It's not really different than what you have been doing. It just uses a
.bat to drive the make, rather than a traditional make file.
If I were you, I would use the 4.1 fixes branch:
https://svn.code.sf.net/p/oorexx/code-0/main/branches/4.1/trunk
* Set up your compile environment just like you do to compile ooDialog.
* Set 2 environment variables
set SRC_DRV=C:
set SRC_DIR=\work.ooRexx\wc\main.4.1.fixes
SRC_DRV is the drive letter. SRC_DIR is the top-level directory of the
source code tree.
* Populate the doc directory with the docs or fake files. You only need to
do this if you want to try and create the installer package. You could
just skip it and take the built binaries and use them
Then cd to the top level directory of your ooRexx source code tree and run:
makeorx NODEBUG
The windows-build.txt file is reasonably up to date. I'd read that for
details and then ask questions if you need to.
