dev-cpp-users Mailing List for Dev-C++ (Page 748)

Has anyone gotten Dev-C++ 4 to work with DirectX. I'm
trying to compile a DirectX 8 program and I'm still
getting the following error message
   c:\my documents\main.o(.text+0x1d0):main.cpp:
 undefined reference to `DirectDrawCreateEx@16'

I have the following option "-fvtable-thunks" set, as
well as linking to libraries ddraw & dxguid. Also the
include files are set. I tried using the directx7
package but I get the same error. I looked over the
past postings and still haven't found a clear answer.

Hi,

Not only removing the ";" but you have to replace the 2nd "if" for an
"else if". Then everything should be OK.

Hi folks,

can anybody tell me how to get rid of the compiler output automaticly
when it isn't needed?

I already checked
    View / Compiler Output / Show only when needed
but the window with those messages keeps visible all the time.

Gregor

Hi,
 
If you remove the ";" after else than your program should work
the way you  want. You could also change your program
so that you do the reading of data in a loop.

ok I'm trying to make a simple celcius, farenheit converter.  I want it to
ask which you want to convert to, what temperature, and then convert.  I
already have everything working prefectly except that I ask the user to type
in what to convert to.  The way I have it if they type 1 it converts celcius
to farenheit and 2 farenheit to celcius.  Now heres the problem.  I want it
so that if a user types any number but 1 or 22 it says "invalid entry"  I
have that working too but if  the user picks to type in 1 to convert celcius
to farenheit right after he puts in his number it converts it and then says
invalid entry.  I dont want it to say invalid entry there.  Only if the user
types in something besides 1 or 2.  Heres the code any help would be great.

 

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <stdlib.h>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
while(1)
{
string type;

cout << "Would you like to convert to Celcius or Farenheit?" <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "1. Farenheit" <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "2. Celcius" <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
cin >>type;

if (type== "1")
{
unsigned short int tempc;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "Please enter the Celcius temperature you wish to convert."<<endl;
cin>> tempc;
cout << " " <<endl;
unsigned short int degreefarenheit=tempc*9/5+32;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "Temperature in Farenheit:" << degreefarenheit <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
}
if (type== "2")
{
unsigned short int tempf;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "Please enter the farenheit temperature you wish to convert."<<endl;
cin >> tempf;
cout << " " <<endl;

cout << "Temperature in Celcius:" << degreecelcius <<endl;
cout &l! t;< " " <<endl;
}
else;
{
cout << "Invalid entry please try again" <<endl;
}
system("PAUSE");
}
return 0;
}


 

If you could rewrite it for me or just tell me what I did wrong it would be
greatly appreciated.  

Thanks again,

First, find the exe file (DevCpp.exe). For this, click on the start menu,
then go to Find -> Find files or folfer. Then search for DevCpp.exe in your
C: drive. If you don't find it then you have not installed the program
properly. If you find it then double-click on it to run DevC++ for teh first
time.

Thanks for the response.

I could not associate .c and .cpp files.The entire programme is lying in one
folrder devcpp4.Clicking it should create te environment,instead appears the
source on a wordpad document.

Probably some thing very preliminary is missing.Pardon for my ignorance but
do help me please.

ok I'm trying to make a simple celcius, farenheit converter.  I want it to ask which you want to convert to, what temperature, and then convert.  I already have everything working prefectly except that I ask the user to type in what to convert to.  The way I have it if they type 1 it converts celcius to farenheit and 2 farenheit to celcius.  Now heres the problem.  I want it so that if a user types any number but 1 or 22 it says "invalid entry"  I have that working too but if  the user picks to type in 1 to convert celcius to farenheit right after he puts in his number it converts it and then says invalid entry.  I dont want it to say invalid entry there.  Only if the user types in something besides 1 or 2.  Heres the code any help would be great.

 

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <stdlib.h>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
while(1)
{
string type;

cout << "Would you like to convert to Celcius or Farenheit?" <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "1. Farenheit" <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "2. Celcius" <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
cin >>type;

if (type== "1")
{
unsigned short int tempc;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "Please enter the Celcius temperature you wish to convert."<<endl;
cin>> tempc;
cout << " " <<endl;
unsigned short int degreefarenheit=tempc*9/5+32;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "Temperature in Farenheit:" << degreefarenheit <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
}
if (type== "2")
{
unsigned short int tempf;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "Please enter the farenheit temperature you wish to convert."<<endl;
cin >> tempf;
cout << " " <<endl;
unsigned short int degreecelcius=tempf-32*5/9;
cout << " " <<endl;
cout << "Temperature in Celcius:" << degreecelcius <<endl;
cout << " " <<endl;
}
else;
{
cout << "Invalid entry please try again" <<endl;
}
system("PAUSE");
}
return 0;
}


 

If you could rewrite it for me or just tell me what I did wrong it would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks again,

J

 So your saying that you can't open source code?
 And Dev-C++ won't respond?

 Well, I don't know about the program itself, but for you to open source 
code, you need to associate Dev-C++ with .c and .cpp files first. If you've 
already done that and it still doesn't work... well, you should be able to 
open code files directly from Dev-C++,(Which is the same thing)

 If it's the program that doesn't work, I think you should try downloading 
again.

i don't remember to have received your email. Before trying to load a source
file in Dev-C++ from the explorer you need to run DevCpp.exe one time, that it
associates .c and .cpp files with it. After installing it you should have a
Dev-C++ menu in your Start menu/Programs, so run it from there before.

Hope this helps,

Are you just double-clicking on C++ files ? Try opening Dev C++ first from
Start -> Programs -> Dev C++ -> Dev C++ (or from the shortcut icon). Then
open the file using the File-> Open menu.

Hsutao : Hi !

Thanks for the response.I have Windows 95.When I open the file I get Source
Code on Word Pad document.Do you think I should download again.There is no
response from Blood Shed either.Please help.

Hi all,

I've just downloaded and installed wxwindows. Is there any way of
intergrating it with Dev c++ so that i can write and compile wxwindows
programs using dev c++. Also what are the down sides of such an integration
if any.

If it won't work with dev c++, then i'll like to know if there is any editor
that i can use inconjuntion with my cygwin compiler (details of
configuration changes will be most well come).

Lastly any further tip(s) on setting up wxwindows will be most appreciated.

Hello again,

Never mind about the link, I found it in the backtraffic. A couple of 
notes, there are some places in Forger's tutorial where NULL is 
used instead of 0 or other valid parameters in that code; particularly 
in CreateFile and .styles. Not the best practice in C, and error-
prone in C++. 

Here is a link describing proper use of CreateFile:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?URL=/library/psdk/winbase/filesio_7wmd.htm

That should all be one line.

I would /strongly/ suggest finding Petzold's "Programming 
Windows" book if you are planning on doing Windows 
programming. You might even be able to find an earlier edition for 
cheap.

Hi.

What do you mean when you say you can't operate it? What happens when you 
try to start it up? (Sprry. you need to be more specific)

As for the answer to your question, I don't think there are any notable 
requirements. What version/langueage of Windows do you use?

Hope this helps!

textbackground(15); //I can't think of white off hand but I think 15 is 
correct

Ok, NULL is used for pointers. Make sure that NULL is being 
assigned to a pointer (eg: char * and not char)
Actually, looking at the call below, should you really be assigning a 
NULL pointer to the above code or should it be the NUL character 
instead '\0'?
>

Ok, generally, *.c files are compiled as C, not C++. C allows the 
implicit conversion, whereas C++ does not. You must provide a 
cast for the returned value (or compile as a C program).

As above...

Ok, using the above variable notation, I would assume that pszText 
is defined as char * or equivalent (pointer to NUL terminated array 
of char.) 

pszText = (char *) GlobalAlloc(GPTR, dwTextLength + 1);

Hopefully that helped, otherwise feel free to post more of the 
offending code, or a link if it's online.

This is from the Forger's Win32 API tutorials.  I tried to compile the example
"file_one" but in File_one.c I got the following error messages:

17 file_one.c
  warning: converting NULL to non-pointer type

25 file_one.c
  ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in assignment

49 file_one.c
  warning: converting NULL to non-pointer type

57 file_one.c
  ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in assignment

179 file_one.c
  warning: converting NULL to non-pointer type

0

Both have the following same line of code:

   pszText = GlobalAlloc(GPTR, dwTextLength + 1);

Can anyone tell me what went wrong?  Thank in advance.

Hello,

C++ doesn't automatically mean creating windows. Anyway, the 
above is also valid C (though requiring the inclusion of non-standard 
headers, libraries, etc..)

> in c use:
> #include <graphice.h>
> void far setbkcolor(int WHITE);

No reason why this could not be used in C++ either (of course, 
assuming the existance of the appropriate headers, libraries, yada 
yada...)

Hello,

 
> Well, there is a textcolor() function in <conio.c>
> 
> #include <iostream>
> #include <conio.c>
> using namespace std;

You should not be #including .c files like this. That is what the 
linker is for. #include <conio.h> and add conio.o to the linker 
options. Including .c files leads to multiple definition errors from the 
linker.

--
regards,

Nick

in c++ use the following in Winmain:
 wincl.hbrBackground =3D (HBRUSH) GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH); // change =
WHITE to LT_GRAY etc.
in c use:
#include <graphice.h>
void far setbkcolor(int WHITE);

Oops, you are absolutely right, it is pointer comparison.
