Hello all, I got a co-worker to try and compile VIC for windows but even compiling TCL fails pretty fast. We have VC++ 7. (errors attached)
Any hints? A howto on compiling VIC for windows? Where can I email patches to VIC for improvements? At this rate I'm going to blow away windows on the display machine and switch to linux. Thanks. B. Bogart Ryerson University
--- Begin Message ---Hi Ben, I hoped the compile would be simple, but it's become very difficult because it was built to be compiled under VC++5, where I have 7 (2003). Of course microsoft wouldn't want to keep backwards compatability? I worked around the first couple errors compiling TCL, but I'm stuck on these: C:\Progra~1\Micros~2.net\Vc7\bin\link.exe /RELEASE /NODEFAULTLIB /RELEAS E /NOLOGO /MACHINE:IX86 -entry:_DllMainCRTStartup@12 -dll -def:.\Release\tcl.def -out:.\Release\tcl80.dll .\Release\tcl.res msvcrt.lib oldnames.lib kernel32.li b advapi32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib comdlg32.lib winspool.lib @C:\DOCUME~1\r5ki ng\LOCALS~1\Temp\nm21A.tmp .\Release\tcl.def(2) : warning LNK4017: EXETYPE statement not supported for the target platform; ignored .\Release\tcl.def(3) : warning LNK4017: CODE statement not supported for the tar get platform; ignored .\Release\tcl.def(4) : warning LNK4017: DATA statement not supported for the tar get platform; ignored Creating library .\Release\tcl80.lib and object .\Release\tcl80.exp tclEnv.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __environ referenced in f unction _TclSetupEnv tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_http referenced in function _Tcl_Init tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_word referenced in function _Tcl_Init tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_parray reference d in function _Tcl_Init tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_ldAout reference d in function _Tcl_Init tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_history referenc ed in function _Tcl_Init tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_safe referenced in function _Tcl_Init tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_optparse referen ced in function _Tcl_Init tclWinInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _lib_init referenced in function _Tcl_Init tclWinTime.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __timezone referenced in function _TclpGetTimeZone tclWinTime.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __daylight referenced in function _TclpGetTZName I also pokrd around in common, but am not having too much luck there either. Any hints?? Cheers, -rob p.s. what's the phone extention over there? B. Bogart wrote: >>Hey Rob, >> >>I'm just going to call you. Could you compile vic for windows on your >>VC++?
