| Description: | default "all" build broken on w3 (Windows) Note: see also job001365, for further breakage with Visual C++ 7.0. RHSK 2006-04-10 The default "all" build: nmake /f w3i3mv.nmk does not work with Visual C++ 6.0. There are several defects; they are a subset of those reported by Bruce Mitchener [Mitchener]. Workaround: - don't use the "all" build; - use "nmake /f w3i3mv.nmk mps.lib", "nmake /f w3i3mv.nmk mpsplan.lib", "nmake /f w3i3mv.nmk amcss.exe", etc. - or use w3build.bat instead. |
| Analysis: | RHSK 2006-04-10 The default MPS build is the "all" target, which includes: 1. the main "mps.lib" library; 2. the example plinth "mpsplan.lib"; 3. a lot of test executables. Part 3 (test executables) does not build with Visual C++ 6.0, thereby breaking the default "all" build. |

| 158054 | closed | 2006‑04‑07 15:56:43 | rhsk | MPS: fix w3i3mv "all" build with VC6: 1. amsss.c: initialize ambigRoot (uninitialized warning); 2. commpost.nmk: 2a. drop long-vanished protcv.exe; 2b. mpmss.exe needs MVFF; 2c. locusss.exe had no build rule; 3. finaltest.c: main does not use argc,v so declare as main(void); 4. lockutw3.c: add parens to avoid operator-precedence warning; 5. protocol.h: s/interface/interfaceIn: suspected compiler bug. |
| 157962 | closed | 2006‑04‑04 14:17:36 | rhsk | MPS: fix Windows build of text-executables needing formats, with new make-variable FMTTEST, replacing DWTEST and HETEST, and fixing awlut.exe build. |
