Thread: ok so whats up with this???

ok so im working with Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 and im running Windaz XP SP2
here is my code...

Code:

#include <windows.h>

int WINAPI
WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst, 
	HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
	LPSTR lpCmdLine,
        int nCmdShow)
{
	MessageBox (NULL, "Hello World!", 
                "YOOOOOO", MB_OK);
	return 0;
}

it is giving me this error when i try to compile and run...

The system cannot find the file specified

and here is my compile log...

Code:

Compiler: Default compiler
Building Makefile: "C:\Temp\Nathan\Programming\C\FirstWindows\Makefile.win"
Executing  make...
make.exe -f "C:\Temp\Nathan\Programming\C\FirstWindows\Makefile.win" all
Execution terminated

what is happening??? how to solve this????????
thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!

That build log is inconsistent with yoru reported error, since it does not specify which fiel the system coudl not find. Please post the entire source code and the entire build log, even the stuff you dont hink is important.

Thats is copied and paster from my compiler and my compile log and that is all my source code...
thats everything...

Looks like your project isn't right. May be easiest to just re-create a new project.

This may also be a good time to move to another IDE. Dev-C++ hasn't been worked on since '05. You can however update the tools used by the IDE: http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...roup_id=229698

Visual Studio Express 2008 is free, I recommend you downlaod that. I persoanlly havent noticed any difference between teh express verion i use at home nad the full version i use at work.

sure i will try that out ASAP
thanks guys!!!

oh yea will visual studio write out the .exe file for me also?
