Re: [Dev-C++] Diff. between project and unit

If you compile the project you use the compiler options in the project, b=
ut if
you compile only the unit you're using the "general" compiler options: th=
ose
you have in tools->Compiler options. If you compile the project you are a=
sking
for compile c or c++, win32 GUI, etc. If you compile the unit you're usin=
g the
other, perhaps c or c++ and win32 console.

What I imagine is that, although you should have a warning of undefined
reference to WinMain@32, it compiled the unit as a console app, so when y=
ou
run it it creates at first a console, but after it works creating the win=
dow.
