- I am trying to program a game that was origianlly going to be for DOS until
- I realised that my Turbo C/C++ compiler for Windows only compiled for windows.
- Now, I have to find a way of using basic text windows or something to output
- my text card game.
- I thought I had found the perfect solution when I found functions like
- cprintf and window and clrscr, etc. in the conio.h library however, they
- won't work.
-
- #include<conio.h>
-
- int main(void)
- {
- clrscr();
- window(10, 10, 20, 20);
- cprintf("Hello world\r\n");
- getch();
- return 0;
- }
-
- This program gives me these warnings and errors:
- Warning WINDOW.C 6: Call to function 'window' with no prototype in function
- main
- Warning WINDOW.C 7: Call to function 'cprintf' with no prototype in function
- main
- Linker Error: Undefined symbol _cprintf in module WINDOW.C
- Linker Error: Undefined symbol _window in module WINDOW.C
-
- I think I have all my directories set up right, (all my other functions
- work fine with calls to other libraries).
-
- Might this have something to do with me running all this under Win95? Is there
- something else I need to do to get these to work? I tried putting in
- prototypes for these functions but that only got rid of the warnings.
-
- Please help me....
-
- Nick.
