porting DevC++ to linux

Question

Hi folks,

I wanted to use DevC++ on Linux, so I've started it with wine and everything is OK until it came to run the file.

The C file compiles well and a .exe files generated that is able to run on Linux (without wine)

$ file '/media/F6AC746BAC74286F/Dev-Cpp/work/hello_on_nix.exe' 
/media/F6AC746BAC74286F/Dev-Cpp/work/hello_on_nix.exe: PE32 executable for MS Windows (console) Intel 80386 32-bit
$ '/media/F6AC746BAC74286F/Dev-Cpp/work/hello_on_nix.exe' 
Hello World!

But the problem is when I come to run this file from inside the IDE, it shows a very small window that doesn't show any thing and if i close it, i get the entire IDE to get closed.

Can you help?

Answer 1

Have you run wine from the command line? Are there "FIXME" warnings on the command line?

Answer 2

Have you looked at Anjuta or Kdevelop?
