Problem with Dev-C++

I tried to import my source code for a working and compiliable game (in VS) to Dev-C++, but when I compile it gives me an error on all of my #include "______' lines to the header files of my game. Anyone have a solution?

Well, what are the errors (or at least a few of them)?
:==-_ Why don't the voices just leave me alone?! _-==:
that ' was a typo :P its " ".

The error is:

1 C:\Dev-Cpp\Snake\Gameloop.h:3, from Snake\GameLopp.cpp In file included from Snake/Gameloop.h:3, from Snake/GameLopp.cpp


all of the cpp files are in that dir Dev-Cpp/Snake/ and the other errors are the same except different file names.




could it maybe be a problem with having too many includes being repetitive? because there are a few other include statements that aren't giving me errors

That line tells where the error is, is there another line after that for your errors?
I can't find anything wrong with it.. It compiles without errors in VS... but I in DevCpp it finds errors in some of the header files...

Here are the errors

I know they're just warnings, but try putting newlines at the end of all those files...I've had warnings in Dev before that disallowed compilation (even though they were *just* warnings and shouldnt've done that) and once I fixed them, the program compiled. Also, go to Tools>Editor Options and check the box marked "ensure that file ends with newline"

I don't know if that will do anything, but you never know...

Another thing I noticed: there's Gameloop.h and GameLopp.cpp...if those are supposed to be header and implementation, you might have a problem in the files if the name isn't the same...I'd check to make sure the right includes are there.

Also check and make sure that your files have inclusion guards to prevent multiple inclusion...didn't see that as an error so they're probably there, but I figured I'd mention it.

What do you mean by "newline"?
I think he means that you should press enter at the end your source file, so that there is a blank (new) line at the end of the code. ^_^
:P Thats what I thought, just making sure.
Yeah...I don't really know what the whole point behind the newline thing is (does anyone else? I'd like to know), but I have seen/experienced/gotten really mad becuase sometimes things will not compile in Dev even though it just gives "warnings." I thought the idea was to let you know, "hey, dude, you did something wrong, but it's not that bad" and compile anyway....technology :/

Anyway, ranting aside, yes, just meant that there should be an empty line past your final line of code. Hope that's all that is wrong...
