variable value detection under Wine

[Ran]

Hello,

I use Pelle's C (ver 7) in Ubuntu under Wine, but when i want to see
the value of a variable with the fprint.... then I end the program and
everything closes down and I can't see the results of the variables.
Help anyone

Since this is working on pure Windows you will have to report the issue to the WINE development.

Anything that works on regular Windows and not under WINE is a WINE issue.

Use OutputDebugString() with debugger.

Thanks a lot.... I will try the OutputDebugString() and report to Wine.

Use OutputDebugString() with debugger.

I have tried to collect some infos to OutputDebugString.
Theres is a little helper function on this site: http://unixwiz.net/techtips/outputdebugstring.html
May be anyone can tell me why the crlf in this function is usefull.
I have attached a little test project.

If one would like to use that in release mode, use DebugView (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896647).

czerny,

Thanks, but I did find that i can see the variables with Pelle's C in this way:

When I run the Ide and there is a "fprint...." inside the code then Pelle's Ide closes and
shows me nothing.
So I use the Ide to program and execute.....
Then I go to the exe file of the program that Pelle's ide has produced and run the program
from there. Well when the program closes here it shows the black window for a second
so that I can read the variables.

I also did use (years ago) Visual C 6.0 with the Vs6sp6 pack and it works fine too !!!!
But for C I use Pelle's C because I got big problems with the runtime dll's from VC.
When people got a Visual Basic program on their PC, my runtime dll didn't work
anymore because the Microsoft dll's are not compatible with each-other.
So then I moved (had to) to Pelle's C.

Sorry, I don't understand.
Does it work or does it not work for you?

[czerny]

shows me nothing.

What do you use? fprintf or printf?

Can you provide a little example?

[Ran]

Czerny,
Yes I works, but not running the execute from the Ide,
only from the stand alone exe that is made by the Ide.
example:
printf ("Decimals yl : %d\n", yl);

And in main I have:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <io.h>

Czerny,

i program under Wine (ubuntu) with SDL and Opengl.
It works fine.
And is workable.
But when I want to distribute a program I go to
Win 7 (second OS on laptop) and do a Rebuid and make a exe.

Greetings,
Fred

[Ran]

Thanks timovjl,

But with SDL and Opengl I work under a console window and not windows.
But yes I could use it and include windows.h.

Greetings and thanks,
Ran

Does this by any chance have anything to do with simply adding something like...

Code Select Expand

system("pause");

just before you exit your program?

That will only work on Windows platforms and it's rather heavy, but you can easily code a simple cross-platform alternative (macro or function) behaving somewhat similarly...

Code Select Expand


...
void pressENTER( void )
{
    int c;

    printf( "press ENTER... ");
    fflush( stdout );
    while ( '\n' != (c=getchar()) && EOF != c )
        ;    /* void */
}
...
int main( void )
{
    ...
    if ( error ) {
        puts( "*** error" );
        pressENTER();
    }
    ...
}

Then I go to the exe file of the program that Pelle's ide has produced and run the program
from there. Well when the program closes here it shows the black window for a second
so that I can read the variables.
...

With mouse right click in wine console select options not to close window after program ends.

[Ran]

Yes, timovjl that was the one I was looking for......
Thanks a lot, it works fine.....
Now I have the time to read every variable....

And thank you too, of course migf1....
