[Dev-C++] menus

[Site R. <sit...@fl...>]

hi,

  I know I don't post here very much, but I'm having some problems now =
with my code, and so I thought I'd post.


I made this menu class to make it a little easier to make menus =
manually, without a resource. When I use a different compiler to compile =
my program, the menus seem to come up fine. But when I use Dev C++ (well =
I guess MinGW actually is the compiler), the submenus are there, but =
when you click them they do not show the items under them. I am not =
quite sure why. I am using MENUITEMINFO structures, and the =
InsertMenuItem function. The only possible thing I could think of, and =
I'm not sure if this is the case or not, is that possibly I have to =
specify the items under the submenu before attaching the submenu to the =
main menu? Could this be the reason?

One more question, not related to menus. Why does it seem that my =
program is so large when compiled under MinGW? I mean, it is 20 times =
larger than when compiled under borland's compiler. This isn't to be =
taken offense to, just wanted to know. And, is there any way at all to =
optimize this a little to make it smaller?

Thanks a lot for any help!
