I've been playing around with it a bit. Linking with binmode.obj
works, the problem is that stdout for some reason is writing out text
in binary. I tried using the setmode route but it doesn't change. I'm
wondering if for some reason something else is going on. Here is a
snippet of the code
if (!_dxd_exRemoteSlave) {
char tmpbuf[80];
sprintf(tmpbuf,
"Memory cache will use %ld MB (%ld for small items, %ld for
large)\n\n",
((large_size + small_size) >> 20),
(small_size >> 20), (large_size >> 20));
write(fileno(stdout), tmpbuf, strlen(tmpbuf));
}
And the output is coming out as garbled.
Do you thing the sprintf might be expecting two byte characters?

Hi David,
If linking with binmode.obj fails, does setting the global _fmode =
_O_BINARY still work correctly? It should do the same thing. Neither
binmode.obj nor the _fmode global are supposed to affect stdout, stderr,
and stdin. That's a definite bug. You could set the default fmode to
binary but then execute
setmode( fileno( stdout ), _O_TEXT );
setmode( fileno( stdin ), _O_TEXT );
setmode( fileno( stderr ), _O_TEXT );
I'm glad things are running. I recall doing a full build was a real
pain, so that's great.

Subject: RE: [opendx-dev] problem compiling import module under Windows
If you figure it out, can you give me some ideas how to fix it? I'm
more than happy to try and get it all sorted out.
On a similar topic, I've got everything compiling with VS2003 (cl
v13.10.3077). Everything seems to be working pretty well, except:
Our code links with BINMODE.OBJ to turn all reads and writes to
binary. But now, the writes to stdout are in binary. From what I read
on MSDN, this shouldn't happen (doesn't with vc 6 version), but it
does with this compiler. Any idea how to fix it without having to add
all the _fmode statements? I guess I could send a question to the VS
team.
David
