Thread: DevC++ Resource Scripting

I have been coding the .rc for Borland C when I compile same .rc on DevC++ it gives me phrase Error in .rc...
So what are the KEYWORDS and RULEZ of DEVC++ resource compiler , I tried there web site but they tell nothing about it

>>phrase Error in .rc<<

Help us to help you - if you have a specific problem then please quote the exact error message and the line that error message refers to.

*************

MSDN: Resource definition statements.

Differences are minor but generally:

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#if !defined IDC_STATIC
#define IDC_STATIC -1
#endif
#include "your_resource_defines.h"

in your resource script for MinGW.

I think every body knows "prase error" compiler just tells me line number and tells me prase error in xxx.rc where xxx is name of your .rc file for example:

Code:

IDD_ABOUT DIALOG DISCARDABLE  0, 0, 239, 66
STYLE DS_MODALFRAME | WS_POPUP | WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU
CAPTION "My About Box"
FONT 8, "MS Sans Serif"
BEGIN
    DEFPUSHBUTTON   "&OK",IDOK,174,18,50,14
    PUSHBUTTON      "&Cancel",IDCANCEL,174,35,50,14
    GROUPBOX        "About this program...",IDC_STATIC,7,7,225,52
    CTEXT           "An example program showing how to use Dialog Boxes\r\n\r\nby theForger",
                    IDC_STATIC,16,18,144,33
END

the DevC++ compiler gives me error hilighting line

Code:

STYLE DS_MODALFRAME | WS_POPUP | WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU

and say prase error thats all

By the way by dev C++ ver is 4.9.9.1

>>I think every body knows "prase error"<<

Nobody recognises "prase" errors, not even windres.

My previous suggestion, when applied, will fix that 'prase' error.
