Subject: RSXNTDJ 1.3.1 - problem w/Resource Compiler
Precedence: bulk

Have users of this package had success compiling, e. g., the
sample/gui/Commctl/bar example?

I'm experiencing an odd problem with the 'grc' utility, namely it tries to
call cpp giving the following message:

C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\Meu Porta-arquivos\rsxntdj\GUI\COMMCTL>make
grc -r bar.rc
:-1: Error executing command 'cpp.exe bar.rc -o res$$cpp.res', code = 22

And if I compile the rc file with a resource compiler from Micro$oft, the
'rsrc' utility raises an exception in Win95.

The console apps compile sucessfully, and the GUI apps that do not require
resource compiling, like 'speed.exe' compile and run OK.

I tried to rebuild grc from sources, however:

     1) It uses resources!;
     2) it does not compile under DJGPP out the box (there is a note warning
it was only tested under EMX, though).

the problem with grc seems to be the way it builds the output filename, and
for the records, if one tries to call it manually as 'grc -r bar.rc -o
bar.res', it gives the _same_ error.

TIA
