Ok, this is my problem. My friend sent me his game (C Source) he had to make for uni: Poker. He compiled in Linux, don't know what he used. Anywayz I compiled it in windows using dev c++. The problem is that it doesn't work on my computer, like the validation doesn't work, like if u enter a wrong input, it still goes through etc...Please ask anything in relation to being more specific if i haven't made myself clear enough. I can provide the source code if needed
that would be because of an error in his code, not anything your compiler does differently from his (which, if both compilers are good (which many aren't), is nothing at all).
hmm....no i dun there is an error, cos he said he tested it on his dev c++ and it didn't work too.....but it worked when he had to compile it any uni, unix....... he said something about using different flags?
that might be. But I don't see how using different compiler options would make the code behave differently (unless maybe it's a real mess and turning off some boundschecking in the compiler options makes it do something it shouldn't which as a sideeffect has something happen that he wants).
It's hard to know what's going on without seeing the source.
