You should compile just the main FBS.rc file:

FBS.RES : FBS.RC
$(BCDIR)\bin\brc32.exe -r -I$(BCDIR)\include fbs.rc

So you will get just one single res file

Dear Antonio,

Thanks,
Getting closer to a 32 bit application.
I have managed to produce a single res file including the four rc files in the exe file.

Now, some lib files need to be converted to 32 bit libs..Is there a convector for doing this. Before i go any further.

Any suggestions...??

[Antonio Linares]

You need to have the source code of those libs to rebuild them in 32 bits, otherwise you need to find a replacement for them.

What do you need them for ?

[RiazKhan]

Hi,

One lib holds the application security and copy protection..the prg is with myself and lib file generated and compiled..the source is with me..what file do I use to convert to 32 bits for my prg..

the other is outlook.lib....for a outlook like style.

the third is the six3 driver....its for tagged nsx files.....also the dbfs are encrypted with a password ...for protection at client end..

[Antonio Linares]

1. Simply compile the LIB PRGs using Harbour instead of Clipper

[RiazKhan]

Hi,

The Libs are okay and compiled..No errors.

Now I have 225 prgs, 225 obj and 225 c files. Compilation gives a few warnings about syntax..but not to worry as those are not so critical. There are NO compile errors .

The exe is produced. I have added a msginfo() on the first line of my main prg as an indicator for execution..The exe file does not even reach there but just an alert dialog box appears with a OK button.

Am I missing something..????

Thanks, Regards and Merry Christmas

Is it a Windows alert or a console text alert ?

[RiazKhan]

Hi,
It seems a console text alert...
FBS.EXE is my application
when i run 'fbs' i get the following.:





when i run 'fbs pfl,2011' i get the following :




very strange....

[Antonio Linares]

Check if you get any log file in the folder where your EXE is located

[RiazKhan]

Hi,
NO log files.....

[Antonio Linares]

What libraries are you linking ?

Please list all the libs that you are using

Try to link gtwin.lib instead of gtgui.lib

also try to remove objects.lib

[RiazKhan]

Dear Antonio,

linking the gtwin.llib instead of gtgui.lib and without objects.lib produces the following errors:

**********************************************************************************************************
I have checked and these calls are in the gtwin.lib file, so they should not be unresolved externals...????

I can generate a clip.log file, but that will only give the compilation of the prgs..

Thanks

Link gtgui.lib and remove objects.lib
