[Resolved] Using OpenWatcom compiler in C::B

[Biplab]

It works as expected.

-------------- Build: Debug in my_starfield ---------------
[ 50.0%] wcl386.exe -q -c -l=dos4g -wx  -d2    -iC:\watcom\h -iC:\watcom\h\nt  -fo=obj\Debug\main.obj main.c
[100.0%] wlink.exe option quiet system dos4g debug watcom all  LIBP  C:\watcom\lib386;C:\watcom\lib386\nt file obj\Debug\main.obj name bin\Debug\my_starfield.exe

In your attached project file there is no instance of the required Custom variable for this operation.

I'm attaching the modified project.

Hi Biplab (and all) !

And thanks to you for your answer !!!
I was near the truth : in fact, I wrote $(TARGET_OS) instead of TARGET_OS because it's written like this in the "Custom variables" windows... :oops: sorry !!!

So now, effectively, it works as expected... for the flags, but not for my prog ! :cry: :cry: :cry:

I'm searching why I have all this errors (while it works correctly when I compile it manually) : may be I'll need your help once again...

 :wink:

Hi !

It's me again... :mrgreen:

So, instead of trying to search where I made mistakes, I still need your help : I don't understand why, when I compile my prog in Openwatcom directly by command line it works perfectly with no error, and when I use C::B to do the same (same prog, same flag to compile, etc) I always have lots of errors, even whith latest version of C::B (SVN4564) :

After many searchs, I've found in a french forum an old post (2003) who explain that this kind of problem appears in Openwatcom when path is uncorrectly notified... But my path is:

Code

PATH=C:\WATCOM\BINNT;C:\WATCOM\BINW

So, where is my error

[Eric75000]

I'm not sure, but I think it's not an error... but a bug !

In the logs, we can see that the LIBP flag for the linker correctly notices the good library path :

Code

wlink.exe system dos4g debug watcom all  LIBP  C:\watcom\lib386;C:\watcom\lib386\nt file obj\Debug\main.obj name bin\Debug\my_starfield.exe

And the "clib3r.lib" file (that apparently makes problem) exists in C:\WATCOM\lib386\nt !

So, I don't think that this time I made a mistake...
Someone can confirm my thought ?

[Eric75000]

=> There's no one who can help me

May be Biplab... again ?

[Biplab]

Remove C:\watcom\lib386\nt from library search path. Then add C:\WATCOM\lib386\dos to the library search path. That should solve the problem.
