Here is how to compile resources on windows with tcc.
Most of these instructions for compiling resources on windows are already
include in "tcc/docs/tcc-win32.txt", but I'll reiterate them here.
--------------------------------------
File I used. Others versions may work.
--------------------------------------
tcc
tcc-0.9.26-win32-bin.zip
windres.exe
cogtool.hcii.cs.cmu.edu/trac/browser/tags/1.0beta15/lib/build-only/launch4j/bin/windres.exe?rev=1424
mingw winapi
sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Base/w32api/w32api-3.12/w32api-3.12-mingw32-dev.tar.gz/download
Newest version 4.* caused errors for me when compiling. Had this version on my
computer so thats what i used.
---------------------------------------
Directions (with tcc already extracted)
---------------------------------------
1. Put windres.exe in the same directory as tcc.exe
2. Hex edit windres.exe search for "gcc -E -xc" and modify "gcc" to "tcc". Or
if you dont have a hex editor then copy "tcc.exe", rename the copy to "gcc.exe"
3. Extract "w32api-3.12-mingw32-dev.tar.gz" and copy all the header files from
"include/" directory into the "tcc/includes/winapi/" directory overwriting
everything.
4. Follow the instructions in the "tcc/doc/tcc-win32.txt" on resources. Note
that IDC_STATIC is not defined see optional step 6 below.
--------------------------------------------------
Optional Windows Command Script Files (batch file)
--------------------------------------------------
5. Create a batch file for a "tcc console" I named mine "console.cmd" with the
following line in it (You will need to modify this if tcc is not installed in
the "C"\tcc" directory):
@%comspec% /k "title tcc console & set PATH=c:\tcc;%PATH%"
Just copy it where you want it, double click.
6. Create a batch file called "rc.cmd" in the same directory as "tcc.exe" with
the following line in it:
@windres -D IDC_STATIC=-1 -O coff "%~1" -o "%~1.o"
To compile a resource just have the directory for tcc in your path and type "rc
filename.ext" this will create a file compiled object named "filename.ext.o".
Then just compile with tcc, for example "tcc main.c main.rc.o -o app.exe".
