Hi there, These are the changes I needed to make to compile wxWin162d with Borland 4.5 as 32bit. I had some problems with inclusions of g++ header files when using garbage collection, but except this I've selected everything in wx_Setup.h. I think, I've compiled/tested every lib, sample, utility and contribution delivered with wxWin for MSW except some library test programs (e.g. test of wxstring), but if you are missing something, please let me know. changes in makefiles: ===================== src/make32.bat: - added -DBCCDIR= - make32.bat now passes up to 3 parameters to make.exe - due to the changes to src/makefile.b32 you can now specify the lib or executable you want to be build (e.g. make32 fafa) src/makefile.b32: - renamed target wxwin.cfg as wxwin32.cfg - wxwin32.cfg now contains the values of OPT and DEBUG_FLAGS, so there will be no need to pass them to the child makefiles (otherwise I had too long command lines) - there was a missing '-D' before DEBUG; I've added it, although Borland's make did not complain about it - renamed -DWXDIR= as -DWXWIN= - added some include pathes to wxwin32.cfg - now makefile.b32 is capable of building most of the wxWin libs and execs on demand (just added the right targets): target builds what ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ all the name says it all all_execs builds all executables (without winstall.exe, see 'unsolved problems') all_libs builds all libs from utils/, contrib/ and wx-lib, of course all_contrib builds everything in contrib/ all_utils builds everything in utils/ all_samples builds everything in samples/ (name_of_lib_or_exe) builds the specified lib or exe (e.g. 'fafa' for contrib/fafa) src/msw/makefile.b32: - moved wx_clipb.h from base headers to local headers - library page size increased to 256 - ..\base\wx_lay.obj was a member of BASEOBJECTS2 and BASEOBJECTS4 - deleted the second one - some base object files were missing in the makefile (see below) - exchanged tlib $(WXLIB)\wx.lib /P256 @&&! with tlib $(LIBTARGET) /P256 @&&! src/base/makefile.b32 - the following source- and object-files were missing in the makefile: wb_res wb_scrol wb_stat wb_vlbox wx_doc wx_enhdg contrib/fafa/makefile.b32: - created contrib/wxstring/makefile.b32: - created contrib/itsybits/makefile.b32: - a bit face-lifting :) contrib/gauge/makefile.b32: - created contrib/wxxpm/makefile.b32: - created utils/xpmshow/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/hytext/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/wxhelp/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/tex2rtf/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/prologio/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/wxtree/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/wxgraph/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/image/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/wxbuild/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/rcparser/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/winstall/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/mfutils/src/makefile.b32: - created utils/dib/makefile.b32: - created samples/hello/makefile.b32: - face-lifting again samples/ipc/makefile.b32: - created samples/form/makefile.b32: - created samples/animate/makefile.b32: - face-lifted samples/mdi/makefile.b32: - created samples/minimal/makefile.b32: - face-lifted samples/fractal/makefile.b32: - created samples/vlist/makefile.b32: - created samples/panel/makefile.b32: - created samples/layout/makefile.b32: - face-lifted samples/static/makefile.b32: - created samples/printing/makefile.b32: - face-lifted samples/toolbar/makefile.b32: - created samples/buttnbar/makefile.b32: - created samples/docview/makefile.b32: - created samples/memcheck/makefile.b32: - created samples/odbc/makefile.b32: - face-lifted changes in source files: ======================== src/base/wb_print.cc and src/msw/wx_dc.cc: - removed comment marks in the lines // #ifndef __BORLANDC__ #include // #endif otherwise I got multiple declarations src/msw/wx_win.cc: - lines 3172- : changed #if WIN32 short minPos, maxPos; #else int minPos, maxPos; #endif to #ifdef WIN32 #ifdef __BORLANDC__ int minPos, maxPos; #else short minPos, maxPos; #endif #else int minPos, maxPos; #endif contrib/gauge/zyzgauge.c: - Win32s has no GetTextExtent function. I hope GetTextExtentPoint will do its job now (see lines 269-273 and 359-365). contrib/wxstring/wxregex.h: - added '#ifndef __BORLANDC__' at line 138; bcc32 complains about '#define alloca _alloca' contrib/wxstring/wxregex.cc: - added '#ifndef __BORLANDC__' at line 203; bcc32 complains about 'char *alloca ();' utils/image/src/wx_image.h: - added '#ifdef wx_x' before line 36: #include "wx_imgx.h" utils/mfutils/src/mfutils.h: - line 34: replaced #ifndef META_SETBKCOLOR with #if !defined(META_SETBKCOLOR) || (defined(__BORLANDC__) && defined(WIN32)), because Win32s seems to have less META_xxx constants; then I got redefinitions of the FF_xxx constants, so I ifdef'ed them out samples/vlist/_srchdlg.cc: - line 12: deleted misplaced #endif samples/buttnbar/test.rc: - there were no bitmap-files in samples/buttnbar/bitmap/, so I've copied as many files as I could get from samples/toolbar/bitmaps and utils/wxbuild/src/bitmaps, but there are still some missing; used help.bmp instead unsolved problems: ================== utils/winstall: - I was unable to compile it. I got an error in line 35 of install.h: 'Declaration terminated incorrectly', but could not figure out why. I got some 'xxx is not member of class xxx' messages, too. samples/buttnbar: - the toolbox icons were not loaded properly; there are only black squares - the toolbar icons have a similar problem, they are grainy utils/wxbuild: - toolbar icons are grainy - forms are completely black even if you put some panels or items on it samples/form: - forms are painted completely black src/include/base/wx_obj.h: - gc_c++.h will be included when garbage collection is set on; is there a work around for MSW ? That's it. BTW: If you have memory problems when compiling wxWin with Borland and do not want to mess up the DPMI, just compile it in a DOS box under Windows (with a right sized swap file, of course) - it's unbelievable, but MSW3.1 had no problems with that on my 8MB machine :). Good luck - patrick (patrick@zaphod.ruhr.de)
