How can I run a program with command line arguments?
There are three different methods to run a program with command line arguments.
-
You can pre-set command line arguments. Under Tool|Command Line Arguments, you can put your command line arguments in four entries. Each entry can have multiple command line arguments.
-
You can type the command such as
"filename.ch arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 arg5 arg6" in the output pane.
-
In the debug command pane at the debug prompt, type
debug> start arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4 arg5 arg6
If I want to use, say MingW as a compiler in Windows,
what would I need to setup for ChIDE to invoke it?
First, you need to set the
pathes for commands, header files, and libraries
in the start-up file _chrc in the home directory for Mingw.
You can modify the pathes similar to those for Visual C++ settings.
Then in the file CHHOME/chide/cpp.properties,
change the commands
"cl", "link",
and
"nmake"
in the
the following lines to the eqvivalent MingW commands.
cc=ch cl
ccc=ch cl
link=ch link
make.command=ch nmake
You may also need to change relevant command line options.
When a Windows application program is executed, it gives the
error message "RegisterClass() failed: Cannot register window class."
You need to unregister a registered class by calling the Windows API
UnregisterClass() as shown by programs in the directory
CHHOME/toolkit/demos/OpenGL/Windows/.
Where should I post my questions and suggestions?
For questions and suggestions related to Ch and ChIDE, post it in
