How do I compile with BuildX this ?

[HunterEC]

Guys:

I got an app that is contains multiple modules (around 24 PRGs).
1. How can I compile them with Buildx.bat ?
2. Is there a way of building the app like the old Rmake utility for DOS ?

Thank you.

Gustavo,

In FWH\makes folder there are makefiles examples for Borland and Microsoft.

Just edit them to use the same xHarbour libs as buildx.bat

Thank you for your response. Based on your posting about building apps with Visual Studio 2012, should I pursue the development based on Microsoft's compiler ?

How can I force strict scope checking, like the old Clipper MyProg /w /es2,when compiling ?

Thank you

Gustavo,

I think that the Microsoft Visual Studio is becoming more and more a very intesting tool that we can use to build our apps and Microsoft offers it for free (Express edition). I feel much more comfortable using Microsoft C instead of GNU C (on Windows), and Borland lately is not as friendly as it used to be, does not provide a standalone C compiler, there is no debugger, etc. So to me, Microsoft Visual C is a great choice and I am enjoying it more and more

You can specify any Harbour flags from here:

Thank you, I'll give it a try. VS 2012 101 for me. Hehehe !
