In other words, it just adds everything in INCLUDE to LIB and everything in LIB to INCLUDE. Worse, if you ever would do #include <Btrieve/Btrieve.hpp> and Btrieve is a sub of /3rd/include/db you mostlikely will find /3rd/include/db/Btrieve in INCLUDE and LIB as well.... It has been that way with their IDE for some time, but 5.0 is really the worst... Jan |

Posted in reply to Arjan Knepper | The whole concept of using environment variables to get the include & lib path is a botch, which becomes painfully obvious when you have to deal with multiple compilers (and even multiple versions of those compilers!). This is why I came up with the sc.ini scheme, where the compiler looks for its "environment" from that file, which resides in the directory where it found sc.exe. My goal is to provide a compiler system that does not use environment variable settings or system registry settings. Environment variables are very useful, however, in transmitting long command lines to child processes. Sadly, no other vendor ever adopted that technique (which is used in all the digital mars command line driven utilities).

It used to be that "Microsoft Foundation Classes" in altavista.com gave as first website http://www.dpc-tech.com/ (friends of mine) just because their secretary submitted their site over and over again.

Posted in reply to Jan Knepper | Hmmm, right now it is number 12 in altavista.com!
They must be slowing down!
