I was going to ask, are(n't) the modified sources still compatible with ml.exe? If so, there shouldn't be much reason -not- to adopt a least-common-denominator approach (applying your changes), should there? I'm not much on makefiles, but it might be nice to be able to parameterize the assembler in some way.

I will have to go back and try to reassemble those conversations; I intend to have a look at making all the Ant build stuff as performant as possible, but I suppose I will need to know what's on the horizon wrt the structure of the native stuff. In any event, I hope cygwin is supported soon (I doubt I personally could get it working in anything like a reasonable amount of time)... currently I open a VC window, run the MS SDK SetEnv /XP32 /DEBUG, run another batch file to make all the other env. changes I need, and use that CMD prompt to run Ant. Then I do everything else in a cygwin window. Annoying. :) Thanks again, Matt > > -- > Gregory Shimansky, Intel Middleware Products > Division > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
