Hi,

the real problem is that name is a method of the Student_info class, not
a data field (see declaration). You have to change your code to 

istream& Student_info::read(istream& is)
  {
         //read and store the student's name and midterm and final exams
grades
         is >> n >> midterm >> final;

         read_hw(is, homework);    //read and store all the stud
homework grades
         return is;
  }

I think this is what you have wanted. BTW, istream& read_hw(istream& in,
vector<double>& hw) should return a value. Dev-CPP didn't warn me about
it, but C++ Builder did.

> Those commands are grey.....do I have to go to "FILE....open...or
source.":?

Don't bother.

In order to use S(tep) and N(ext) verify that the program is running.
Check the status line in the lower left corner.

You probably can't get the program to run from the Source window.  The
integration of Dev-C++ is not complete.  Open up the Console window then
go back to the Source window and hit the Run button.  If you check the
Console window now you'll probably see the error: "Argument required
(target name)."  I just hit R(un) in the Console window.

Now with the program running the buttons in the Source window should not
be greyed out.  S (step), N (next), F(finish) and C (continue) work from
the both the Source window and the Console window.  You can use the
single letter keyboard commands if you prefer.

I am studying from a book titled "Windows 98 Programming from the Ground 
Up" by Herbert Schildt and seem to be running into an unusual problem. I 
have entered the source code for the scroll bar examples and they work when 
compiled but not totally. When I grab the slider in the horizontal scroll 
bar it will move to where I want it and my position readout registered the 
movement but when I release the mouse button it snaps back to the zero 
position. Also, when I do a control scroll bar, in this case a vertical 
one, I can not drag the slider with the mouse. If I click on the down 
arrowed button the position readout registers movement but the slider just 
sits there and "blinks". I can't find any mistakes in my code as I typed it 
but maybe some one else has experienced similar problems and can tell me 
what they found to solve these problems.  I have included the portions of 
the resource file and source code where these are entered.
Can some one help?  Thanks.

Those commands are grey.....do I have to go to "FILE....open...or source.":?
I don't understand the Help topics....they are only about windows.  I would
like to see a bold line running across each line of code on the editor while
I step through the program.

Thanks,

RG

What exactly do you mean ? A makefile is just some file which tells
the program 'make' how to compile something. Documentation for make
should come with djgpp, or you can find it here:

http://www.fsf.org/manual/make-3.79.1/make.html

But to compile something, you don't need a makefile.. if you use an
editor like Dev-C++ you shouldn't need them at all, only if you are
giving your program away as a source distribution.

hi, does anyone know how to create a makefile in order to compile somthing 
in djgpp?

thanksyou.

The include file needed for the istream class is fstream.  The include file entry would therefore be
#include <fstream>

Hi again!

I've just found, by mistake, that
_AX = 0xEB
geninterrupt(0x10);
seems to be getting me into mode 320x240x256!!
But the really wierd about it, is that when I run my program on another 
machine, it goes crazy and sets up in some odd 800x600 textmode, or something. 
Is this explainable?
How DO i get into 320x240x256 in a safe way?

I really would apreciate, any help!!
Thanks!! :)

Alvaro, 

> Can anybody tell me how to Hide/Show a Window ? 

The ShowWindow function sets the specified window's show state. 

BOOL ShowWindow(

    HWND hWnd,	// handle of window
    int nCmdShow 	// show state of window
   );	
 

Parameters

hWnd

Identifies the window. 

nCmdShow

Specifies how the window is to be shown. This parameter is ignored the
first time an application calls ShowWindow, if the program that
launched the application provides a STARTUPINFO structure. Otherwise,
the first time ShowWindow is called, the value should be the value
obtained by the WinMain function in its nCmdShow parameter. In
subsequent calls, this parameter can be one of the following values: 

Value	Meaning
SW_HIDE	Hides the window and activates another window.
SW_MAXIMIZE	Maximizes the specified window.
SW_MINIMIZE	Minimizes the specified window and activates the next
top-level window in the Z order.
SW_RESTORE	Activates and displays the window. If the window is
minimized or maximized, Windows restores it to its original size and
position. An application should specify this flag when restoring a
minimized window.
SW_SHOW	Activates the window and displays it in its current size and
position. 
SW_SHOWDEFAULT	Sets the show state based on the SW_ flag specified in
the STARTUPINFO structure passed to the CreateProcess function by the
program that started the application. 
SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED	Activates the window and displays it as a maximized
window.
SW_SHOWMINIMIZED	Activates the window and displays it as a minimized
window.
SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE	Displays the window as a minimized window. The
active window remains active.
SW_SHOWNA	Displays the window in its current state. The active window
remains active.
SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE	Displays a window in its most recent size and
position. The active window remains active.
SW_SHOWNORMAL	Activates and displays a window. If the window is
minimized or maximized, Windows restores it to its original size and
position. An application should specify this flag when displaying the
window for the first time.
 

Return Values

If the window was previously visible, the return value is nonzero. 
If the window was previously hidden, the return value is zero. 

Remarks

The first time a program calls ShowWindow, it uses the WinMain
function's nCmdShow parameter as its nCmdShow
 parameter. Subsequent calls to ShowWindow must use one of the values
in the given list, instead of the one specified by the WinMain
function's nCmdShow parameter. 
As noted in the discussion of the nCmdShow parameter, the nCmdShow
value is ignored in the first call to ShowWindow if the program that
launched the application specifies startup information in the
STARTUPINFO structure. In this case, ShowWindow uses the information
specified in the STARTUPINFO structure to show the window. On
subsequent calls, the application must call ShowWindow with nCmdShow
set to SW_SHOWDEFAULT to use the startup information provided by the
program that launched the application. For example, Program Manager
specifies that applications start with a minimized main window. This
behavior is designed for the following situations: 

·	Applications create their main window by calling CreateWindow with
the WS_VISIBLE flag set. 
·	Applications create their main window by calling CreateWindow with
the WS_VISIBLE flag cleared, and later call ShowWindow with the SW_SHOW
flag set to make it visible. 


> and how to put a icon in the
> system tray (when de window is not visible)?
> 
Use the function Shell_NotifyIcon (shellapi.h)

[Now Supported on Windows NT]

Sends a message to the system to add, modify, or delete an icon from
the taskbar status area.

WINSHELLAPI BOOL WINAPI Shell_NotifyIcon(

    DWORD dwMessage,	// message identifier
    PNOTIFYICONDATA pnid	// pointer to structure
   );	
 

Parameters

dwMessage

Identifier of the message to send. This parameter can be one of these
values:

NIM_ADD	Adds an icon to the status area.
NIM_DELETE	Deletes an icon from the status area.
NIM_MODIFY	Modifies an icon in the status area. 
 

pnid

Pointer to a NOTIFYICONDATA structure. The content of the structure
depends on the value of dwMessage. 

 

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero.

More info in theForger's tutorial or FAQ (I'm not sure). You can find a
link to that tutorials at

Hope this helps.

I am studying from a book titled "Windows 98 Programming from the Ground 
Up" by Herbert Schildt and seem to be running into an unsual problem.  I 
have entered the source code for the scroll bar examples and they work when 
compiled but not totally.  When I grab the button in the horizontal scroll 
bar it will move to where I want it and my position readout registered the 
movement but when I release the mouse button it snaps back to the zero 
position.  Also, when I do a control scroll bar, in this case a vertical 
one, I can not drag the button with the mouse.  If I click on the down 
arrowed button the position readout registers movement but the button just 
sits there and "blinks".  I can't find any mistakes in my code as I typed 
it but maybe some one else has experienced similar problems and can tell me 
what they found to solve these problems.  Thanks.

Hi there!

How do I get into 320x240x256??


(I've heard some about that it's called Guru-mode, or something. I think it is 
a really cool resolution, so if anyone can help I would be like 8)


THANKS!

Hi all,

I'm writing a program which reads and calculates students grades. I have =
a Student_info struct with its member functions in a Student_info.h.

when i compile, i get the error=20
no match for istream & >> {unknown type}

in the Student_info.cpp file. Can anyone help me. The definition for the =
problem funtion is=20

istream& Student_info::read(istream& is)
  {
         //read and store the student's name and midterm and final exams =
grades
         is >> name >> midterm >> final;
        =20
         read_hw(is, homework);    //read and store all the stud =
homework grades
         return is;
  }

BELOW IS THE HEADER FILE;

#ifndef GUARD_Student_info_h
#define GUARD_Student_info_h

// Student_info.h header file
#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>
#include <vector>

       Student_info();
       Student_info(std::istream&);
       std::string name() const {return n;}
       bool valid() const {return !homework.empty();}

Using the M$ Visual C libs just like normal (.a) libs sometimes works. Or if
you can get the original files (.cpp I think) you can recompile the library
to be a .a.
In the Project options, I don't think you need a -l. Try using the Browse...
button to get the files, but you have to convert it back to 8.3(MSDOS)
format.

All Windows dynamic libs have a .dll suffix, even if they're created using
DEV-C++.  DEV-C++ has a dll project that can get you started.  I haven't
done any dlls yet, so I can't help much past that.

As for static libs, the DEV-C++ gui doesn't support them.  However, the
command line tools do.  I have attached a makefile I wrote to build a
static lib.  Put DEV-C++'s bin directory in your path, tweak the source
file names and library name, and type "make" at the command prompt.  As for
file names, the makefile should be names "makefile" not "makefile.win" and
the library should be named "lib______.a"

As for libraries you got from other sources, DEV-C++ uses a different
format static library from M$ Visual C and, as far as I know, there is no
way.  It should be possible to get the dlls to work though.  Again, I
haven't tried, so I can't list the steps.  There are several .def files in
the DEV-C++ lib directory.  I think these fit in somehow.

In general, you add libraries by going into project options and, under
"further object files or linker options," type -l______ -l______ (no spaces
after the l).  Replace the blanks with the names of the libraries.  As an
example, suppose I have the libraries libfoo.a and bar.dll.  I would put
"-lfoo -lbar"

  Subject: [Dev-C++] Slow "File" drop-down menu


  Does anybody know why when I click on "File" in the menu bar of =
Dev-CPP that it takes 5 or 6 seconds before the drop down menu appears?
  Am I the only one experiencing this?  So far that's the only problem, =
if it can be called a problem, that I've had with Dev-CPP.  Is this a =
bug?
