Re: HELP PLEASE!!! by guest 2009-12-07 07:21:23 Reply: You probably doesn't have permission to save on that folder. Try executing Dev C++ as Administrator and check on the task manager if your program is being executed on the "Process" tab. Kill the process if it's running, then try again.
HELP PLEASE!!! by guest 2009-08-10 06:32:25 Reply: I use Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 and Allegro 4.2.2. Every time I compile a program, it comes up with this:

and you should compile a program that sends a ton of circles in random places

I tried to compile this sourcecode (I got it from a tutorial on http://www.cppgameprogramming.com/cgi/nav.cgi?page=allegbasics):

-----------------------------------

#include <allegro.h>

int main(){

allegro_init();
install_keyboard();
set_gfx_mode( GFX_AUTODETECT, 640, 480, 0, 0);

readkey();

return 0;

}
END_OF_MAIN();

-----------------------------------

And that gave me this compiler log:

-----------------------------------

-----------------------------------

And I have absolutely no idea why it won't work.
Can anybody help me??

Now I used allegro 4.2.0 and as someone said in an earlier post I also tried to install version 4.1.16 but that gave the same result.

Re: precompiled version of allgro by mol (michal molhanec net) 2006-01-13 18:13:24 Reply: Yes, that is completely the same devpak as this (in fact the download link from this page and from webupdate leads to the same URL).
precompiled version of allgro by guest 2006-01-13 17:36:08 Reply: if you got Dev-Cpp do this:

go to Tools -> Check for Updates/Packages -> select "devpaks.org" for server and then Check of Updates..

when the list of avaible updates is complite, you can search there for Allegro package and it will download it an install it.

Re: Re: Problem with 4.2 Beta DevPak by guest 2005-08-08 21:04:54 Reply: Thanks. yeah. I put the rest function in on another plaform. do you know where those symbols sort_out_putc and getc are located?
Re: Problem with 4.2 Beta DevPak by guest 2005-08-08 21:01:03 Reply: Your code works for me (except that Allegro has no sleep function, it should be replaced with rest).
However you can try 4.1.16: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/devpaks/allegro-4.1.16.DevPak?download
Problem with 4.2 Beta DevPak by guest 2005-08-08 19:41:01 Reply: I posted this to DEV-CPP as well. However, I have tried various versions of the devpaks and found that this problem shows up in 4.18 adn continues through. and I can't use 4.17 because it hangs when running programs.

Hi Everyone,

I hope that someone can help with this. I am getting a link error on all of my Allegro programs. I have not experienced this problem on a windows machine I have at home using Dev-CPP, but I am on 2 machines at work.

I am compiling the following code:

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Game Programming All In One, Second Edition
// Source Code Copyright (C)2004 by Jonathan S. Harbour
// Chapter 3 - Circles Program
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

#include "allegro.h"

void main(void)
{
int x,y,radius;
int red,green,blue,color;

//initialize some stuff
allegro_init();
install_keyboard();
install_timer();
srand(time(NULL));

//initialize video mode to 640x480
int ret = set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED, 640, 480, 0, 0);
if (ret != 0) {
allegro_message(allegro_error);
return;
}

//display screen resolution
textprintf(screen, font, 0, 0, 15,
"Circles Program - %dx%d - Press ESC to quit",
SCREEN_W, SCREEN_H);

//wait for keypress
while(!key[KEY_ESC])
{
//set a random location
x = 30 + rand() % (SCREEN_W-60);
y = 30 + rand() % (SCREEN_H-60);
radius = rand() % 30;

//set a random color
red = rand() % 255;
green = rand() % 255;
blue = rand() % 255;
color = makecol(red,green,blue);

//draw the pixel
circle(screen, x, y, radius, color);

sleep(25);
}

//end program
allegro_exit();
}

END_OF_MAIN();

I get the following compiler log:

Compiler: Default compiler
Building Makefile: "F:\Game Design\dev-cpp\chapter03\Circles\Makefile.win"
Executing make...
make.exe -f "F:\Game Design\dev-cpp\chapter03\Circles\Makefile.win" all

main.o:main.c:(.text+0xfd2): undefined reference to `_imp___sort_out_getc'
main.o:main.c:(.text+0x1006): undefined reference to `_imp___sort_out_putc'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make.exe: *** [Circles.exe] Error 1

Execution terminated

I am using the following versions:

Allegro 4.2.0 beta 4
Dev-CPP 4.9.9.2

BTW, I tried Allegro 4.0 and that devpak does not install the alleg40.dll in the correct place and even after I move it myself, the program will compile, but hangs during execution. On my other machine it works great.

I do not know where the sort_out_getc and sort_out_putc come from and so I do not know which lib is at fault.

Regards,

Charles

Where to get the prcompiled version of Allegro DLL and GUI and GUI Sources by Thomas Schönfelder (tschoenfelder web de) 2005-07-28 15:10:48 Reply: Hello !

I'm looking for a precompiled version of Allegro DLL and Allegro GUI. Additional I'm looking for the sources of Allegro GUI.

Where to get it? Can you send me the asked files per Email.

It is tschoenfelder(AT).web.de

Use '@' instead of 'AT'.

Thank's for your work

Sorry, some late, but I've seen the link for download. But it is in DevPack format. How to expand it. I need it in zip format.
