Michael,

Did you install WxWindows from the DevPak or separately?  If from the
DevPak, it is ready to go.  If separately, I'm not sure....

Subject: [Dev-C++] Help with wxWindows


I'm trying to get wxWindows to work with Dev-C++.  My question is, do I need
to build wxWindows after installing it or should I be able to create a
project right away by simply including the the correct directories in my
project?

Thanks for any help,
Michael

Hi guys, I sent this e-mail to the "feature request" people from DevC++. =
I wonder if you can give me a hint:
"Hi Guys,=20
DevC++ is now very known for being a revolutionary free IDE, not only by =
advance programmers but also by newbies (like me). There is a critical =
feature in TurboC++ 4.5(my old compiler) which I'm surprised is missing =
in DevC++. I have seen people requesting that feature in forums and in =
DevC++ e-mail lists. I'm talking about the "trace" feature, where you =
actually trace line by line (f7 in turbo C++) to find that stupid =
mistake that one couldn't find by reading the whole code 10 times. If =
you decided to not use "trace", I'm sure there's a very good reason why, =
but could you please explain it to me so I can see what I'm missing?
Thank you and keep doing such an amazing job with DevC++, the =
friendliest IDE out there."

This might be a stupid question, but I'm still learning, so I'll =
appreciate any feedback.

Thank you.
San

Today is another day. WinFS is based on the upcoming SQL Server's
technology code-named "Yukon".

Hi.
I have quite strange problem with dialog based application.
When I try to compile and execute such program I get console
window waiting for close. I've tried many different examples
from books, wizards(other programs ex. lcc-win32), tutorials etc.
I get always the same result - console window.
Did anyone have such problem?
Thanks.

When you update with vUpdate you don't need manage those box setttings be=
cause
it uses the config file the previous version was using, you did it yet be=

Well till 2004+, all will have moved to .NET. I do not what will happen
will legacy code, but probably it will be lost. But I DO NOT KNOW. I am
telling what i have read so far (and few things are available regarding
Longhorn so far).

Yes the compiler must support .NET. Dev-C++'s MINGW will probably do so
till then (but .NET is a different API). :)

The code is not portable. It doesn't compile in C++ mode:
 
temp.cpp: In function `int main()':
temp.cpp:4: `strcmp' undeclared (first use this function)
temp.cpp:4: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each
function 
   it appears in.)
temp.cpp:4: warning: unused variable `int i'
> Execution finished.

Subject: [Dev-C++] Why does this work???


Hi all,
In the two books I have, it says that in order to use the C-Style
function strcmp, I need to #include <string.h>. I tried the following in
compilers including DevC++ and it works.......?
//no includes.....
int main()
{
    char a[] = "Hello";
   int i = strcmp(a, "There");
    return 0;
}
 
To better show you, I didn't use any #include. Anyone has any idea as to
why this program compiles? If iostream.h is added and if you cout<<i
then it shows the returned value.
 
Thanks for your feedback.

Longhorn is still far away. It will even have an entirely different file
system the WinFS, based on the upcoming SQL Server release (i do not
remember its codename, my brain is very tired these days :)). It will be
a database file system, that is one will be able to issue queries on it.
My guess regarding managed APIs only support of Longhorn, is that it
probably is part of the Palladium project, in which BillG must know all
of your habbits (because he loves and cares about you as a Father,
that's why) and this can't be done in Win32 API stuff. Longhorn will
also have an advanced video api for amazing graphics.


Expect Longhorn at the earliest in 2004. Imagine what computers we will
have then (it's a century in computer time).

Because arguments is empty. You will either use push_back() or, you will
create initial objects using the constructor or resize().
