Re: [Dev-C++] problem wih a project

[Daniel W. <d_w...@ho...>]

Hello everybody!

HI Patrick, what that weird message means is that you are compiling your =
console project for windows, not as a console project :-?.

Well, it can be the problem: In Options, goto Compiler options, and then =
goto the label linker, there is a checked box at left of "Compile for =
win32 (no console)", well, uncheck it.That can be the problem, i hope it =
fixes.

I suggest you to read the FAQS in the menu HELP, under "Help on =
Dev-C++", cause the problem you suggest is explained there. Well, good =
look!

[Dev-C++] Using make file with dev c++

[Napoleon A. <nah...@so...>]

Hi folks,
I have just downloded the beta version of dev c++ and i must say the new =
look editor is quite pleasing to the eye. To the point now, I am =
learning wxWindows with MingW.=20

For ease of use much more than anything, I use Context editor since it =
allows me to use basically any of the free compilers as well as make.

 Also I find updating the compilers much easier since its just a matter =
of downloading and installing. I however miss Dev C++ and Its ability to =
enable me work project wise.

I will like to know if I can use make to compile wxWindows programs =
instead of its default parameters. Generally can I use make to compile =
in Dev C++.

Thanks.

On the other hand the Vector class (std::vector<type>) is a C++
container class that mimics much of what an array is, and most likely
(although not guaranteed) is internally represented as an array or group
of arrays. On top of that the class supports automatic resizing and
bounds checking and a whole host of other manipulation methods and
algorithmic functions. This extra functionality will incur an extra
overhead on a system, but in modern C++ standard library implementations
this cost will be negligible, and unlikely to be significant. As a C++
coder more often than not you would be recommended to use a vector
although basic arrays will still have their uses occasionally.
 
Maybe this is more information that you wanted to know, but it may be
valuable in future use.
 
Jason. 
 
 
sorrry for sqeezing the mateer so much but... :) a vector doesn't incur
any addtional cost when one knows how to use it. For example:
 
vector<int>array(1000);
 
for(vector<int>::size_type i=0; i<array.size(); i++)
 // some stuff
 
 
Here no range checking occurs, the vector<int>::size() is inlined and
the object clears itself automatically when the end of its scope is
reached or an  exception is thrown ("resource aquisition is
initialization" technique. That's why proper C++ doesn't need garbage
collection). Also the code is bullet proof (the probability of our
mistakes is very low) and we can change the initial size of the array by
changing only the value of the constructor.
 
 
This should not incur more cost than int *array=new int[1000];
 
for(size_t i=0; i<1000; i++)
 // some stuff
 
 
 
 
When we want to avoid the cost of continuous new & delete we define a
large size from the beginning. Also it is guaranteed that subsequent
push_back operations do not incur time cost for every one push_back.
 
In summary if we know what we need and what we are doing everything is
ok. :)

Re: [Dev-C++] Struct tag

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

The struct tag is a remnant of C carried through and extended in C++. =
Structs in C carry data only and don't allow methods and such to added, =
but a struct in C++ is equivalent to a class but with it's member =
automatically declared public by default, whereas in a class the default =
is private.
The only reason I can think of for using it in C++ is if it lends a =
clearer meaning to the code you are writing and the way it is =
represented, and possibly in compatibility with C, i.e. porting old C =
code to C++. Another difference between the C struct and the C++ struct =
is that in C a struct is a tag for a set of data formatted in a specific =
manner, and in C++ a struct represents a type. Mainly meaning that in C =
each declaration of a struct required you to specify that it was a =
struct, i.e.

struct a_structure data; // creates an a_structure struct in data.

In C++ this is still valid but you could also say:

a_structure data; // same

"a_structure" can be any structure previously defined. A work around you =
will see often in things like Win32 API is the use of a typedef for a =
struct, i.e.:

typedef struct tagPOINT { // pt=20
    LONG x;=20
    LONG y;=20
} POINT;

Where POINT is a typedef of the tagPOINT struct, and means you can =
declare a POINT directly.

An array is a primitive data representation used in C and C++ as the =
basic structured container available. An array of 1000 bytes directly =
represents 1000 consecutive memory locations in the underlying system. =
AFAIK the underlying code is supported by direct assembly =
representations of arrays (CISC), but don't quote me on that. One of the =
drawbacks of the basic array is that it has no bounds checking built in =
to it, so you could create an array of 1000 bytes and then go on to =
access 2000 bytes (and most likely crash your system). These errors can =
often be hard to find and require an extra investment in checking of =
bounds in your code.
On the other hand the Vector class (std::vector<type>) is a C++ =
container class that mimics much of what an array is, and most likely =
(although not guaranteed) is internally represented as an array or group =
of arrays. On top of that the class supports automatic resizing and =

this cost will be negligible, and unlikely to be significant. As a C++ =

There are two ways to display the character you want using the ASCII code.
cout << '\xA0'; and cout << char(160); display the same thing, 'á'.
cout << '\x9A'; and cout << char(154); display 'Ü', and so on.
just use '\x<hexidecimal code number>' or char(<decimal code number>) to 
display a special character.  If you want to store a string of characters, i 
would guess you need to do it character by character in a string.

If they are stored in extended ASCII mode then you will use unsigned
char type and print character by character as an unisgned char. If
French are not in extended ASCII you will use wchar_t type. wchar_t is
defined in stdef.h .

A normal string can be treated as a wchar_t type in the style:

L"This is a wide character string".=20


But usually the western languages fit in the extended ASCII.

[Dev-C++] re: French diacritical marks

[Keith A. <ka...@co...>]

Hi,

    My first posting to a list I've been "lurking" on for a while, and =
am enjoying very much.

    Not positive how to print out a single character in C++, using its =
ASCII code, but I'm pretty sure this is what you want (like the CHR$ =
function in BASIC). I can't supply the correct C++ usage (it's probably =
something disgustingly simple), but here are the characters and their =
corresponding decimal and ASCII codes. For example, I inserted them in =
this e-mail using the Alt key while punching in the decimal code on the =
number pad.

=E9 =3D 130 dec. (82 Hexadecimal )
=E0 =3D 133 dec. (85H)
=E8 =3D 138 dec. (8AH)
=E1 =3D 160 dec. (A0H)
=E7 =3D 135 dec. (87H)
=EA =3D 136 dec. (88H)
=C9 =3D 144 dec. (90H)
=EE =3D 140 dec. (8CH)
=EB =3D 137 dec. (89H)
=E2 =3D 131 dec. (83H)
=F4 =3D 147 dec. (93H)
=FB =3D 150 dec. (96H)
=ED =3D 161 dec. (A1H)
=F3 =3D 162 dec. (A2H)

Here are some others (not necessarily French):

=FC =3D 129 dec. 81H
=E4 =3D 132 dec. 84H
=E5 =3D 134 dec. 86H
=EF =3D 139 dec. 8BH
=EC =3D 141 dec. 8DH
=F6 =3D 148 dec. 94H
=DC =3D 154 dec. 9AH
=A3 =3D 156 dec. 9CH
=A5 =3D 157 dec. 9DH
=BD =3D 171 dec. ABH
=BC =3D 172 dec. ACH

    Hope this helps!

Re: [Dev-C++] Usability of vfw.h?

[Yeoh H. <ye...@ya...>]

Hello,

Sometime ago, I was working on a video capture application based on a =
sample application in the MSDN CD. The sample compiles and links without =
any problems with Visual C++.

In addition to vfw.h, other relevant header files are: mmreg.h and =
mmsystem.h.=20

The required libs are:
msacm32.lib vfw32.lib winmm.lib shell32.lib

I haven't ported it to Dev-C++ though.

Regards,
Yeoh

  Hello,

  Within the Mingw library, I do not seem to be able to find the header =
file vfw.h. Does anyone know where I can obtain it? In addition, even if =
I do manage to get a hold of it, would Dev C++ be able to compile =
projects using the header file? Any suggestions would be appreciated, =
thanks.

Has anyone tried cin as opposed to getch() and getche()?

Re: [Dev-C++] Turbo C++ - what is it?

[<Dan...@ao...>]

I saw a book on it, heard a bit about it, but what IS Turbo C++ ? How is it 
different to C++?

Turbo C++ was Borland's first version of C++ it was an expansion of Turbo C.
Later Borland started calling it Borland C++ which is now up to version 6.

If you're interested you can download this program from Borland's home page 
at WWW.borland.com/museum. 

Keep in mind that any output generated by Turbo C++ will be in an eight (8) 
bit DOS and when using graphics could cause problems in any version of 
Windows 95 or Higher.

Good Luck,
Danny

PS,
10 years ago I started using Turbo C and when Turbo C++ was released I 
switched to that with a better understanding of Object Oriented Programming 
(OOP).

Re: [Dev-C++] Re: getch(), getche()

[Brian M. <str...@ho...>]

I have tried Ioannis's code and it works just fine.

This is the exact code I have in my source file, and it works:

#include <conio.h>
#include <iostream>

void main() {
    std::cout << "Enter any key.";
    getch();
}

It does not wait for a RETURN to capture a single keystroke.  Like Ioannis 
pointed out at the end of his email, you might need a specific version of 
the MingW compiler (you'd have to check his email again if you haven't 
already deleted it, because i deleted it and i can't remember).  The 
compiler i use works with it just fine.  I use Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0 
(yeah, yeah, i know, traitor to the cause...) and getch() works when used 
this way.
