GNAT 3.09 on NT expect to be installed on [drive]:/usr on whatever drive you install it on. Whereas GCCWin32 can be installed on other directory mounted as / using the mount command and the registry. And even as I made the GCCWin32 directory mimicks that of GNAT distribution, I still couldn't get it to work. Whereas Binary distribution of GNAT on LinuxElf can be installed on top of the distributed gcc 2.7.2.1 by only making 2 soft links. So I'm trying to rebuilt GNAT 3.09 on NT using GCC-Win32 b18 (the latest). BTW 3.09 GNAT binary was built on 17.1. I have downloaded cdk-src for b18 and gnat-3.09-src. However the problem is on the GNAT src distribution there are only readme's for OS/2 and Linux and No readme and instruction on how to do it on NT. Furthermore there are diff files for gcc-2.7.2 in the GNAT distribution. Is it wise to apply that to GCC-Win32 cdk-src distributions? (My hunch is NO) BTW I have lost the GCC-Win32 mailing list messages on how to built gcc. If ne1 can resend me on instructions how to do it, will be much appreciated. So ne1 can offer instructions and pointers if this is possible? I would really be indebted. Also if ne1 on the GNAT chat reading this, is it possible to build dll's using GNAT on NT? Thank you. ------------------------------ Mansuriatus Shahrir Amir mansur AT tm DOT net DOT my mansur AT pc DOT jaring DOT my - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
