I am trying to build ver 4 ex.exe with djgpp ver 4.23 and
and all I get is errors trying to run djglib and djgex batch file.
There are no instructions in the documents that spell out the steps
to follow in building the exe's. Shouldn't that spelled out in the docs ?
1. What compiler is supposed to be used to build the ex.exe ?
2. Is there any editing that has to be done in any batch file ?
( like those that were required to build exw.exe )
3. Are there any parameters needed on the command line for the batch files ?
To build with DJGPP, you use the unix makefile (Makefile) and not the batch files.
So under DJGPP it is:
make
Note that for watcom, the command is:
wmake -f makefile.wat dosall
DJGPP building doesn't quite work. A few simple changes to the makefile will allow it to function correctly, however you will need to have echo.exe and basename.exe installed (and your sh.exe should be a bash shell).
