Building

FroNT RPC is built with Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0. You should also be able to build it using another C compiler and make utility and Microsoft's freely available Platform SDK.

Please send feedback if you built this package under another development environment.

Building with Microsoft Visual C++

To build everything but the demos, simply run nmake from the top-level directory. To build the demos, run nmake from the src/demo directory.

Type nmake help to get more detailed build directions.

If you tweak a MSVC++ project file and regenerate makefiles, you may want to run the fixmakdep.pl perl script to fix-up absolute pathname dependencies that MSVC++ puts into its makefiles. Just run the script from the top-level directory to have it fix-up the makefiles. (You may wish to create a backup of the makefiles first so that you can diff them and make sure the script did the right thing.)
