[Dev-C++] new mingw - howto ?

[<jar...@ig...>]

Hi,

I've tried (naively) to unpack the recent 
mingw-1.0-20010608.tar.gz
package into the Dev-C++ directory
since I need gcc-2.95.3
Unfortunately, now g++ produces an
error message:  can't exec
C:/DEV-C_~/BIN/cpp0.exe

Even if I copy cpp0.exe  from
lib/gcc-lib/mingw32/2-93-3.4
into Dev-C++/Bin
I get this message.

What's going wrong?

Thanks for any hint,

I remember that when I updated to the newest version of Mingw 2 months
ago I had to unpack only some of the files to make it work. Unpacking
everything didn't work. I can't remember now which files were, sorry.

Did you use the right patch for your OS ?

There is only one (sort of) package for the Win9x family.
I even tried to install only the gcc package (and not the recent
binutils) but I get the same error.
Unfortunately I don't know if g++ or Dev-C++ generates the error
message.

Try this:

gcc-2.95.3-20010613-W95patch.tar.gz

Unzip it into the same foler as mingw-1.0-20010608.tar.gz, overwriting files
already there. Be sure not to use the dev-c++ directory, but use a new
directory (where you only install these 2 zips) - and just alter the pathes.

Hope it works,

Many thanks, this works. gcc-2.95.3-20010613-W95patch.tar.gz is
necessary on my Win-Me system, also.
