Dear all,
When use Dev C++ for writing C and compile, there is so called dependency dropped.
Do you know why there is the reason and how to solve, use other compiler??
Code:#include <stdio.h>main()
{
int x;
char cArray[5];
char cName[] = "Olivia";
printf("\nCharacter array not initialized:\n");
for ( x = 0; x < 5; x++ )
printf("Element %d's contents are %d\n", x, cArray[x]);
printf("\nInitialized character array:\n");
for ( x = 0; x < 6; x++ )
printf("%c", cName[x]);
} //end main
Dev-c++ is an old, buggy and unmaintained IDE.
Basically, the IDE decided to ........ on it's own makefile.
Try this, which is newer, possibly less buggy, and maintained.

Thanks, I would try it! :redface:Quote:

Did you try naming the file with the normal extension of ".c" or ".cpp"?
Edit: Many IDEs use the file extension to decide how to treat the file.
The GUI image shows a file with no file extension on it.

I try to rename the file with cpp extension name, however the problem still exist :(Quote:

Do you use an automatic makefile or your own?
I just make the file on my own, by the way, how to use automatic makefile as i m new to programming :)Quote:

int main(void)
{
int x;
char cArray[5];
char cName[] = "Olivia";
printf("Character array not initialized:\n");
for(x = 0; x < 5; ++x)
{
printf("Element %d contents are %c\n", x, cArray[x]);
printf("Initialized character array:\n");
}
for(x = 0; cName[x] != '\0'; ++x)
{
printf("%c", cName[x]);
}
getchar();
return 0;
}
I don't think you understand the question being asked. First of all, look at this example makefile:Quote:

This is input for a program called "make", which is a part of the IDE, responsible for managing the other programs that create or destroy executeables. An "automatic makefile" is the makefile that the IDE will create, unless you provide an alternate. Unless you clicked on Project Properties and provided the location of your makefile, you did not provide an alternate. I'm guessing that you did not write your own makefile, as an inexperienced person wouldn't know where to begin, and Makefile.win is the name Dev-C++ gives its automatic makefile.
So with that misunderstanding cleared up, please give the full text of the linker error you are getting now. Since it comes from the Exercise2 file, I want to see that too.
I have my guesses about what is going on, but I just want to see what's in there first. Whatever is in there isn't being used. So the ultimate solution might be to remove all of the files in the project except for the main that you want to compile.
