| subject: | Successfully compiled Maximus 3.02 |
I have successfully compiled all Maximus 3.02 overlayed DOS and Win32 source executables as per "MaximusSourceDoc.doc" on Windows XP using Watcom C/C++ Version 11c and the "h\nt" headers and "lib386\nt" libraries from Version 10.6. I am very happy. I am now in the process of correcting the build scripts and updating the source documentation because it said: "copy the legacy Watcom compiler include files into c:\dv\s3\comp\wc15\h\nt and copy the old compiler's libraries into c:\dv\s3\comp\wc15\lib386\nt." when "dv\s3\binnt\setwc11.bat" set WATCOM_LIBS to the wrong location (!) (c:\dv\comp\wc15 instead of c:\dv\s3\comp\wc15). Unfortunately it took me 4 weeks of debugging grief before this single error was spotted. Man, I was severely pissed off. In the end, nothing had to be modified except this incorrectly set WATCOM_LIBS environment. There was no need to fix inconsistent declarations, types, defines etc. Everything described in "MaximusSourceDoc.doc" would have worked if that WATCOM_LIBS was set correctly. Heh. Now I can start reading the SLIB stuff :) Woohoo ! --- Maximus 3.01* Origin: Xaragmata / Adelaide SA telnet://xaragmata.mooo.com (3:800/432) SEEN-BY: 261/38 633/104 260 267 640/954 690/682 734 712/0 313 848 800/7 432 SEEN-BY: 800/812 896 @PATH: 800/432 633/260 712/848 633/267 |
