Mike, What I meant was real DOS, running direct in metal : Ms-dos 6.22 and IBM pc-dos 7.0 I intend to use Open Watcom C Compiler to compile and Causeway to run. ----- your email was -------- Aleksey & Luiz A couple of years ago I got xmlsec to build and work on MS DOS (well, from the Windows command prompt, which is what I assume you mean). I needed to make a very small change to xmlsec (to handle a reference to "cid:/filename/" by just looking for "/filename/", because you can't have colons in MS DOS filenames). I found fundamentally insurmountable problems using MS tools to do this (I'd explain why, but life is too short <g>), so eventually attacked the problem using mingw<http://www.mingw.org/> to build all of the required libraries and the executable as DOS/Win DLLs and an EXE. It was a total nightmare, but I got there in the end and the solution is now deployed and working. I/did/ mean to write up the process of going from source to working executables, but have frankly been too lazy, however I still have my (indecipherable and meaningless to anybody else) notes on what I did. If I can help, I will, to the extent that time permits. _______________________________________________ xmlsec mailing list [email protected] http://www.aleksey.com/mailman/listinfo/xmlsec
