Hi, I am new in U++ C++, OOP and GUI programming. I use Window environment most of the time, I used SVR4 10 year back, still try Linux on and off. I am trying to develop application for multiplanform and multilingual.
Just downloaded U++ 5485 on my netbook 1.6GHz, 2GB RAM, multipartitioned harddisk 120GB. Windows XP SP3 with VC++ Express 2010 and Windows SDK7, MinGW build 2012-10-12.
Tried TheIde with MinGW setting using gcc. First tried U++6.05 download from Cnet. After a few days realised 6.05 outdated, so download directly from U++ 5485.
As with 6.0.5 U++ first build I did not get the exe popup whatever example I build. I always set myAppy directory to G: drive (same as VC2010ex project directory). MinGW and Upp on D:.
BUGs???
1. When I modified an example, added a function without completing it (eg. function(i) without the i) in U++ or Upp. Then switch context to Firefox search for the information on the function. To my surprise I was not able to switch back. U++ seem to hang. "System Internal" process explore shows that my CPU was 48 to 50% utilised, it shows that the Upp and gdb was taken up all these CPU cycles. I was not buildiing anything just edit and switch windows. I had to kill that U++ process. This happened a few times, once it took 100% CPU and followed by a Blue screen. I managed to repeat this problem especially I use ctrl-space to bring the popup list of function without completing it.
2. Theide also created a \MyApp in my D: drive. It keep all the intermediate file there while my source and package in G: as defined in setup, Why D:\MyApp??
Other questions
3. Why the appl package (file) can not be modified, such that I can change the setting from MinGW to VC++??
4. In Win32 WindowProc() is where the event handling capture, in U++ where to do that? In particular I want to detect return key while the user entering text in edit box or the user click the add button. (not sure how Qt or Wxwidget do it either)
I try to stick to U++ so that program I create will be able run on both Linux and Windows (without modification, may need to recompile in the two environment for the release, right?
Thanks in advance.

Using mingw is problematic - it is sort of deprecated. Using Win32 SDK is the preferred way for windows U++ development.

That is weird, it should have asked where to put it.

Not sure I understand this question well; compiler specific settings are deliberately decoupled from the project files so that you can move the project between compilers and platforms without sources being affected.

I guess you are searching for "Key" virtual method here...

Yes... except that you cannot that much easily release compiled code for Linux - that is not U++ specific, that is "Linux wide" problem...

Thanks Mirek,
Thanks for all the ponters, some I need futher clearification.
Before I carry on, I would like to correct some information I put up.
"6.0.5 U++ first build I did not get the exe popup whatever example I build. I always set myAppy directory to G: drive (same as VC2010ex project directory). MinGW and Upp on D:." This happened to Upp 5485. The example package setting using MSC10. I saw no compiler error nor link error. Just wonder what did I setup wrongly.
Build environment as in Upp setup.
Builder MSC10
Compiler name: cl <- defult empty. no diff.
External debugger: <empty>
Default debug info level: Full
use Blitz all static. Debug Options : -Od
Release mode default: Use BLITZ , all static, Optimezed for speed: -O2-GS Optimized for size: -O1 -GS others default empty.
Execution path directory

Rebuild all output

nterJob.cpp Windows.cpp Win32.cpp TrayIconWin32.cpp TrayIconX11.cpp Update.cpp CtrlUtil.cpp LNGCtrl.cpp Ch.cpp
There were errors. (0:00.23) <--- where is the error? Is it in all the above original source???
On BUGS???
1. So I better off using MSC10 rather than MinGW gcc?
2. upp5485 MyApp appears in d:\upp\out\MyApps. All Intermediate files debugs .o goes in .\core\, .\Ctrlcore\, \.MSC10.Debug.., etc. My original setup directory and source is in g:\workarea3\UppMyApps and g:\Workarea3\UppExamples. Does it default to d:\upp\out everytime I select an example package for compile??
3. Please show example of what you mean.
4. I used to modified / Add / Delete a few line in Windows program in VC3 for some key intercep on GUI, such that when user click Add button or press enter in Line edit field, will be intercep to same routine. I have no clue about key virtual method please show me how to do it in Upp. (If too long send me private message).
5. In Linux are you referring to the distro base, RH, Debian, Slackware or KDE, Gnome, QT, Wxwiget GUI base? I know all there contribute to interoperation. Now I have another GUI is Upp to add on rigit??
Thanks you are very helpful. My concept in OOP is very basic, class, inheritant, polymorphic still not fully grasp.
