Turbo C doubt
 |
Does we need turbo c software to run turbo c exe file?
Hmmm sounds wierd! I wrote a program called chart.c in turbo c which is two header files like bimap.h ,xyz.h.When I compile,chart.exe is created.when i run chart.exe in some other machine, its not running unless tc sofware and those two header files is placed in the system.Can anyone tell me why it happens and how to make one single exe file without all these headerfiles and tc sofware.
Thanks in advance

What happens when you try to run it? Without the "what happens" there is no way we can figure out the "why".

Better move on with the times rather than being left behind. When using Turbo C, beginners keep getting weird ideas about how to clear the screnn, checking for key hits, using the useless inbuilt graphic library.
Using modern optimizing compilers keep you from using non standard funcitons in your program.
Do a reality check ? Want graphics in your program to make a game, use third party graphics engine ? Want GUI ? Use GTK+.
There always is a better alternative if you have open ideas about it.

Also TurboC programs quickly run out of memory which makes it a poor compiler for all but the simplest graphics programs. And that was the major reason why Mkcrosoft abandoned MS-DOS operating system.

And as a final reason, it's no longer being updated. While Dev-C++ IDE isn't either, you can download MinGW patches for it.

Guyz,thanks for all the replies.I have done a complete program(generating growtchart-taking image and plotting on the image from coordinates in a notepad file).Now i cannot change the the complete code to .cpp.Now the problem with my program is that i have two header files bitmap.h (to open the image) and some other .h file.When i put my exe in some other machine, i have to copy two header files and tc folder to that machine and then run my exe file.How to overcome this problem?

I will shorten my problem.Now the problem is when i copy the exe file to some other machine, its not running without TC folder.I mean to say Once i copy the tc folder to the machine the exe is running without any problem.Without TC folder when i run the exe file, the image is not getting displayed.
My program:
It gives the user a browse dialog box where the user selects text file from which the x and y coordinates is fetched to plot on a chart image(opened using bitmap.h).Now if TC folder is not there, the user is prompted with dialog box once it is selected image is not getting displayed i mean the chart.
Hope it is understood
