Hi,
I posted this to the compilers faq, but i think this is the better place.
I used to be a Dev-Cpp user, also having the borland compiler embedded in some editors (e. g. "Programmers Notepad" or "JFE").
I'm not completely satisfied with both, because there is always something annoying:
- Dev-Cpp produces often system hang-ups, especially when debugging
- Borland Compiler is rather old and is missing some features (e.g. "ddk")
but is has an excellent and stable console debugger.
After testing Beta5 release I'm planning to switch completely to C::Bjavascript:emoticon(':wink:')

I finally now to what wanted to mention:
With MinGw 3.4.2 all is fine.
With the compiler download MinGw 3.1.0 there is a problem in "windres" options:
"-J" is not supported and "-I" (involved in the "$res_includes" macro) has the meaning of "-J".
This is the same with the dev-cpp compiler installation (3.3.1).
Since I dont't want to have multiple installations of MinGw, I had to leave out the "$res_includes" macro and change the setting for resource compiler to:
"$rescomp -i $file -I rc -o $resource_output -O coff"
Is there a way for me to edit the macro?
And there is a little feature request:
1)
Is there a chance to define a macro for configuring tools, so that you can pass a highlighted/marked string?
This would be usefull when configuring win32api.hlp as a tool.
2)
GDB support multiple formats of watches (char, dec, hex, oct). It would be great, if you could choose the display format of each watch!
Yannis, I must say that you are really doing a good job. I appreciative that!javascript:emoticon(':D')
Very Happy
