in thread Building Perl with the free MSVC tools

Perl's Makefile specifies msvcrt.dll, does that mean it is targeted to VC 6?

Checking via Dependency Walker, perl.exe that I built with VS.NET 2002 is using MSVCR70.DLL

If Perl links against MSVCRT.LIB...

Searching under my Microsoft Visual Studio .NET directory structure...
...the only msvcr(t)xx.lib I can find is "MSVCRT.LIB"; which is under "Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vc7\lib"

I would suppose there are no msvcr70/71.lib files, only the msvcrt.lib file and the dlls.

Also, the .NET 1.1 SDK on my system does not contain any msvcrt.lib files, just the msvcr71.dll.

My mistake on the post I made. msvcr70/71.lib is msvcrt.lib, each one specific to the version of VC++ used.
(is this correct or am I confused?)

MSDN Runtime Libs This seems to confirm that there is only one msvcrt.lib and no msvcr70/71.lib counterparts.	[reply]

Also, the .NET 1.1 SDK on my system does not contain any msvcrt.lib files, just the msvcr71.dll. I spoke too soon, again. The .NET 1.1 SDK created directory... C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\ ...and it contains all the proper Run-Time libs. (I had everything else installed under drive E:)	[reply]
