[Dev-C++] vUpdate broken in exe-only install

[<ru...@wp...>]

I recently tried to switch to the "official" MinGW/MSYS, so I:

 - uninstalled Dev-C++
 - deleted everything (except my current works) from Dev-Cpp dir
 - installed MingW
 - installed MSYS
 - compiled wxWindows with MSYS to check if everything works :-)

Now vUpdate complains (not allowing to copy and paste the error message,
so retyping here, AAARGHH!):

* Error: Your devcpp.cfg file is missing
         the $INCLUDE field in its
         [VUPDATE] section...

Well, the devcpp.cfg file is *missing* in the first place. I deleted it
when uninstalling the compiler-equipped version, and the installer of
the exe-only version didn't recreate it. Too bad. I can't autoupdate.
Please help ASAP.

Best regards,
Szczepan Holyszewski

You need MSYS to install wxWindows?

You can compile wxwindows with dev-c++ (import visual c++ project)
use mingw provided with dev-c++ from the command line

finaly you can use my devpack

 (look previous e-mails)

bye

[Dev-C++] Edit control problem (WIN32)

[<mr...@c2...>]

Hi,

I am facing a strange problem with an edit control that I use
as a status window.

The control is created with this call to CreateWindow:

(line breaks may be garbled by the mailer..)

CreateWindow("edit", "",
WS_CHILD | WS_DLGFRAME | WS_VISIBLE | WS_VSCROLL | ES_MULTILINE | 
ES_READONLY, 10, 25, 470, 160, hwnd,
(HMENU) ID_STATUS, hProgInst, NULL);


I catch the WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message like this:

case WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC:
{
	if(GetDlgCtrlID((HWND)lParam) =3D=3D ID_STATUS)
    {
    	SetBkMode((HDC)wParam, TRANSPARENT);
       SetTextColor((HDC)wParam, RGB(50, 50, 150));
       return (LRESULT)GetStockObject(LTGRAY_BRUSH);
    }
}break;

This gives me blue text on a lightgray background in the control.

Now comes the problem: If the text in the edit control is large 
enough that the user needs to move the scrollbar to see the text, the 
text becomes garbled, ie the edit control does not repaint it's 
window correctly.

If, however, I don't change the color of the control (by not catching 
the WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC message), everything is fine, and the control 
repaints just fine when scrolling.

What am I missing here?
