If you have so many problems, consider not using the IDE at all, the 
compiler can be used from the command line.

Try writing NULL in all caps. AFAIK most definitions of NULL are done
all in upper case letters. If I remember correctly NULL is normally
defined thus: 
 
 
NULL definition is always in capital letters.
 
#define NULL (void*) 0; 
 
 
It depends on the language. For C it is usually the above (without the
';'). For C++ the best definition of NULL is
 
#define NULL 0 
 

Or better: const int NULL=0;

the help file isn't complete mainly because there is no volunteer for

Subject: [Dev-C++] Bloodshed or dev-c++ question



Today I spend another marathon session trying to figure out why I could
not get any console output from a program. I could go to a DOS window
and type "newarray > test.txt" and the file created was exactly what I
expected the console output to be. If I brought up the windows "close
program" window by doing the Ctrl-Alt-Del trick, it would show that the
program was still running, but the DOS window had returned to the
command prompt. 
 
 

newarrray > test.txt means output redirection. You redirect the output
to the file instead of the console.

 
 
This is the second time something like this has happened. In both cases,
I had accidentally had selected a windows application in the new project
window and then deleted the default "Untitled1.cpp" it created. That
fill was filled with windows specific code. When I deleted that file, I
thought I had fixed the problem, but I had not. I finally discovered
that the code I had written was fine when I copied it to a different
name and compiled it on a different compiler. I deleted the project,
rsrc.o, and rsrc.rc files and returned to the dev-c++ environment. I
created a new console project, compiled the code and it ran perfectly.
Since this was the second time, you would think I would not have wasted
a half a day solving it. The problem is insidious because it is hard, at
least for me, to detect. 
 
My request for assistance is this:
 

1.	Is there an easier way to solve the problem other than deleting
the files and starting over? In other words, is there a file I can check
for a flag, etc? 

2.	Is there something that is easily identifiable that the
Bloodshed IDE that would be an obvious clue that this is the problem? 

 
For simple console programs do not use projects. But if you wish to use
projects anyway, create a new console project and add your files there.

I know I tried version 4.9.2.0 and had similar problems so I went back to 
version 4.1.

Remember version 4.9.2.0 is a beta release meaning there's going to be 
problems and the team responsible for making this new version needs feedback 
of this source so they'll know what to correct before releasing version 5.

Do you may want to log your problems with them from the site you downloaded 
version 4.9.2.0

The first question that comes to mind is what Operating System are you using? 

The Second question is if you're using Windows 2000, or Windows NT are you 
using Fat32 ? If not you may want to change that by reinstalling Windows

Typos.  I saw two places where you typed in "Item" as "item" and I'm guessing that's your problem as in C++ everything is case-sensitive.

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

Hi !!!

Here is a new release of Dev-C++ 5 beta :)
it should be really more stable and usable than 4.9.1.0, and includes two 
major features :
Class Browser and Code Completion !

Hope you'll enjoy it :)
Btw, there is still bugs, please report them on the bug tracker on 
sourceforge : https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=10639&atid=110639

Greetings !
Colin
