Reviving the "d" versions was the shortest path given so many *.dsp were referencing them. Removing the "d" won't take long and the *.dsp files seem to resolve selection with "/libpath" option. The outputs are very similar: H:\commoncpp2\w32>dir Debug\*.exe Release\*.exe Volume in drive H is CTP-RAID-001 Volume Serial Number is 6897-6A9D Directory of H:\commoncpp2\w32\Debug 09/01/2005 09:49 98,378 bug1.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 98,378 bug2.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 98,379 crc32.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 98,380 digest.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 94,286 slogTest.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 102,473 tcp.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 110,672 tcpservice.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 98,381 tcpstr1.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 106,575 tcpthread.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 98,381 thread1.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 98,381 thread2.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 94,282 url1.exe 09/01/2005 09:50 98,382 urlfetch.exe 09/01/2005 09:50 106,574 xmlfetch.exe 14 File(s) 1,401,902 bytes Directory of H:\commoncpp2\w32\Release 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 bug1.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 bug2.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 crc32.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 digest.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 slogTest.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 tcp.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 20,480 tcpservice.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 tcpstr1.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 tcpthread.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 thread1.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 thread2.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 url1.exe 09/01/2005 09:49 16,384 urlfetch.exe 09/01/2005 09:50 16,384 xmlfetch.exe 14 File(s) 233,472 bytes 0 Dir(s) 99,231,744 bytes free H:\commoncpp2\w32> _______________________________________________ Bug-commoncpp mailing list Bug-commoncpp@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-commoncpp
