Hello,
just starting to use MinGW32, the Windows 32bit version of GNU GCC/G++.
Using the Slickedit GNU GCC Project Wizard, I set up a "HelloWorld" makefile project workspace and added the MinGW32 executable directories in the work-space PATH environment variable, i.e. set PATH=C:\MinGW\bin;C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin;%PATH%
It worked. As I hadn't specified INCLUDE directories, executing g++ -v -c HelloWorld.cpp showed these were being searched:
#include "..." search starts here:
#include <...> search starts here:
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include/c++
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include/c++/mingw32
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include/c++/backward
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/../../../../include
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include-fixed
End of search list.
Normalized, these are:
c:\mingw\lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include/c++
c:\mingw\lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include/c++/mingw32
c:\mingw\lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include/c++/backward
c:\mingw\include
c:\mingw\lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include
c:\mingw\lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/include-fixed
Should I include the 'mingw32' 'backward' and 'include-fixed' in the auto-tagging list for the 'GCC-4.5.0-mingw32' C/C++ compiler configuration that Slickedit automatically added to the C/C++ compiler types in the auto-tagging dialog? When identically named types are defined in multiple include files, which file 'wins' in Slickedit's auto-tagging? Or will there be multiple definitions present in the tag file and offered as completions? I really only want completions from 1 definition.
Once I have sorted this matter out, I suppose the best thing to do is to copy the GNU project type template to a new 'MinGW32' template in the 'Customize Projects' dialog, and then edit the work-space environment options to include the particular MinGW executable paths I need to be set on every such work-space.
What do I do about GDB? The Slickedit version is 7.1, the MinGW is 7.2, both have mingw32 in the version type: is there anything special about the Slickedit version?
