Re: [Freedos-user] FreeDOS 1.0 and Borland compiler v2.0

2009-05-12 Thread Pat Villani
Hi Jim,

I'm just starting as project coordinator, so excuse me if it takes a
little time to address this, but I'll keep it in mind for future
releases.  If you address this on the developer list, maybe someone
else has seen it and may be able to help you.

[Freedos-user] FreeDOS 1.0 and Borland compiler v2.0

2009-05-12 Thread Jim Lemon
Hi gang,
I had to do some programming on the DOS human performance tests that I 
wrote after a considerable break. I had downloaded FreeDOS 1.0 a while 
ago and fortunately hadn't gotten around to installing it until a few 
days ago. When I tried to recompile some code, the compiler started 
throwing errors like:

Can't open file c:\bc\lib\emu.lib

even though the files were all there with no access restrictions. The 
command line compiler gave similar errors, as did the command line 
linker. As about the only thing I had done was to install the new 
version of FreeDOS, I laboriously copied the essential Borland 
installation to an ancient laptop that I use as a lab machine (using 
1.44M floppies!). This had the same version of FreeDOS that I had 
replaced. Sure enough, the compiler worked again and I got the 
executable. I don't know what went wrong, but perhaps this will uncover 
something that can be fixed for the next release.

Jim
