I have downloaded the source tarball of SCID 4.3.0 to my XP box, and used at in cygwin to unpack it.
I have downloaded and installed Visual Studio Express 2010, the whole shebang. I had a very brief run with VC++ to create a new project from an existing source tree. Allegedly that work, but building the project did not. I then supposed it might be easier to use the commandline and the existing makefile. I had to change the makefile, the variable previously known as MSVCDIR is now VSINSTALLDIR; I just made this assignment: VCDIR has been set # MSVCDIR=$(VSINSTALLDIR) !if "$(MSVCDIR)" == "" MSG = ^ And the makefile looks for the wrong TCL version.. Now, the build goes like this: \source\scid>nmake /f Mak efile.vc Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 10.00.30319.01 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.

The lack of the file unistd.h (or similar) bothers me. What should I do next? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ Scid-users mailing list Scid-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/scid-users
