Title: Using windows visual styles.
Post by: Plazzmex on January 29, 2009, 07:01:18 pm

Hello.
I have a problem.
Ive maked my prog to use Windows visual styles like described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms997646.aspx#xptheming_topic4

But in Dev-Cpp with GCC MinGW compiler it works perfect, but with CodeBlock it doesnt. It disables all the controls and popups in my program and that's it.

What am I doing wrong ?

What Compiler are you using with Code::Blocks build?
Note, this is needed info on nearly every question; please state it!

FYI: The "XP Look and feel" plugin helps to handle this problem; but, I have never did any fine tuning on it.

If you are using another installation of MinGW GCC that might be the cause.
NOTE: To use more than one copy of MinGW GCC, there MUST NOT be an C:\MinGW folder where C is any drive letter.

I suggest turning on Full Compiler logging under Code::Blocks and whatever dev-cpp can do to get the commands passed to the Compiler; then, compare the commands to see where the problem exists.

Delete all the MinGW package, and install only one package.
Post the compiler output message if problems still exist.

Nothing.. The compiler compiles it perfect, without any warning messages or errors..
all clear.
