[Q]Full screen editor and header files related!
neo1691:
As promised i just used turbo c for the last semester as that was a compulsion in our college!
As my first semester exams just got over today, i reformated everything and reeinstalled windows 7 so that i can get a free developing environment for developing!
I have set up code::blocks with gcc compiler.
My questions are:
1) How to get full screen of just the editor (ie where we type the source)
2) I made some header files(.h) one file had the function initialize_stack(). I used it and its job got over. Then i made another header file and it contained the function initialize_queue(). when i included this(second) only header file in a program. When i started to type init (to complete initialize_queue) the dropdown prompt showed initialize_stack.
In short: why are all the functions being prompted when i am just including one header file?
3) [off topic] why does exit(0) function does not work in gcc?? it used to work well in the crap turbo c?
oBFusCATed:
1) In recent build there is a feature called minimal perspective and you can quickly switch to it by double clicking the tab of the file. It is not full screen but it is quite close to it.
2) Because most of the times it is better to see all function names available
3) It works without problems, here. If it doesn't ask a MinGW support site, here we support C::B only, not all the compilers it users to build code.

Well that was fast! :)
1)I am using 10.05 build!
2)Is there a way to change that? I mean just see the functions that are available for only the header files that are included and not all?? thats not a big issue though! ;) but suppose in that above example if i accidently use the function of stack in queue program i might get a compile error!!!
3)So i am switching from turbo c to code::blocks! so which compiler should suit me the most?? please suggest as i have just started programming and i have used turbo c in the whole of my short programming career! :)
EDIT: Double clicking on the tab is not working!! :(
oBFusCATed:
1) it doesn't work in 10.05, you need a nightly build
3) mingw is okay...

okay installing the nightly build right away!!
Do i need to get setup the mingw comipler before installing code::blocks?? or is it in built?
I had a tough time setting it up on windows vista long back!
EDIT: Mingw compiler is not there in the list of compilers??
