im trying to debug some code so i can see whats going on. i set a breakpoint and hit debug but i keep getting this popup that says
i click yes it builds it and i hit debug again and i keep getting the same popup. what gives?Code:your project does not have enough debugging information, do you want to enable debugging and rebuild your project?
what am i doing wrong?
It happens to me too sometimes. Doesn't restarting Dev-C++ help?
Please move to C++ board.
nope
Dev-C++ is also a C compiler.Quote:

Last time it happened to me I just started debugging manually :DQuote:
nope
The reason for it is unknown, but I put my money on Bloodshed. The DevC++ project was/is left unfinished. If you check the help files, most of it is not even there. You could try looking under project settings or compiler options, but if you run a single source file you get no problem debugging it, it only seems to cause a poblem when you are attempting to debug a project. Code::blocks, also by bloodshed does not however have this issue
thanks, is code blocks good?
I wonder why did the same company start making a new IDE, if they would've just fixed some little bugs and update Dev-C++ a bit, it would be the ultimate IDE.Quote:

yeah thats a little depressing , since i really like dev-c++Quote:

Because they had made a lot of versions of Dev, form 4.80 to 4.992 which is the latest version. It was seen as a dead project, and they basicly moved on to bigger and better things.
And yes, code::blocks is ok, but takes a little while to configure
Don't make me laugh. I've tried it. Dev-C++ is far better than Code::Blocks even when Code::Blocks is the only one being developed!Quote:

Yes well that is what I have read. But to be honest maxorator I agree with you. DevC++ is far better than code::blocks. I have it, but rarely use it
well i installed code blocks and its ok, not as good as dev-c++ but it looks like i need to move on since its dead!
what compiler do most people like?
visual studio, borland, etc?
I don't think they like those compilers. They just use them. :D
BTW I hate Visual Studio, it is crap. I haven't tried Borland.
Dont, stick with Dev. yes, it has it's issues, but what compiler doesnt?
I am sticking with Dev and MSVC++2003 untill the new standards are relased in 2008/9. Then, some of the C/C++ language will change ( but very little ). So, some of the compilers we use now will report small errors. But that is a long way off yet.
To answer your other question, most use Dev or Microsoft IDE compiler systems. Few use Borland, although Borland Bulilder Studio is quite good. It is all a matter of taste
It's issues are not very serious. I'll stick to it until I have some serious problems with it.
Can't you just update your GCC executables and some libraries to get newer standards work?
That is one question I wish I knew a 100% answer for. I have emailed Bloodshed and they are yet to get back to me about this. If the company are failing to create any more patches for Dev, then I think it will just remain as it is. You could however configure it to run with another compiler, but again, this is still up in the air
I think i will stick with devc++ until i have serious issues with it. =)
Good Idea, as I said it does work ok, and in general is the best IDE compiler avaliable for windows at the present time ( in my oppionion anyway )
It is open-source. So if some Delphi programmer would be interested in developing it, he could do it. Until that, we have to wait.
Also it could be translated into C++, but it would be hard work.
Unforuntaty I do not understand Delphi. It is much the same as Assembley Language and I do not have the patience for it. But, yes like you said it really is a waiting game I am afraid
Then now is the time to learn it!
Then you can give me a hand lol!
It is much harder than C++/C put together. I am not educated enough to learn it, but I may get a book on it, as I have brought up the subject. I'l give bloodshed a run for their money
I'll try to learn the basics of Delphi too then ;)
> your project does not have enough debugging information, do you want to enable debugging and rebuild your project?
Are you building with the -g3 option?
Also... try rebuild, instead of build after you see that message.
Deal, we'll work at it together!
I'l buy a goob book
*good
this seemed to fix the problem thanksQuote:

After that , clean and rebuild your project again, and it will contain the debug information.
I did some looking around on the web and searched through several thousand archives to find out if/when they would do any more updates on it. . . I don't know for sure, but I think there was a bit of a fight between the developers. . . one even went a bit wacky. . . I found his personal web site. . . he now runs a porn site. Imagine my surprise when I visited his site from work. =(Quote:

I use Dev-C++ even though it hasn't been updated. In my opinion it is the best free IDE out there. Code::Blocks just doesn't work as well (for me).
that worked great!Quote:
