Thread: System information.

What files does it say that you are missing?

and a way to get the current Windows version being used (I had a way to do it that said I was on NT?)

Often, newer versions of a program are reported as older versions so as not to break existing programs. Windows XP is reported as NT to some programs, because that's what it's ultimately derived from (as opposed to 95/98/ME). Opera can report itself as Internet Explorer or Firefox, because some web pages "require" one of those browsers, and refuse to display if the browser is "Opera". Modern CPUs are occasionally still reported as i586s (Pentiums), etc.

That looks like it's an application intended to use MFC, whcih I don't think is part of dev-c++.

No, it isn't.

You could download the free Express edition of MSVC. Or you could search around the internet for some other code.

If you "found the right files", then you should have a CString template declaration somewhere in them. I suspect you didn't get ALL the files you need.

CString is an MFC type.

You may have found and downloaded afxwin.h, etc, but that doesn't mean that your compiler can now compile MFC programs. You still need some libraries, etc. I'd download MSVC Express if you really want to compile that code. Or better yet look elsewhere.

Or maybe you can get someone on this board to compile it for you, someone with MSVC. I can't help you there.

That's assuming that you just want to run it, not use it in your own code.
