Re: [Dev-C++] Q: Compiled program says it needs dinput.dll

[Ray & D. S. <sm...@ma...>]

Hi,

I'm no expert but I beleive dinput.dll contains the DirectInput routines for
DirectX.
Do the other computers have DirectX???

Re: [Dev-C++] Q: Compiled program says it needs dinput.dll

[Clayton W. <vgd...@ho...>]

The problem might be that you are calling something in your source that you 
shouldn't be because I have no problem making programs with my Dev-C++ 
version 4, but I do have trouble compiling the Allegro Library.

If you want I'll try to compile it on my Dev-C++ and see if I get the same 
thing when I compile. Just send the source to my actual email instead of 
through the mailing list (that way we don't get in trouble in case its too 
big). I'll take a crack at the code and see if it compiles for me or not:). 
Just copy and paste it and send it to vgd...@ho... with the 
subject line of "Program Code".

[Dev-C++] Q: Compiled program says it needs dinput.dll

[jansb000 <jan...@wx...>]

I compiled a program with DEVCPP.
The executable (on other machines than mine) says it needs a file called
"dinput.dll".
What is this file and where can I find it?

Is there a function similar to the clrscr() in Turbo C++ ?
In Linux GCC compiler uses the NCURSES library, and in Windows console apps=

RE: [Dev-C++] getch

[Ramana K. <ra...@my...>]

I don't really know, but is probably to do with which files you include. How
do you include files? With the .h or a c- prefix? Do you use namespaces?
This is just things think may be related to your problem, I'm not too sure
on the specifics of such stuff.

Subject: [Dev-C++] (no subject)


I made a simple program to test the compiling and run options in the Dev-C++
program. The program I wrote was just a simple one that told the computer to
output the string "hello world" to the screen when you ran the program. That
is where the problem is though. I have Windows 98 and I have the DJGPP
compiler with Rhide interface and the MinGW compiler and I just recently
downloaded the Dev-C++ software and I like it, but I'm having trouble with
it. Let me start from the beginning. The simple program I wrote had this as
the source code:

   #include <iostream.h>

   int main()
   {
      cout<<"hello world";
      return0;
   }

I compiled the program without any problems, but when I run it or try to
click on the .exe file in the c:\ drive it pops up the program real quick
and closes it back out instead of keeping it up until I click the exit
button at the top of the window. Why does it do this and how can I make it
stop? My DJGPP with Rhide interface lets the identical program I wrote in it
stay open until I click the x on the screen to close it, but Dev-C++ opens
the program and closes it write back(the program was written in Dev-C++).
Thanks for any and all help that you can offer me:).

Re: [Dev-C++] (no subject)

[Vassili <v.v...@bt...>]

You can execute you program via DOS prompt or by inserting something like
system("PAUSE") or getchar() before the return.

Anyway, straying from the point.
DOS actually helps out on performing some things, if I remember right, the
getchar() function would cause a program to echo what is written. When a
letter is typed, dos would print (echo) it and when return is pressed, the
program executes, printing the stored data. This is why conio.h was created,
I suppose, to bypass this help, getch() executes once the key is pressed.
I'm not to sure how accurate my memory is, I read this a while back.

you should add something like an input commang (getc) or what to

[Dev-C++] (no subject)

[Clayton W. <vgd...@ho...>]

I made a simple program to test the compiling and run options in the Dev-C++
program. The program I wrote was just a simple one that told the computer to
output the string "hello world" to the screen when you ran the program. That
is where the problem is though. I have Windows 98 and I have the DJGPP
compiler with Rhide interface and the MinGW compiler and I just recently
downloaded the Dev-C++ software and I like it, but I'm having trouble with
it. Let me start from the beginning. The simple program I wrote had this as
the source code:

   #include <iostream.h>

   int main()
   {
      cout<<"hello world";
      return0;
   }

I compiled the program without any problems, but when I run it or try to
click on the .exe file in the c:\ drive it pops up the program real quick
and closes it back out instead of keeping it up until I click the exit
button at the top of the window. Why does it do this and how can I make it
stop? My DJGPP with Rhide interface lets the identical program I wrote in it
stay open until I click the x on the screen to close it, but Dev-C++ opens
the program and closes it write back(the program was written in Dev-C++).
Thanks for any and all help that you can offer me:).

Re: [Dev-C++] Please help me...why doesn't the code compile?

[Luigi S. <gi...@li...>]

At 23.56 10/08/01 +0000, you wrote:

Hello Jose!

I tried your code (after storing it in 3 different files) with Dev C++. I 
made a project and asked the IDE to compile it: everything seemed fine (no 
compilation errors), but when I tried to execute it ... I had troubles! :-)

Unlike me, you had some compilation error, I guess it is because you turned 
on some extra warnings, while I used only the "plain" Dev C++ options.

When I tried to compile your program from the command line (see the file 
main.mk) I got these kind of errors:
- main should return an integer
- you are passing a "const char *" where a "char *" is expected

Maybe the second kind of error needs some comment.
Your prototype says: "extern char* LCase(char *str);" (by the way the 
"extern" is not necessary), so a "char *" is expected. In your test 
program, when you call the function by the line: "LCase("This is a test of 
LCase\n");", you are handing it a "const char *" (a "string constant" to be 
more specific). Usually compilers store string constants in a sort of read 
only memory, so when you attempt to modify them you'll get (at least) a run 
time error.

I suggest that you modify main.cpp in this way:
- build a "char *" using a constant string, and use hand it to your functions

I've changed your main.cpp according to the above, I also used "C style 
strings". Since you are using C++ I suggest you use "C++ style strings" 
(see your documentation on the standard library).


Hope this helps.

[Dev-C++] Help with DLL entry point

[Butler J. <dub...@ya...>]

I can make a C EXE, but I have no clue how to make a
DLL for use in VB, because it needs an entry point.  I
have no clue where to put anything, I can't find any
help on bloodshed.net or its linked pages, and the
comments with the wizard-generated project are as
unhelpful as ever, and VB says it can't find the "DLL
entry point" when I declare the function even with a
compiled DLL of the project DEV generates.  Is it
possible any of you can help me?  Thanks.

Re: [Dev-C++] Please help me...why doesn't the code compile?

[Vassili <v.v...@bt...>]

If your going to use pointers and arrays, always have an address to store
data, ditto for char, int, float,...,etc.

try using something like:-

#include <iostream.h>
#include "module1.h"

void main()
{
   // Initialised plus somewhere to store data
   char str1[] = "This is a test of UCase";
   char str2[] = "This is a test of LCase";

   // Pass the address of strings and display the
   // modified data, which is the returned address
   cout << "This is a test\n"
          << UCase(str1) << endl
          << LCase(str2) << endl;
}
