Do I need to switch to an older version? What version of 2.8.1 is fine for C programming. C++ is a problem. I understand C++ used to work with the earlier version, but I haven't tested it. I believe all that is required is a rebuild of the compiler with the stabs option enabled, but I haven't gotten that ambitious yet. > The patches given with RSXNTDJ don't seem to match up to this release, > is there a newer version of the patch? I have put two sets of patches on my site, http://people.montana.com/~bowman/Rsxntdj/rsxntdj.htm The first [patch] will handle most of the files you will need for straightforward Windows programming. The second [DirectX] patches the headers used with DirectX and provides a workaround for UUID information. The djgpp 'ld' works for me for producing .exe files, but the rsxntdj 'ld' seems to be needed to successfully build a .dll. I believe the .dll options will need some work. You might want to search the archives for the discussion on modifying the spec file to include either the /mt or /st library in the search path. NOTE: I'm working on Win95, but I assume the above will work on 98. NT users are on their own.
