Thread: [Dev-C++] Compiling C source with GCC in Dev-C++

Hello,
I am using a special library compiled in Cygwin. I have to type a =
special command line for compiling a program, the command line is:

# gcc $(libvncserver-config --cflags) -o main main.c =
$(libvncserver-config --libs)

The problem is that I don't know how to include this command line inside =
Dev-C++, I mean, I want to use Dev-C++ for developing the app and debug =
it.
Thanks for your help.

Juan

if you are using dev-c++ with cygwin simply run in the cygwin shell
libvncserver-config --cflags
and grab the output and put it to Compiler editbox on the Project
Options\Parameters tab and then
libvncserver-config --libs
and put the output to Linker editbox

if you want use dev-c++ with mingw you will have to translate the things
like -I/usr/include to windows paths

Ok, I have done your tip, but Dev-C++ reports this:

"unrecognized option -fdollar-in-identifiers"

I don't know what is this about... maybe a bug in Dev-C++?

CYou

You don't have the $ sign in identifiers option checked in compiler options.

Hello,
Finally, the source compiled Ok. But when I tried to use the debug =
feature of Dev-C++, the blue cursor doesn't appear in the code. I =
compiled the source with the "Generate debugging information" option, =
and the parameters -g and -gcoff in the compiler options, and doesn't do =
the job.
Maybe there is a trick, or the like...

Thanks in advance.

Juan

  You don't have the $ sign in identifiers option checked in compiler =
options.

You can do two things:
1. Compile from the command line
2. Compiler Settings in the Tools menu
