January 02, 2005 using stdprn with -A and -mn compiler options | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
I am writing C programs for execution from Windows 2000's command line. stdprn (and stdaux) are defined in stdio.h only if __STDC__ and __NT__ are not. I want to compile for ANSI (-A) and use large long ints and long doubles, which require -mn, So _STDC__ and __NT__ ARE defined, and I can not print with fprintf(stdprn,...). Is there a way around the above? Is there another short way to send output to the printer with -A and -mn active? |

To write to the printer port use the win32 api functions: OpenPrinter (..) StartPagePrinter (..) etc When you really want to use dos because of the 'stdprn' etc, use an extender like dos x 32 see http://www.dosextender.com/ Arjan |
