From: curtis_c@lxe.com (Curtis, Craig M.) Subject: MINGW32 Question on test.c 5 Oct 1998 17:36:17 -0700 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: "'gnu-win32@cygnus.com'" I tried compiling the test.c sample file that came in the sample zip file using two methods. I used the jamfile with jam and it worked fine, by allowing me to type in a string to be output in the messagebox. But if I try compiling it using the method outlined in the tutorial, it does not allow me to enter a string at the console and it displays a messagebox with garbage in it. The commands I entered in when it did not work are as follows: gcc -c test.o test.c gcc -o test.exe test.o -mwindows Is there some special mode, model, or library I need to link with to make it work when typing it in by hand? Thanks, >Craig Curtis - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
