Does anybody know where Jermey is ?
1. I need to know what OS he was using to build the WIN98 Binaries on.
2. What files he has to EDIT to compile using openwatcom.
3. What order and steps he is using for the compile and any special
batch files he is using.
4. I need to know how his OS environment and Watcom environment are setup.
I am very frustrated trying to do a simple compile of the binaries using
the make file to create the EX.EXE file.
I keep running into problems with compiler trying to use DJGPP when it
should't.
Who knows what else has to be edited to kill the DJGPP problem.
I have no idea what configure.bat is suppose to accomplish it just wipes
outconfig.wat which has to contain MANAGED_MEM=1 and ??
makefile.wat has to be edited and has notes in it that it doesn't work
for WIN98.
It is ridiculous that there SIMPLY is not a WIN98 option built into the
makefile.wat instead of all this editing.
On top of all that the SVN trunk keeps giving me errors while trying
to update or checkout.
pick a compiler and version. openwatcom 1.5 and 1.7 work here. haven't tried watcom 11 but minGW w/gcc3.4 now works, look up messages on the dev list to see how to compile.
put into your enviornment WATCOM=path to watcom using set= or however that is done on win2k
makefile.wat won't have to be edited unless you are running wmake on win9x.
first run configure then edit config.wat
dosall makes ex.exe and related files winall makes exw & exwc and related files
everyone deals with the sourceforge problems. make sure the url you are using is is https, wait a few minutes a try again, just update one dir at a time, whatever works.
