[Dev-C++] New to C, New to dev cpp, New to the list

[andre <bo...@wa...>]

Hi everybody,

I can say "still new in englisg too".

Trying my first and shorter program in C, "hello world", by cutting and 
pasting the source below in dev cpp manual,

#include <stdio.h>

main()

{
   printf("hello world, i'm not the best, yet");

}

i receive the following error, pasted from the compiler's message window 
down devcpp main window.

line   File     Message
2     C:\devc\2 unable to run program file.

I downloaded mingw and msys
I compiled my source without errors but when i try to "make" it, i have 
  the errors below :
myfile.o:1: warning: NUL character seen; rest of line ignored
myfile.o:1: *** missing separator.  Stop.

I'm running dev-c++ 4.9.8.0
Windows XP Pro SP1a

TIA,

André

Thanks for your quick answer.

I'll follow your advice and look for a book.

I tried what you suggested, startng a new C++ project, and i got the 
same error, line 2, Unable to run program file.

Here is the compilation log :

Compilateur: Default compiler
Building Makefile: "C:\devc\Makefile.win"
Exécution de  make...
make.exe -f "C:\devc\Makefile.win" all
Exécution terminée
Compilateur: Default compiler
Building Makefile: "C:\devc\Makefile.win"
Exécution de  make clean
Exécution terminée.

Thanks,
André

Try this :

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  printf("hello world, i'm not the best, yet\n");
  system("PAUSE");=09

Very strange, I would try reisntalling Dev-C++. Also, try making an 
executable versus a makefile.

Re: [Dev-C++] New to C, New to dev cpp, New to the list

[andre <bo...@wa...>]

My first idea was that the compiler was not installed with devcpp but 
after having read the manual, the web site, i always saw that mingw was 
the default compiler and included in devcpp.

Alas, NO !

I just read the announcement of devcpp 4.9.8.7 and i noticed that i had 
the ide's executables only. Arrrgghhhhhh.

maybe i'm not used to read devcpp website, yet. ;:).

I'm downloading the full version and the update and we'll see.

Coming back.

André.

Re: [Dev-C++] New to C, New to dev cpp, New to the list

[andre <bo...@wa...>]

I uninstalled devc++, i re-downloaded 4.9.8.0, i updated it with 
4.9.8.7, and i have the same problem, the same message, with devc++ 
examples.

It's a fresh install, out-of-the-box.

Is there something special to do ?

TIA

André

I've never had to do anything special to get it to run properly.

I've been having e-mail issues so I haven't been following this 
closely.  I'm probably going to ask you the same questions that other 
people have asked.

1.  You let it install into the directory it wanted to?
2.  When you re-installed, you're sure you deleted the hidden files?
3.  There are no spaces in any of your directory names?
4.  You did the full download that gets the compiler along with the 
IDE instead of just the IDE?

From what I saw of the thread, your original e-mail showed an error 
in a .o program but the new errors are showing problems even making 
anything.  How did you build the .o program without using make?  Or 
did you?

I tried that with mingw iwth the same file but i supposed the error 
message is linked to my power skills in that matter.

If you have an explanation i'll be happy.

Snipped from http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2256328

"
(3) Find and remove devcpp.ini and devcpp.cfg. In Windows 9x this is easy,
they are in the Dev directory. For the other Windows - 2000, XP, NT - it is
a little harder, as they are placed in a directory that Windows calls
hidden. On this computer, the are in:

c:\documents and settings\username\local settings\application data

You can find them with Windows search, if you remember to click the box that
says look in hidden folders. It is VITAL that these files be removed, as
they contain information about your current install. If this information is
still there when you re-install, it can foul things up again. Please, if you
have XP, 2000 etc., the files ARE there. Do not answer that the files were
not on my machine.

That's not enough.

There are two hidden config files put in your local user account that 
you've got to remove.

Go to https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2256328 and 
read the part on how to do re-installs.

Except that it was supposed to go to the mailing list! I wish they could fix
that "Reply-To" field in the mail header! gaaaaah

Anyway... here it is for anyone else that got a similar problem:

Snipped from http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2256328

"
(3) Find and remove devcpp.ini and devcpp.cfg. In Windows 9x this is easy,
they are in the Dev directory. For the other Windows - 2000, XP, NT - it is
a little harder, as they are placed in a directory that Windows calls
hidden. On this computer, the are in:

c:\documents and settings\username\local settings\application data

You can find them with Windows search, if you remember to click the box that
says look in hidden folders. It is VITAL that these files be removed, as
they contain information about your current install. If this information is
still there when you re-install, it can foul things up again. Please, if you
have XP, 2000 etc., the files ARE there. Do not answer that the files were
not on my machine.

Cool.  I hadn't read Mats' e-mail before I read yours.  :)

And I'm sorry if I sent that e-mail to you instead of the group.  
This e-mail client sometimes sends to the person instead of the list 
and sometimes I forget to check which way it's set.

I think it's the mailing list script that needs some working on. The mails
are missing the "Reply-To" field in the mail headers. It should say
dev...@li... there. Right now it replies to whoever is
on the "From" field. Very irritating on a mailing list.

Actually, if you're wanting this to be C, then it should be rewritten 
like so:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
   printf("yadda yadda yadda\n");
   system("pause");
   return 0;
}

The mixture of C (stdlib.h) and C++ (iostream and namespaces) is not 
a good thing.

If you want this to be C++, then it should be:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>

using namespace std;
// or more appropriately using std::<whatever you're using>

int main()
{
   cout << "yadda yadda yadda" << endl;
   system("pause");
   return 0;
}

HTH.
