Thread: [Dev-C++] In desperate need of help

Hi,

Brand new member of this group.

I'm working with Dev c++ (4.9.6.0) under win XP.
(If its of any use. I'm also using Flex and Bison)

Anyway; I was doing grate; untill about half an hour ago. Dev c++ =
started hanging up. And now it won't start.

Actually. It does start. But It shuts down when I try to open my =
project.

I'm 10 mins away from going nuts here. I have a deadline on tuesday.

As I said. I'm in desperate need of help, ideas (and above all =
solutions)

Thx=20
Santi

****************

Now, Only to give U the hole story. It all started a couple of days ago; =
when It started crashing (not everytime, but eventually)
when I tryed to access a pointer (p-> )

It continued today.

On my win Xp; it just shuts down without further notice.=20
But on the other machine we are working ( a win 98SE) it crahses the =
system.



--------------

I have tryed; opening old versions of the project. But the results are =
the same.

Looks like class browser is going nuts... try to disabling it in
options... also if this does not help delete devC++ ini, and if you
have some problems opening you project make it again - not everything
form the scratch, but make new one and copy old .cpp and .h files, and .rc
if you have it... then add these files to your new project...

Hope these helps...

I agree it's about code completion, I had a couple of shut downs (I was
lucky, only twice), and once of them it achieved to launch vRoach which
shows info about what was the state when the error occurred, and there
was an error and the code completion in action, it just closed when I
tryed to type the - of ->.
The best I can say is try updating with vUpdate, you must have it in the
bin directory of dev, it's not a big download, about 2MB, less than five
minutes with my 56kb modem. For that you have to close Dev, since it
changes the name of dev.exe to dev.exe.BACKUP and saves the new version
as dev.exe. Now we are at 4.9.6.9 and I didn't found that bug again
since 4.6.9.1.

If anything else fails you can place c:\dev-c++\bin in your path and use
g++ from the command line in the style:
 
g++ temp.cpp -o temp
 
or for C:
 
g++ temp.c -o temp

That  is all true, but for a project with more than one file, it won't
work. You have to compile the source files individually to object (.o)
files, then you need to link them together. Something like this:
(The -c flag tells gcc not to link, but just to compile)

gcc -c -o temp1.o temp1.c
gcc -c -o temp2.o temp2.c
gcc -c -o temp3.o temp3.c

Some resources (if you have):

windres -i tempres.rc -o tempres.o

Then link together:

gcc temp1.o temp2.o temp3.o tempres.o -o temp.exe -mwindows

If  you  use common controls (if you call InitCommonControls() in your
program, then you do) use the -lcomctl32 flag too at the linking.

Of course resources have to be compiled separately...

gcc *.o temp.exe -mwindows

Or one may directly instruct "make" about how to compile and link

Just my two cents (... even though it's a bit late for the help request :)
