Hello !

Digital Mars, current edition.

lib/ADVAPI32.LIB

"ADVAPI32.lib
 Error 43: Not a Valid Library File"

A bug in the distribution ? Already known to the developers ?
So what is that library for ?

lib/stlp45dm_static.lib
Purpose ?

lib/ct.obj
Purpuse with which memory modell ? I assume: just with "tiny" ?

Are there any brief description of the libraries - whats the main purpose/contents for each library is, ect ?

Me: Just starting with C++, with much C and some Java experience. For an student semester work at my local university, as EXTRA work, I will try to support "as many C++ compilers ( including DigitalMars ) and UIs ( not just MFC, but QT, wxWindows,..) as possible. The application itself will be "simple" - a simple Soccer result manager tool.

I am using Eclipse as IDE, with the " C/C++ Development Toolkit (CDT)" and a home-made MAKEFILE.
http://www.eclipse.org/cdt/

See my list about UI frameworks, with focus on C++ and multi-platform GUI frameworks and database frameworks.

Addition:

> lib/ADVAPI32.LIB
> "ADVAPI32.lib

the distributed library is o.k,
but I created an invalid dummy library due to a wrong linker statement in my makefile, so its my fault.

Sincerely
Rolf

It's one of the Microsoft API collections.

You're correct.
