dev-cpp-users Mailing List for Dev-C++

Don't know about the resolution  of the previously reported problem, but
somehow there seems to be a missing

#define IDC_STATIC (-1)

in an include file somewhere. I have it defined in winuser.h which gets
included from winresrc.h which gets included from windows.h

I'm new to windows programming and dev-c++. As I was going through an =
online tutorial, I ran across the exact same problem as yokosima on your =
mailing list dated 2003-08-12 02:48. Is this user error or a larger =
problem? His problem states:

work, not even before I made any changes.=20

dear friends
It is the first time to use DEV C++ 4.9.8.0 so I need an example on how =
to write dll=20
Library.
Please replay to nab...@ga...

If you look a bit closer at the two methods, you will notice the different
signatures

Employee::printCheck() is const
HourlyEmployee::printCheck() isn't const

I have just loaded Red Hat Linux 8 on my computer,
Could anyone tell me how I may install Dev C++ for linux?

Can someone please tell me why my main() function isn't accepting the
redefined function of my base class?  Everything seems to be compiling
correctly, but the base class printCheck function is executing and not the
derived class function.

Here are the excepts of code:

// -- BASE CLASS -- //
    void Employee::printCheck() const
    {
        cout << "\nERROR: print_check FUNCTION CALLED FOR AN \n"
             << "UNDIFFERENTIATED EMPLOYEE.  Aborting program.\n"
             << "Check with the author of the progrm about this bug.\n";
        exit(1);
    }

// -- DERIVED CLASS -- //
    void HourlyEmployee::printCheck()
    {
        setNetPay(hours * wageRate);
        
        cout <<
"\n__________________________________________________________\n";
        cout << "Pay o the order of " << getName() << endl;
        cout << "The sum of " << getNetPay() << " Dollars\n";
        cout <<
"\n__________________________________________________________\n";
        cout << "Check Stub: NOT NEGOTIABLE:\n";
        cout << "Employee Number: " << getSSN() << endl;
        cout << "Hourly employee.\n Hours Worked: " << hours
             << " Rate: " << wageRate << " Pay: " << getNetPay() << endl;
        cout <<
"\n__________________________________________________________\n"; 
    }

// -- MAIN -- //
    HourlyEmployee joe;
    joe.setName("Mighty Joe");
    joe.setSSN("123-65-6547");
    joe.setRate(50.20);
    joe.setHours(40);
    cout << "Check for " << joe.getName() << " for " << joe.getHours() << "
hours\n";
    joe.printCheck();
	  ^this call is where thing go crazy

Hi,

Your code source is good compiled to me in last version of DEV C++ =
4.9.8.3.

But i have question for this release (dev c++):
The soft is to slow unlike 4.9.8.1,and especially when opening a project =
or source in parsing mode.
Why?

Hi,

I also needed access to the serial port and was trying out for a long
time.
The documents mentioned below helped me a lot.

Try to find:
The Serial-Programming-HOWTO,
the Serial Programming Guide for POSIX Operating Systems
and maybe the serial-HOWTO.

These documents helped me a lot but I have to mention that I use the
Cygwin System and I don't know whether the Mingw is providing the same
header files.
I also have the code of a dump terminal wich shows how to configer the
serial  interface.
If it is helpful for you I can send you the source of this simple
terminal program.
With these example I derived my own class to do the basic control of
the serial terminal.

Greetings

Frank

>>> Roberto Ricardi <rob...@ar...> 10/16 3:38  >>>
Hi all,

I need take control over the serial ports to monitoring reads data, I 
saw a lot of info about c++, clases and so on.

I wish to stay in c only by the while, in a console application, gcc 
2.9xxx, dev-cpp & win32. Where I can found serial ports libraries to 
work in it ? Im confuse about.

Thanks in advance

Roberto

It's a variable declaration, just as
    int my_integer;
Note that in C++ you can place variable declarations just about
everywhere, while a C compiler only want them at start of a block.

You must make sure that you are including the file where RASCONNSTATUS is
declared.

Can anyone, please, help me explain this statement?

I know I don't know C, but most of it at least kind of looks like familiar 
things from other languages. I don't get it. It doesn't even look like a 
valid statement. I have no idea where  to start to look it up. It's not an 
'if' or a 'print' or a loop, or a math statement, or anything you could 
look up. It's just there and the compiler says it's a parse error.

    RASCONNSTATUS rasConnStatus;

The rest of the subroutine is below if that helps but my main focus at the 
moment is the purpose of this statement.

BTW, I tried sticking an = in there and that blew up even worse :)

ms






void wd_hangup (HRASCONN x_conn)
{
    RasHangUp (x_conn);


   // Wait for a second before checking to see if it's been disconnected.
   //
    Sleep (1000);


   // Keep checking in a loop until the connection is no longer valid.
   //
    RASCONNSTATUS rasConnStatus;


    rasConnStatus.dwSize = sizeof (RASCONNSTATUS);


    while (RasGetConnectStatus (x_conn, &rasConnStatus) != 
ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
      // Wait a bit before checking again.
      //
       Sleep (250);
    }

the warning is pointing at the wrong spot, it's yelling about a declaration, 
and pointing at the call in main

>	warning: friend declaration `std::ostream&
>opacki::operator<<(std::ostream&, const opacki::List<ItemType>&)'
>	declares a non-template function

note: friend 'declaration'
the problem is probably in class declaration
most likely:

>friend ostream& operator <<(ostream& outs, const List<ItemType>& theList);

involving the 'friend ostream&'

that is all I have found

as a guess:  there is no template for a friend declaration in this context

if anyone else can find more, please let me know
if I'm chasing a wild goose, please let me know

Jeff
