Dev-C++ compiling problem

[=?utf-8?B?4piG4piG4piG4piG4piGIFPDvCBLZWl0aCBDaGFr]

Installed this compiler on Vista; a simple
"hello world" after compiled and run would pop-up a window
"source file not compiled"

I've seen this question asked a few times on Internet groups and
noone seems to have figure it out.

What is going on?

This surely is retarded; the most basic C programming problem and here
is another dude

The fix is easy. Use a different operating system. I can't believe you
actually paid good money for Vista. It's like buying polio.

What is going on?

Linux, if you're lucky. Failing that, XP.

That's odd... Windows Vista was supposed to make things easier to use
and
this OS doesn't even have "Windows Help" anymore

"Why can't I get Help from this program?
The Help for this program was created in Windows Help format, which
was used in previous versions of Windows and it is not supported in
Windows Vista.
For more information, see Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe) is no
longer included with Windows on the Microsoft support website."

Here is a follow-up story
Working with Vista
By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) - 2007-04-14 05:14
I know that there are other related threads but I thought that I
should start one showing Bloodshed Dev C working successfully under
Windows Vista

I have been a happy user of Bloodshed Dev C under Windows XP, but my
attempts to use it with Vista had always ended in failure. I had seen
forum postings where others had similar problems and where a few had
posted solutions - however their instructions didn't seem to work for
me.

This is possibly because I was trying to install the Bloodshed Dev C
with it's own builtin MinGW GCC environment (which apparently has path
related bugs). When Bloodshed was installed under Vista it seemed that
the MinGW files got put in the wrong places. Even when I manually
corrected this I couldn't make GCC find all the files it needed.

So I decided to try installing the latest candidate MinGW first and
then Install Bloodshed Dev C to use this instead of its own built in
compiler. This also has the advantage of allowing a much newer MinGW -
in fact I ended up installing GCC 4.1.2 instead of using the built in
GCC 3.4.2

Here is what I did:-


Step 1 - Install the latest candidate MinGW

Go to http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw

Download and run the current MinGW installer:- MinGW-5.1.3.exe

For installation I selected:-
Download and install
Candidate
Install MinGW base tools & MinGW Make
to
C:\MinGW

This installed the following components:-
W32api-3.9
mingw-runtime-3.12
mingw32-make-3.81
binutils-2.17.50
gcc-core-3.4.5


Step 2 - Install Bloodshed Dev C WITHOUT MinGW

Go to http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html

Download and run Dev-C++ 5.0 beta 9.2 (4.9.9.2), executable only (2.4
MB)

The link will get devcpp-4.9.9.2_nomingw _setup.exe from sourceforge:-

http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?groupname=dev-cpp&filename=devcpp-4.9.9.2_nomingw_setup.exe

I installed using the defaults (to C:\Dev-Cpp)


Step 3 - Configure Bloodshed Dev C to use the already installed MinGW

Run Bloodshed Dev C

(You may end up allowing Bloodshed Dev C to use MinGW Make instead of
GNU Make)

Select the Tools -Compiler Options menu item

Under the Directories -Binaries tab add two new paths (for MinGW and
GCC libexec components):-

C:\MinGW\bin
C:\MinGW\libexe c\gcc\mingw32\3 .4.5

And voila - now you should be able to compile programs!


P.S. and voila - still not working ;-)

Please call DevCpp help desk. We are not DevCpp help desk, this

Of course; however, how can someone talk about the C language without
having a working compiler? You tell me.
It's like going on a battlefield without a rifle.

If in a battle your riffle jams, would you tell the General responsible for
tactics/strategie of the battle, or take it to a weapon shop for repair?

Depends on the army, I guess.
It shouldn't be a problem to ask a comerade soldier
to give your rifle a kick or two in a proper way.
By the time you get to the weapon shop it may be too late...

cr88, if you don't mind, can you share some of the
steps in your way of using mingw on vista?
Provided you've read my way of dealing with these, at the above,
where would I have possibly missed smth?
