I 'am not sure exactly what program you compiled but if the program contains
32bit instructions it will not run if booted into dos mode but will run in
the dos prompt at least that what I noticed with my program ;O)

Subject: [Dev-C++] DEV-C++ 4.0 DOS queston

I just installed the program and am new to C++ so compiled a simple C
program.
It works like a champ in windows 98 DOS prompt but when I try and run it
after rebooting in DOS I get "This program cannot be run in DOS mode."
Thanks
for any info.

Hello everybody,

Here is my problem:

I have downloaded a DLL witch i want to use in my program. In the DLL
package there is the header file, a import library file (zlibdll.lib
that  i rename in libzlib.a and move to te directory "lib") and the DLL.

In the project options I put -lzlib (linker options). The project is
well compiled but when I run the program a message box tell me "The file

prog.exe is is linked with a missing "exportation" ZLIB.DLL.

Any idea ?

I only use "commctrl.h".

For mingw32 compiler you need to include the libcomctl32.a file in the
compiler options. In Dev-C++ you go to Project Options and click on
"Load Object Files". Look for the one above.

There are some definitions missing in the mingw32 commctrl.h header.
This will work.

#define ICC_BAR_CLASSES 4

Some other definitions are only available if you define in your code

#define _WIN_32 0x0400 // defines for Internet explorer 4.0

/usr/lib/g++-include/std/ and other are in =
/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql how do i specify both when using

Hey all you happy people, my name is Peter, and I need help, I'm =
interested in learning how to use the graphics functions in the graphics =
library in  Dev C++, if some one out there can explainto me how the =
functions work and how to initialize  the graphics mode, I'll be be very =
gratefull, for the rest of my programming years.
My e-mail is elp...@ya....  Thanks in advanced.

If that was addressed to me here's the text of my earlier reply:

"I have 64 Meg of RAM in the system and in the neighborhood of 15 to 20
free when I start to compile the program.  During compilation free
memory never drops below 10 Meg."

I'd like to turn off the debugging code added by the compiler but
program that I'm working on desperately needs it.  Four or five minutes
per compile is a bit constraining.  Does anyone know if I would benefit
by switching to the Cygwin compiler?  Perhaps I should implement handle
classes (or the "Cheshire cat") that I read about today in chapter 5 of
Eckel's Thinking in C++.

Well that will usually be automatic for any program just depends on your
amount of ram. How much ram do you have?

Vassili -

Thank you for your reply but the size of the resultant .EXE file is of
little concern to me.  I'm trying to increase use of the computer's RAM
during the compilation phase and reduce hard disk activity thereby
increasing the speed of the compilation.

Is there an archive for dev-cpp-users-lists?  There was one up until 
December of 2000 but it hasn't been active since then.  Is there a new one 
somewhere else?

I'm working my way through a book called "Windows 98 Programming From the 
Ground Up" and have reached the point where Common Controls are 
discussed.  I have entered the sample program to create a popup window with 
a vertical bar control and it uses the InitCommonControlsEx()  This 
requires "commctrl.h" and supposedly "comctl32.h" also.  The error I am 
getting is "ICC_BARS_CLASSES declared for first time".  This is supposed to 
be part of the INITCOMMONCONTROLSEX structure.  When I look in the Include 
directory for Dev-C++, there is no "comctl32.h" header file and 
"commctrl.h" does not declare it either.  There is a "comctl32.def" 
definition file in the Library directory but I thought Windows 95 didn't 
use them.  Anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?  I'm afraid that 
I move further in the book I'll experience the same errors for all the 
"ICC_..._CLASSES"  Thanks.
