[Dev-C++] Questions I should have asked

[Alf C S. <al...@st...>]

Some questions I should have asked before starting my current project.

Is anyone on either of these lists using gtk+ to develop applications to run
on Microsoft Windows? In C ?
If yes are you using Dev-C++?
If no what are you using?

Yes. And I also have installed all the MinGW toys (MinGW, MSYS, MSYS 
Developer Tool Kit, MinGW utils, binutils, gdb, etc).



PS1: By the way, you guys were discussing a while ago about the flags to 
use in GTK+ apps... why don't just use `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags` in 
the compiler flags and `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs` in the linker flags, 
as it says in the docs? (and obviously the -mms-bitfields and 
-mno-cygwin options) Of course, considering you have pkg-config.

PS2: by the way, Tor, is it really needed to use -mno-cygwin (as you 
always tell everybody) when compiling with MinGW? Isn't it the default 
for MinGW?

`pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs` is nice if you have a shell that may expand
the command.

For normal windows use, you have to hard-code the parameters on the
command line. If pkg-config itself is runnable, it is possible to run it
and use the printed output as parameters.

Fortunately, GNU Make expands the command exactly like a shell. :)

Thank you all.
I have added `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags` to compile options and now gcc tells
me "cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilation" and yes I have 4
different .c source files in my project.
Do I need to put these source files together into one file?

You could check the wxWidget lib, it has an ODBC class for accessing
Access and other dbs.

For more information have a look at http://www.wxwidgets.org/

Hello,

I have an example C++ program that does this. It was written using 
Dev-C++, NoDSNCpp-V1.0.zip: ODBC DSNless connection in C++.

The download URL is:

Sure.

I use Emacs as an editor.
The binaries for Win32 version of Silky are built on Linux using MinGW
(a cross compilation toolchain).
