Actually my suggestion to use cl.exe is possibly valid, but simply based on the fact that IMHO it works better so I use it. With cl.exe come the header and library files you need to link apps under windows. These are of course the M$ versions. When you get BCC you get Borlands take on these files, which IME have issues. Windows has issues period, but you get less using the M$ native compiler, headers and libs.

*However* if you had read my post properly you would have noted that the minimum flags case includes -DWIN32 which you fail to do......if I leave it out it chokes as we will be trying to compile non win32 code (well skipping the kludges - or whatever). The errors are slightly different but I suggest it might work if you add that define.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
