Re: [h-e-w] cmdproxy.c link error

[Frank P Esposito]

Hello --

Thanks for the reply

I am using visual studio .net 2003, or vc 7.1 -- It is fully installed and all
service packs applied

This version of visual studio I think was published in the fall of 2002, so its
10 years old


I unloaded the tar ball, then "cd" to the nt directory, ran "configure.bat" like
this:

configure.bat --with-msvc --no-opt --enable-checking --ldflags -map
--without-png --without-jpeg --without-gif --without-tiff
--without-xpm

then I ran

nmake -a -f makefile

these tools did build --

addpm.exe
ddeclient.exe
runemacs.exe


cmdproxy.obj did fail with the missing externs --


I did find if I modified the makefile and made USE_CRT_DLL a comment,
then the make used

libcmt.lib

and __pctype resolved

NOTE: there were issues with etags.c and ctags.c -- they need "include
<stddef.h> in them

But there were other errors -- I can reproduce it if you like --

also, in the code segment in the makefile


!ifdef USE_CRT_DLL
libc            = msvcrt$(D).lib
EMACS_EXTRA_C_FLAGS= -D_DLL -D_MT -DUSE_CRT_DLL=1
!else
libc            = libcmt$(D).lib
EMACS_EXTRA_C_FLAGS= -D_MT
!endif


I think you want "!if" -- this is false if the expression is 0, true
otherwise -- using
!ifdef is alway true since the item USE_CRT_DLL is defined no matter
what its value is

I have attached the console session run these commands / batch files

Thanks

Frank Esposito
