I have just upgraded my computer from Symantec 7.6 to the latest version. For some reason on command line compiling I no longer find the include files from C:\SC\include.

I didn't change anything except to copy in the new files from the distribution, and don't remember this problem before from doing the same thing on another computer.

Any thoughts?

John

Do a dir on the \sc\include directory. If the files aren't there, check to see that your INCLUDE environment variable points to it. If the files aren't there, you'll need to reinstall from your original Symantec CD and then try copying the Digital Mars update files again.

It is interesting that my installation at home does have an INCLUDE environment variable set, and this one didn't. Up till this upgrade I must have been using what is in the SC.INI which dated from the 7.5 era. When I upgraded to DM 8.02 that didn't operate any more.

Which way is it supposed to be done? The html file seems to imply you are moving
to using SC.INI rather than the environment, but this experience seems the
opposite.
Also the SC.INI as described there does not have double quotes round things,
which there are in the old 7.5 one.

Should I set something for the libraries as well?

Cheers

John

Ok, now we're getting somewhere. The sc.ini file must be in the same directory as the one sc and scppn are run from. Is it? -Walter

SC.INI is in C:\SC\BIN where the install of 7.50 put it. It looks like this
(attachment).

It was there when I upgraded to 8.02. That is when things stopped working. I didn't move it when I upgraded.

John

Ok, try these. -Walter

Thanks.  That works without INCLUDE=c:\sc\include to compile and links as well.

Command line, -mx model.

John.

Great! I'll see about updating the download package with these files. -Walter
