[fxscintilla-users] RE: example seems to not work

[David Hisel]

I'm using cygwin and using FOX-1.1.38.  My program compiles just fine, and 
it even runs, but no window shows up, any suggestions? 

Here's the code:
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
// sc.cpp
//
// Time-stamp: <2003/10/14 16:15:22, address@hidden> (s/trash@/david@/) 

// cygwin> uname -ro
// 1.5.5(0.94/3/2) Cygwin 

// FOX-1.1.38
// (./configure --disable-shared --prefix=/usr; make; make install;
//  ln -s /usr/lib/libFOX-1.1.a /usr/lib/libfox.a;
//  ln -s /usr/lib/libFOX-1.1.la /usr/lib/libfox.la)
#include <fox/fx.h> 

// FXScintilla-1.53 (./configure --prefix=/usr;make;make install)
#include <fxscintilla/Scintilla.h>
#include <fxscintilla/FXScintilla.h> 

using namespace FX; 

// compile this example with:
// g++ -o sc.exe -O2 -mwindows -e _mainCRTStartup sc.cpp -lfxscintilla -lfox 
-lcomctl32
int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
FXApp application("FXScintilla"); 

application.init(argc, argv);

FXMainWindow *win =
  new FXMainWindow(&application, "FXScintilla Example"); 

// Instantiate an FXScintilla widget
FXScintilla *scint =
  new FXScintilla(win, NULL, 0, LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y); 

// The Scintilla programming interface is through messages
// à la Windows (see scintilla/doc/ScintillaDoc.html)
scint->sendMessage(SCI_STYLESETFONT, STYLE_DEFAULT, (long)"Courier New");
scint->sendMessage(SCI_STYLESETSIZE, STYLE_DEFAULT, (long)10);
scint->sendMessage(SCI_STYLECLEARALL, 0, 0); 

application.create();
win->show(PLACEMENT_DEFAULT);
return   application.run();
}
// ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 

when I run sc.exe, focus is taken from my rxvt, but no window shows up. 

Am I compiling this correctly? (see comments for compile cmd line)
Are any code statements out of order? 

Any suggestions? 

Thanks,
