I reinstalled about four times and recompiled and it still doesn't work with version Dev-cpp 4.9.8.0. If you want I can show you screenshots of exactly what I did. I don't know if it would help.
How I installed it:
-Installed in C Drive (Hard-drive)
-Installed Dev Pack
-I did it two different ways:
-Drag Manually
{
-Dragged template into the template folder
-Dragged examples into the example folder
-Dragged the dbpro include files in the include folder
}
Drag and have it put it in the folders automatically:
{
Drag to c drive and answer yes
}
-Opened hello world example
-recompiled
-Check this size and they were about the same:
-92.6 Original
-92.1 Recompiled
-Tested to see if original works when I drag it into the plugin-user folder and it worked
-Tested the recompiled version and it doesn't
Don't know if I am doing anything wrong, because I have uninstalled and reinstalled about ten times with different versions and everything.
I know it isn't the Dark Basic Professional version, because the original dll file worked.
I know it isn't the code because it is the same code that worked for you.
I have no clue what it could be.
The only problem I am having is the error message:
"Can't understand command at line..."
There is one last test I could try. If you could send your stable version of Dev C++ with everything already installed in a .rar or .zip file, or you could show me step by step of how you installed it and display all the specs of your computer and the programs it might end up working.
I am trying my best to pin point my problem. I will try a different version of Dark Basic Professonal.
Some other information is that with the latest version of Dev C++ doesn't have the same string table problem. It just has the same problem as the older version. I installed it from the site given in the posts above.
Specs:
Dell Computer
Windows XP Home Edition with service pack 2
Dev C++ Version 4.9.8.0
Dark Basic Professional Version 6.6
Template Version 3
I have also tested it on another computer.
I think I was able to get the previous template to work. I will try different versions of the template and see if I can get one to work with the hello world example.
EDIT: Tried different versions, no difference.
Let me know of anything that might help.
