RE: Re[2]: [Dev-C++] Controlling Process Priority

[Scott W. <se...@al...>]

Thanks.  Don't I feel silly--didn't think about checking the DevPacks.  I've
glanced over the list on vUpdate from time to time but none seemed to apply
to good ole basic number crunching type programming so I hadn't paid much
heed.  Forgot that Win API was on the list.

Hello Scott,

If  you use the Tools - Check for Update/Packages, in Dev-Cpp.

Press  Start  for vUpdate to check what's new. You will now get a list
of all new modules and among them you will find help files for Dev-Cpp
and  a  Win32  API  reference.  Select  these,  and press Download. If
everything  works  then  the  Package  Manager will start. You can now
install  the  Win32  API  reference (or maybe it will be automatically
installed, can't remember).

To Install a downloaded package you select Install ;-)
You will now be asked for a package. The downloaded Pagages are in the
Dev-Cpp\DevPaks  directory.  Select the Win32API.DevPak and Press Open
and go through the installation wizard. When the installation finishes
you will have a new submenu under Help - Win32.hlp

The  SetPriorityClass  is in winbase.h/kernel32.lib so you need to add
these to your project.

The  vUpdate  server  seems  to be down at the moment, or maybe I have
some error in my Internet connection ....
