1. Borland C Compiler

SWIG/Euphoria, the last program I released, was compiled using the free
Borland C compiler. Carlos Valdes reports that when he tried using it, it
complained that it needed the CC3250.DLL. This came as a suprise to me,
since I assumed that it generated stand-alone EXEs. Disappointingly, this is
not the case.

I can't find any documentation on the DLL in the help file, or on the 'Net.
Is there a way of setting the compiler so that it doesn't rely on the DLL?

I'll try to get a fixed copy of SWIG/Euphoria posted soon; apologies to
anyone who had trouble with it.

Thanks!

  David:

    That DLL comes with Borland BCC5.5 which is a free compiler download.

I obviously phrased my question poorly. Can I create executables with the
Borland compiler that _do not_ require the DLL? If so, what is the command
line option to the compiler or linker?

Thanks!

 Couldn't you control that with a make file ?

Its not by chance building a debug version is it?

Yes, that's what a make file does.

The problem is, I don't know *what* flag to specify to the compiler or
linker. It's enough to drive me into using djgpp again...

It doesn't appear to be, thanks. The flags are

    -c -w-

which are compile without link and a warning handler flag.

   David:

   Goto to the DOS prompt and type BCC32 that will list all options
   for the compiler.

   Goto to the DOS prompt and type ILINK32  that will list all options
   for the linker.


   In the COMPILER you can specify LIBRARY directories.

   In the LINKER you can specify LIBRARY files.

   Can't you just link only the DLL's that you want to use ?
