I am new to Ultimate++ and wanted to give it a try but I encountered a problem with the IDE and possibly the installer as well. The latter concern is really the crux of my question.
My system:
Athlon 3000XP
512 MB RAM
Windows 98 SE (your documentation says it supports Windows 98, don't laugh at me)
2GB of hard drive space available on a 40GB D: drive.
First this:
"The PSAPI.DLL file is linked to missing export NTDLL:DLL:NtAllocateVirtualMemory"
Then immediately afterwards:
"D:\upp\theide.exe
A device attached to the system is not functioning"
This the error I get when I try to install using upp-win-511.exe. It gets through the "storing files" section then goes to the next progress bar, and about halfway through it gives me the errors.
At first I thought it was the fact that I didn't have an NT windows OS like 2k or XP. But I do have an ntdll.dll file in my C:/windows/system/ folder.
I think it occurs during the installation b/c the installer tries to start the IDE after it's finished. I say this b/c the files do in fact seem to get copied to D:/upp/, but the IDE gives me the same exact message if I try to start it, then promptly quits.
So the question is, is this a problem with my computer, or is it a bug with U++? And if it's a bug, is it a problem with the IDE alone, or would you think I could still use the files provided without the IDE? I plan to use U++ for developing an application in VS C++ 6.0.

I'm no expert but because nobody answered quickly, so...

Quote: | Normal TheIDE ships with MSC++ debugger enabled and it needs Win2000/XP. It is however possible to compile TheIDE without this support - it will support mingw only debugger then.
I will upload this "fixed" theide.exe to sf.net soon.
Other issue of course is that due to stability issues, I cannot imagine using WinME for serious development Smile
Note that this is just the problem of TheIDE (and debugger). Apps should run on anything since Win95.

This also might be useful:

Toolhelp Functions
Win32 implementation on Windows 95/98 provides some functions that enable you to enumerate
the processes running in the system, module list, and so on. These functions are provided by
KERNEL32.DLL.
The functions are CreateToolHelp32 SnapShot, Process32First, Process32Next, and others.
These functions are not implemented under Windows NT’s implementation of KERNEL32.
The programs that use these functions implicitly will not start at all under Windows NT.
The Windows NT 4.0 SDK comes with a new DLL called PSAPI.DLL, which provides the
equivalent functionality.
The header file for this PSAPI.H is also included with the Windows NT 4.0 SDK. Windows 2000
has this toolhelp functionality built into KERNEL32.DLL.
