hi ,
I have downloaded the 0.9 version of the mozilla browser. I am trying to run
the sample examples that come with the source. I tried to run the XPConnect
sample example present in mozilla\xpcom\sample directory, using the makefile
present in that directory.
When i run nmake command on the makefile present, it gives the following:
Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 6.00.8168.0
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1998. All rights reserved.
+++ make: exporting IDL files
+++ make: exporting generated XPIDL header files
+++ make: installing typelib '.\_xpidlgen\sample.xpt' to components
directory
+++ make: Creating DLL: .\WIN32_D.OBJ\sample.dll
..\..\dist\WIN32_D.OBJ\lib\xpcom.dll : fatal error LNK1136: invalid or
corrupt file
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link' : return code '0x470'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VC98\Bin\NMAKE.EXE"' : return
code '0x2'
Stop.
i.e. it says that the xpcom.dll is a corrupt file. Can anyone help me with
this, as to why this error occurs?
thanx in advance.
