There are trial versions of Borland C++ Builder, but that means you have
to be fast in development. :)

That you wrote:

Obj.SetErrorLog( &Obj ) 


should work (you ommitted a ;).

You should rather ask: "So, is anyone willing to rewrite it in C++?"

Guys, guys, you are forgetting one important thing:

How in the world am I supposed to get a free copy of Borland C++ 
Builder? (Dev-C++ is for Win32 remember?)
I lost contact with my national warez dealer a year ago so warez isn't 
an option :-)

I still don't get it... won't this do?

void Exception::SetErrorLog()
{
    ofstream f("log.txt");
    f << text_string << endl;
    f << "Error-code " << err_code << endl;
}

Ah, but Obj has two data members, which are a text string (which details the 
precise error) and an integer (which is the error code). SetErrorLog() 
outputs this information to a text file.

I suppose one way would be to make a copy of Obj (Obj2) and then pass obj
so
Obj2.SetErrorLog( Obj );

Unfortunately, I thought that, like I was saying a few minutes ago to Yeoh.

All is running OK now. Thanks all mates.

Maybe you should check http://wxworkshop.sourceforge.net and join in.=20
It's supposed to be for MS-Windows and Linux.

Excellent !

It works OK now !

I guessed it was something like that, but examining the makefile created by 
DevCPP, I just thought reading the "-L" option that the linker was scanning 
all the libs in the lib directory to match the code calls. Stupid thought, 
yes I must admit now...

Kind regards

It seems it should work (though I haven't tried it)... though it beats me
why you should pass in an exception object to an exception method... it
defeats the purpose of OOP, that of every object being self-contained. It
should, I feel, be

Exception::SetErrorLog();

Try adding '-lws2_32' to 'Project Options' > 'Linker Options'. This causes
it to link in the WinSock2 library.

Many people seem to be having this problem with libraries so a small
explanation follows:

Just like when you declare a function, you define it at a later point, the
same has to be done for standard library functions (like connect() for
winsock). The header files you include (in this case 'winsock2.h') only
contain the declarations of the functions, not the definitions. The
definitions are contained in separate source files (.cpp) which are compiled
into library files... here, all winsock source files are compiled into
object files (.o) and bundled into 'libws2_32.a', so you need to link it in
to actually use them.

I hope I was clear.

Subject: [Dev-C++] Problems with "winsock2.h"


Anyone could explain me why for every function included in "winsock2.h"
compiler says "[Linker error] undefined reference to 'FUNCTION_NAME @ INT'"
(for example, for the function "connect" the message is
"[Linker error] undefined reference to `connect @ 12'").
How can i solve this problem?

Thanks, Max

If a library is present in the 'lib' directory, it doesn't neccessarily
meant that it's linked in. To specify that you want to add, say libfoo.a to
the project, in 'Project options' > 'Linker Options', type in '-lfoo'. So
here, you'd specify '-lcomctl32'. Hope this helps.

Hi there

Just downloaded the ToolTipCtrl C++ class from codebytes to get some "bubble
help" on my App.

It needs commctrl.h and _WIN32_IE defined on a higher value of 0x300. All is
OK by this side

But then, there is a linker error saying that it is impossible to link the
definition of InitCommonControlsEx() function to any piece of object code.
Did I miss something ? Isn't it included in libcommctl32.a, in the lib
directory ?

Kind regards

Yes, all here are C++ programmers, but only a fraction of us know Delphi.
Once the port is complete, I guess the Delphi version can be abandoned and
the C++ version continued:

1. It's an IDE for C++. I was really surprised when I found out that Dev-C++
is coded in Delphi, I'm sure you were too :)
2. It can be ported to other platforms
3. It'll be cleaner... more people can read the code and actually understand
and modify it
4. Support for other compilers? (BCC32 comes to mind)

So, is anyone willing to port to C++?

Unfortunately, yes :o(

Sorry for pointing out a link that I've not checked since some time ago..=
.
But the message dates July 9th 2002, not so long ago...

Anyway, there's been a lot of time since I don't need to use assembler...=

Hi,

The file name is libcomctl32.a.

In Project Options, have you included this?
-lcomctl32

I took him to mean "speed of development" as in it not being a protracted
development experiment due to the number of people who might be able to
contribute. Development of an IDE in C++ may actually be a pretty good
project for students and enthusiasts of the language, and some might really
enjoy using and IDE they helped create in some way. So there could be some
benefit at least with regard to enjoyment of the project.

I doubt my C++ skills are adequately developed to make a significant
contribution to such a project yet. However, if I were to follow such a
project from the start, this might change rapidly. So from a learning
perspective, I'm intrigued.

Anyone could explain me why for every function included in "winsock2.h" =
compiler says "[Linker error] undefined reference to 'FUNCTION_NAME @ =
INT'" (for example, for the function "connect" the message is =20
"[Linker error] undefined reference to `connect @ 12'").
How can i solve this problem?

Thanks, Max

Can an object pass itself into the function it is calling?

void DevModeDlg::OnSysCommand( UINT ID, LPARAM LParameter )
{
  try
  {
     DoOnSysCommandWork();
  }
  catch ( Exception &Obj )
  {
     Obj.SetErrorLog( &Obj )           // <--- Here
  }

}



where SetErrorLog

void Exception::SetErrorLog( Exception &Obj )
{
   //... create a text file and put in data contained in Obj.
}

I tried 'this' but b/c I'm inside another class' function it tries to pass 
that object (DevModeDlg)

SUBJECT: RE:  [Dev-C++] Debugging with 4.9.4.1
 
I hate to ask again, but I'm about to get sent off on a business trip and I
would like to play with Dev-C++ during some of the sleepless hours between
the end of official business and when I am able to get to sleep.

Why don't breakpoints seem to work in 4.9.4.1?  I have turned on debugging
myself (first project), and I have also allowed the IDE to turn on
debugging and rebuild (second project, when I pressed Debug on a
non-debuggable build).  I get exactly the same results in both cases.  In
both cases, the breakpoints are claimed to be invalid, and the debugger
terminates the program.

Hi there

Just downloaded the ToolTipCtrl C++ class from codebytes to get some "bubble 
help" on my App.

It needs commctrl.h and _WIN32_IE defined on a higher value of 0x300. All is 
OK by this side

But then, there is a linker error saying that it is impossible to link the 
definition of InitCommonControlsEx() function to any piece of object code. 
Did I miss something ? Isn't it included in libcommctl32.a, in the lib 
directory ?

Kind regards

Yes, but when you get a general protection fault of the IDE in address
0000xfff80000 because of some invalid memory usage, almost noone from
the list can detect and fix the problem (since we are mainly C/C++
programmers). If it was written in C++ and thus we had a clue of what is
going on in the code, Dev-C++ would be definately more stable. 


The main problem is that its authors are mainly Pascal/Delphi
programmers. :)

Hi *,

We are talking about helping in the development, bug-fixing tasks and to
extend IDE functionality, not only IDE speed.
While talking about "a drawback to advance faster" we are talking about
these tasks, not only 'the speed the IDE runs at'...

Think about this, AFAIK some features (like code completion or syntax
highlighting based on custom/personalized code libraries) DO need some sp=
eed
from the IDE ;o)

BTW, C++ is also a high level programming language (as VB or Delphi), so =
you
can write pure C++ code without worrying about low level programming deta=
ils
and achieve really fast & small programs... (Just take a look at point 4
from this interview to Bjarne Stroustrup
http://www.research.att.com/~bs/nantes-interview-english.html =3D8-O )

Anyway, it was only a suggestion... I like Dev-C++, but I'd like it more =
and
more if it was written in C++ ;oD

Regards, Santy
PS: For those really interested in writing assembler code, there's Visual=

Assembler IDE also available at http://www.vasm.orm enjoy it! };oP

I Don't think so, Really matters SPEED in a IDE like in games?, In other
words: Languages like VB or Delphi are more than appropiated for GUI desi=
gn
in the opposite side those are futile, and then C++ and assembler they
enter, if you like of real speed maybe you want to rewrite Dev-C++ in
assembler :)
