Compiling Harbour from source code

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Dear friends, I'm trying to compile Harbour from source code. All is working but some of the include files and libraries are missing (as an example, hbarc4.h). Do you know what could be the cause?

[Antonio Linares]

Dear Enrico,

hbarc4.h is at c:\harbour\include\ so it seems as your include path it is not pointing to harbour/include

Dear Antonio,

I'm compiling Harbour from source code. So win-make should take care of copying all the Harbour's include directory to the HB_INSTALL_PREFIX directory. It does except some files. Anyway, Harbour is working fine at the end. I only wonder why some files are missing.

[Antonio Linares]

Dear Enrico,

oHrb = hb_compileFromBuf( cCode, .T., "-n", "-q2", "-I c:\harbour\include" )

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

I don't understand.

Dear Enrico,

How are you doing it ?

Usually to compile Harbour code at runtime we use hb_compileFromBuf()

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

I'm using this batch:

Code: Select all | Expand

@ ECHO OFF

SET MSC=e:\msc32\msc

SET PATH=%MSC%\bin
SET HB_INSTALL_PREFIX=e:\fw\temp\harbour\harbour

SET INCLUDE=%MSC%\include\ucrt;%MSC%\include;%MSC%\include\sdk
SET LIB=%MSC%\lib;%MSC%\lib\sdk

SET HB_USER_CFLAGS=-MD -O1

win-make clean install

PAUSE

Dear Enrico,

The Harbour compiler itself is inside hbcplr.lib, you don't need to call harbour.exe

you can directly compile and execute from your EXE !!!

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Dear Antonio,

you are missing the point. I wanted Harbour from the latest source code in the git repository. Anyway, never mind. I'm happy with the result.

[Antonio Linares]

ok, very good
