hi all,
i am having a problem while compiling the crypto++ 5.0 using microsoft 
visual c++ 6 on windows xp.
the actiuve project is set to "cryptest- win32 release". i am getting 0 
errors and warnings when the file is generated, but when i tell the compiler 
to execute the "cryptest.exe", as soon as i try to input any command switch 
the program windoe is terminated.
and when i try to run the cryptest.exe the command prompt of winxp i am 
getting the following error " fromCryptoPP::Exception caught: FileStore: 
error opening file for reading: usage.dat".
the usage.dat file exist whithin the same folder of the crypttest.exe file.
