I am interested in using DJGPP as a compiler... however I have some =
questions...?
I do not have any previous version of a compiler running or have run on =
my computer... It has recently been reformated...lol
I would appreciate any help in getting the compiler to work...
I went to the DJGPP homepage and used the zip picker to pick the files I =
would need...
I wanted the compiler to run C, C++ and Assembly Languages...
I picked RHIDE and Emacs because I am unsure whether I need one or =
both...
I am using an Athlon 1Gig machine with 512meg ram... this is my home =
machine...:)
The files the zip picker suggested were...
unzip32.exe to unzip the zip files =20

Total bytes to download: 54,594,520
DOWNLOAD...
I used the FTP explorer to download these files into the DJGPP folder =
that I had created in the C drive...
INSTALLATION...
Following the readme file I used the unzip32.exe to unzip all the =
files...
SET ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE...
After unzipping all the zip files, set the DJGPP environment variable to =
point to the file DJGPP.ENV in the main DJGPP installation directory and =
add its BIN subdirectory to your PATH.
For Windows 2000...
- Right-click "My Computer", then select "Properties";
- Select the "Advanced" tab, then click "Environment Variables" button;
- Edit the PATH system variable to add the DJGPP bin subdirectory;
To do this I clicked on the path variable and then clicked the edit =
button...
The computer presented me with a edit system variable box with a =
variable name and variable value...
I named the variable... Path and the variable value as =
...C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH% I clicked Ok...
- Add a new variable DJGPP and set its value to the full path name of =
the DJGPP.ENV file as explained below.
So I ...
Clik on New button...=20
Then named the variable... DJGPP and the variable value as... =
C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV Clicked ok...
Because I am using Win 2000 I don't have to reboot...
Run the go32-v2.exe program without arguments: go32-v2
It should report how much DPMI memory and swap space can DJGPP use on =
your system, like this: DPMI memory available: 8020 Kb DPMI swap space =
available: 39413 Kb
The actual numbers will vary according to amount of RAM installed on =
your system, the available disk space and the DPMI server. If the sum of =
the two numbers reported by go32-v2 is less than 4MB, read section 3.9 =
of the FAQ, "How to configure your system for DJGPP". (If you have more =
than that, but want to get the optimal performance from your system, =
read that section anyway.)
Now I run into problems because it runs for a second or less then =
quits...?
Now the big questions ..."How do I get the compiler to run...?"
Instead of editing your autoexec files and/or global environment, you =
may wish to create a djgpp shortcut instead. To do this, create a BAT =
file which has the lines below in it.
set DJGPP=3DC:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV & set PATH=3DC:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%=20
"What is a bat file and how do I create one...?"
I have checked a lot of the documentation and after this phase it goes =
on about compilation of programs... this is ok but I don't have a =
working compiler...lol
Any help appreciated... you can call me names as long as I benifit from =
the experience...
My name is Alistair and my email address is slayer_legion AT hotmail DOT com...
Thanks in advance for any help...
