The rwstderr.cat catalog file is used for overriding standard exceptions what() messages (i.e. to have localized messages). On MinGW (as well as on entire Windows) stdcxx doesn't using rwstderr.cat, but using rwstderr.dll instead. Actually if you're fine with english messages, you don't need rwstderr.{cat|dll} because of the english messages are hardcoded in library sources. > Would please tell me, what do I need to do, to get the gencat.exe utility to > accept the rwstderr.msg file? On Windows gencat.exe acceps rwstderr.rc file and produces rwstderr.dll file. Farid.
