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

I'm another one of those guys leaving harvesting and trying out programming. 
In this program I must display the time, secs, mins, and hours. I'm still 
working on it, I was wondering if there is a better  way to make it wait a 
minute than doing a while loop. Also, I don't want the thing scrolling down 
the screen, it seems like it should not move, I have'nt wrote that part, but 
I will tonight. I would think that you don't do carriage return line feed, 
and use a backspace character ?

Here's my member function prototype in the class Time

  // Wait a second
   void wait_a_second();

Here's my "While Loop" definition in the Function File

// Wait one second, set for Intel Celeron Processor 366MHZ
void Time::wait_a_second()
{
	  int count_down = 51000000;  //iterations for 366 celeron pocessor
//Wait for second to lapse
	  while(count_down > 0)       //simple repetitive instruction
	  {
		  count_down += -1;       //decrement value in variable
	  }
}

Again, I will be working on the stationary display tonight.

thanks for any ideas

Louis

Colin,
I would very much like to see a Linux version of DevC++.
I'd be more than happy to purchace both versions.

Hello,

Unfortunately for C++ programmers, Dev-c++/pascal will be wrote using Kylix
(portable Delphi) for speeding up development time. Borland will release soon a free delphi compiler 
so anybody who knows delphi could participate.

Greetings,
Colin

Hi to all, I'm new in this mailing-list.I need some informations.
I wanted to know the correct syntax of the command "__asm".
I try with:

WNDCLASSEX wincl;

__asm mov wincl.style, CS_DBLCLKS

and returns the error:
    parse error before `wincl'

Thanks

p.s. excuse my bad english :-)

Tabs work too (as in EditPad).
Will you be using wxWindows. In that case the development scheme
could be simplified. The blocks LINUX and WINDOWS could be
eliminated. Also other platforms come into view as well, like
BeOS.

I report my problems with Dev-CPP. I had some problems but I can't
remember them now.

iostream, fstream etc: the standard says you can use ios_base::in,
ios_base::out etc. to specify the open mode. Dev-C++ doesn't know these,
you have to use fstream::in, fstream::out etc. The later will of course
work on a standard C++ compiler too.

string: the template char_traits< > is string_char_traits< > in Dev-CPP.

I think the Borland C++ Compiler 5.5 is ANSI compliant very well and you
can get it at www.borland.com for free. It is also included in the C++
Builder 5.

Multi-window sometimes gets too complicated for the uses its intended for.
Using project explorer would be fine. Also using tab sheets (from what I'm
guessing this is) would be good.

Subject: [Dev-C++] The Plan :)

Hi all !

for those who may be interested about how the next Dev-C++ version will be
made,
you can take a look at the development scheme at :
http://www.haikuzone.org/dev/dev_plan.jpg
The development (coding) should begin in at least one-two months, and i'm
planning everyting at this moment (maybe Hongli Lai will be of the party
too).
Porting and making a portable version of Dev-c++/pascal will be a long an
hard
work, so i think no working beta versions will be released before
august-september (and maybe more).
Also, i was thinking of changing the mdi style editing (multi-window) to
tabsheets or simply use the project explorer to manage and edit files.
Please give me your opinion on this :)

Subject: [Dev-C++] Using PlaySound

I included mmsystem.h and used PlaySound(stuff here) and it compiled ok but
not linked. It said undefined refernce to PlaySoundA@12.

Or mod() from cmath (math.h in C).

  Subject: [Dev-C++] Peter You Problem I Solved the Problem.


  In your Program You tried (km_travelled%1000) I guess you wanted to find
the remainder when km_travelled divided by 1000 The Modulus Operator % works
only with integers.  If you want to find remainder use integer parsing. The
Corrected Program Is Included Below....

What this message is talking about is this earlyier message that I sent =

  May I clarify my E-mail.
  I have tried to compile Sendmail-8.10.0 and Apache 1.3.19(Windows =
version).
  Each time, Dev-C++ Complains It can't find the headers, even If I put =
all headers in one directory or the \include dir in the root folder of =
Dev-C++

I included mmsystem.h and used PlaySound(stuff here) and it compiled ok =
but not linked. It said undefined refernce to PlaySoundA@12.

Peter,

In the book I have for C++ says

"All floating-point arithmetic is done in double precision. So the only
time you should use float instead of double is when you are storing
large quantities of real numbers and are concerned about storage space
or access time"

Hope this helps
 
Chemanuel

    Sure to add version info to your program, in the resource file add =
something like this:

VS_VERSION_INFO VERSIONINFO
 FILEVERSION 1,0,0,1
 PRODUCTVERSION 1,0,0,1
 FILEFLAGSMASK 0x3fL
 FILEOS 0x4L
 FILETYPE 0x1L
 FILESUBTYPE 0x0L
BEGIN
    BLOCK "StringFileInfo"
    BEGIN
        BLOCK "040904b0"
        BEGIN
            VALUE "Comments", "Some comments.\0"
            VALUE "CompanyName", "Company name\0"
            VALUE "FileDescription", "Stuff\0"
            VALUE "FileVersion", "1.0\0"
            VALUE "InternalName", "Stuff\0"
            VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Copyright (C) 2001\0"
            VALUE "LegalTrademarks", "\0"
            VALUE "OriginalFilename", "Stuff.cpp\0"
            VALUE "PrivateBuild", "\0"
            VALUE "ProductName", "Stuff\0"
            VALUE "ProductVersion", "1.0\0"
            VALUE "SpecialBuild", "\0"
        END
    END
    BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
    BEGIN
        VALUE "Translation", 0x409, 1200
    END
END

    You can add any field you want just make another VALUE. To change =
the window title use:
SetWindowText(hwnd, "Title for window");
