Borland C++ compiler problem

[tommeekers]

Hi,

I have an example source code (I have no idea what it is supposed to do), with a 'makefile included'. Surfing the web I found the free Borland C++ compiler. I'm trying to run this 'makefile' (it should make me a .dll)

This is the makefile:

# $Id: $
CC = cl
LINK = link
DEFINES = -DWIN32
OUTNAME = opengl32
CFLAGS = /nologo /MT /W3 /GX
LFLAGS = -nologo -warn -dll -incremental:no -opt:ref -release

OFILES = opengl32.obj

all: whole

whole: $(OFILES) $(OUTNAME).exp
link $(OFILES) $(OUTNAME).exp $(LFLAGS) $(LIBS) -out:$(OUTNAME).dll

$(OUTNAME).exp: $(OUTNAME).def
lib -nologo -def:$(OUTNAME).def -out:$(OUTNAME).lib $(OFILES)

clean:
@del *.obj
@del *.dll
@del *.exp
@del *.lib
@del *.map
@del *.pdb

.cpp.obj:
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) /Fo$(<R).obj $<

.c.obj:
$(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) /Fo$(<R).obj $<



when I use make.exe to make my .dll it keeps giving an error about the 'cl'. It doesn't understand it or something. What is wrong here ? Why can't I compile this ?

I'm guessing that the line

CC = cl

ought to read

CC = BCC32

. It doesn't look like this makefile is written for a Borland compiler but another compiler. If this is true, some of the other options may or may not work as expected.

You're probably right. Now I get an error 'E2075: Incorrect command line option: /MT'.
You got any idea what compiler this is written for ?

I'm guessing Microsoft's Command Line compiler. If so then the -MT mean create a multithread app using LIBCMTD.

I used Microsoft's Command Line compiler, and it also returns an error. Again the 'cl' is not recognized. :/
Any other suggestions ?
