namespace std;

  static unsigned long counter=0;

  char buffer[1024-sizeof(void *)];

  counter++;

  cout<<"Allocated approximately "<<counter;
  cout<<" KB of stack before i die\n";

  stack();
}



int main()
{
  stack();
}

Re: [Dev-C++] Dev-C++ 5 Beta 2 / Win98

[Colin L. <col...@wa...>]

Hello,

This is a common issue. We use Delphi because it is a powerful and very 
productive tool. Dev-C++ 5 won't probably be at this stage of development if 
it was written in C++.
Also, i personnaly prefer to work with a group of 3-5 developers i know, than 
with hundred thousand of people from the net who want to contribute by 
putting a line of code somewhere there, projects can become unstable and a 
real mess with this.

> (also check Kernighan's text "why i do not like pascal").

Delphi has probably nothing to see with the Pascal Kernighan's learnt 30 
years ago ;)

Colin

I hate to to tell you, but it is broke and needs to be fixed. I have =
dev-c++ installed on two differenct computers and the IDE randomly blows =
up either during a compile or a file save. Undoubtedly you have seen my =
thread on file names which is also a problem, or bug if you prefer.=20

HELLOOO!!!
If you are using some wierd old compiler (like renamed borland c/c++
compiler for win3.1 --I don't know how or what--) then you could get
16-bit code. But in reality, Dev-C++ uses MinGW compiler by default,
wich generates native Win32 code.

I don't think that's a good idea.
There's no good free RAD tool for C++ (we don't feel like paying for
Borland C++ Builder or M$VC++).
Delphi and Object Pascal are good, so why use something else?
If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
