Well, I was excited to download the compiler and play with a new toy.. But, it is missing quite a few windows libs..  I tryed to make them like this:

implib /s gdi32.lib gdi32.dll

Anyways, didn't seem to work for me. Anyone can tell me how to do it right?

Thanks,

I am not sure if the .LIB's are part of the license agreement with Microsoft. I
would think they are....
Anyways, If you have VC-- 6.0 you can take the .LIB out of there and just run
COFF2OMF on it.

Don't worry, be Kneppie!

The command line is:

    implib /system gdi32.lib gdi32.dll

What are the symptoms of it failing for you?
