Subject: [Dev-C++] Converting *.lib files to *.a files




Hello all,

Is there a way(or a tool available) to convert *.lib
files to *.a files? I did google for it and found
nothing usefull.

If yes, kindly give me pointers...
If no, please let me know.

TIA

Siva Chandra

First of all - stop using goto everywhere. You'r logic isn't advanced
enough to need it.

Second - it isn't enough to do
char* quizName = new char;
cin.getline(quizName,123);

new char allocates a single character! If you want a string, you should
either usse "new char[<my_string_length>] or look into the string class.

As long as you do "new char;" you can't expect _any_ part of your program
to work!

Hello,

Can anybody tell me if there is a way to use VBX controls or  (may be better) where can I get a library of controls to be used with the c++ compiler to create windows programs? 

Thanks, 

Jorge
