I tried to compile some programs which use resouces, but I've been unsuccessful with WINDRES and RCL. These same programs compile fine under LCC-Win32. With windres.exe when I use this command line: windres -i status.rc -o status.res -I rc -O res --preprocessor c++ I get this error: status.rc: file not recognized: File format not recognized E:\MING\BIN\WINDRES.EXE: no resources With rcl.exe when I use this command line: rcl -i status.rc -r status.res -cpp c++ I get this error: c++: rescpp.res: No such file or directory Error executing command 'c++ status.rc rescpp.res', code = 0 How do I use resources with my programs? I want to make .o files and link them with my program ( I don't want to use res2coff 'cause I read windres has replaced it sorta).
