Yes, it is really possible to build biblecs with BCB6. When this semester is over, I will write up some instructions on building biblecs from the CVS tree. Until then, consider using the prebuilt libraries at http://crosswire.org/ucgi-bin/twiki/view/Main/LsTutor01
You will still need the cvs tree for biblecs. Read the instructions and follow as through as building the tutorial. Also place the biblecs directory into C:\yourdir\biblecs.
Open the BCB6 project called "sword.bpr" in C:\yourdir\biblecs\CBuilder6 and "make".
If I included all the instructions properly and you followed them properly ... how's that for a disclaimer :) ... then everything should work the very first time. (oh, such a bold statement).
Of course, I was always told, "Whenever you give demo, never say anything more prophetic than 'Watch this.' "
A Joyful Servant, Jonathan
p.s. I've really spent a lot of time on Sword when I should have spent time on my studies and final essays. I wouldn't change it, but I'm working real hard to play catch up. I earnestly request and appreciate your prayers concerning the excellent completion of my class work. (by the way, other Sword Developers are going through finals as well this month and it might just be a nice and kind idea to pray for the whole team. We sure would appreciate it. Thank you kindly.)

Hello,
sorry for bothering you (I am not very familiar with programming) but is it really possible to build biblecs with BCB6?
I've been trying some days using biblecs, icu-sword and sword files (downloaded with cvs). I use BCB6 Personal version under win98. icuinbcb6.lib is OK with icuucbcb6.lib problems occur: after several warnings there are numerous errors (first is "unable to open input digitlst.cpp" which is located not where the program looks for it).
Should I go on trying to change paths and directories? Following exactly advices concerning this item which were put on your devel-list for one year, I only finished with over 250 compiler warnings, and 50 linker errors. By now, I really appreciate the work of those who succeded with build - and I appreciate the level of technical skills necessary to deal with such a sophisticated project...
Could you give me a piece of advice how to go on?
