Re: [Dev-C++] Fw: [WCS] Problem devcpp / allegro - conflicting headers

[jansb000 <jan...@pl...>]

We want to do exactly the opposite. We want to write code that compiles
out-of-the-box with DEVCPP and DJGPP. We only want to use allegro functions
and not something from Win32 specific. After all that was the reason for our
project to choose a multi-platform library like allegro.

It appears that when we include <iostream> we automatically get a number of
Windows specifc headers (like wingdi.h). Unfortunately allegro and wingdi
both use a BITMAP structure so we cant compile our sourcecode as long as it
includes <iostream>.

When we use the DEVPAK for Allegro 4.1.14, what type of project do we have
to choose to get an allegro-only project. I remember that in the past with
DEVCPP 4.02 and an old Allegro DEVPAK I had to select a console application,
but with the new versions of DEVCPP and allegro that options doesn't exsist
anymore.
