Oops, let one get away.  As I was saying, the dx.mdf included in the MS
binary is OK, but the module is not in dxexec.exe, implying that its not in
user.c - which is created by awkking dx.mdf!  So it seems like the dx.mdf
that is used to create user.c, in the object directory corresponding to
src/exec/dxmods, is different from the one that is in the lib directory of
the release.  dx.mdf is created by passing dxmdf.src through the
preprocessor with -DEXECUTIVE_MODS and -DCPLUSPLUS_UI.

The (intended) sequence is:

dx.mdf is created in the dxmods directory from dxmdf.src by cpp with
-DEXECUTIVE_MODS and -DCPLUSPLUS_UI.
user.c is created in the dxmods directory from dx.mdf by awk.
dx.mdf is copied from the dxmods directory to the lib directory in the
install tree.

So.  I'd guess that the dx.mdf in the dxmods directory in the MS object
tree does not include the executive mods -  otherwise, they'd appear in
user,c and would therefore be in dxexec.exe.  Check by grepping dx.mdf in
the object directory it for Switch.  If it isn't there, then it needs to be
recreated from dxmdf.src - as in the rule in localmk.in.  If it is, then
does Switch show up in user.c?

OK.  If Switch is found grepping user.c, I have no idea what could be
wrong.
Otherwise, if Switch is found grepping dx.mdf, you need to build user.c
from dx.mdf - see the rule in dxmods/local.mk.
Otherwise, Switch is certainly in dxmdf.src - build dx.mdf from dxmdf.src
(see the rule in dxmods/local.mk) and then build user.c from it.

Good luck

Greg

Greg,
The way I compile MSVC versions:

1) Compile using Cygwin, which creates all the files.

2) Use the MSVC Project files to compile MSVC version.

If EXECUTIVE_MODS were not #define then this problem should show up in
Cygwin version too, but it does not?

Can you suggest how to manually correct it?

Suhaib

There is indeed a problem with the current binary for Windows - the one
built under MSVC, not the one built under cygwin.  It looks like none of
the EXECUTIVE_MODS are there - I think that the rule to create dx.mdf from
dxmdf.src in src/exec/dxmods must have been wrong.  When dxmdf.src is
passed through the preprocessor to create dx.mdf, the EXECUTIVE_MODS
#define wasn't set.

I have seen this too when I tried to run the windbarbs.net example program.

Also, I have experienced the problem with the sequencer which others have
been experiencing when I try to configure the range of the frames that I
wish to view.  When I keep the defaults (1-100), it works fine.

I have also been getting errors relating to the keyboard.  For example, if
I
try to highlight a directory name in the file browser and then hit
"backspace" to erase the name so I can put my directory in, the cursor
advances as if I hit the space bar.  I get the same result when I hit
"delete".  Also, "delete" won't work in the program editor window to cut a
module.  I have to go to the menu and use the mouse.
