Hi group,

I downloaded the 8.28 beta and compiled the MFC 4.21 library (NAFXCW.LIB).
However
I was not able to compile the DLL (SFC42.MAK). Help/tips/suggestions highly
appreciated.

Where are the import libraries (shell32.lib, winspool.lib etc.) ?

I did use the implib.exe to generate them but it seems that the generated libs do not have the decorated symbols (like _somefunction@4 etc.)

Is there any tool to do that ?

The LCC-Win32 compiler generates all the import libraries on the client system after installation. Maybe it should have the necessary .def files.

Another Q:  the magic header of the exe generated by dmc++ is MZ and PE. Does it mean that the executables use the dos exe file format and not PE ?

sorry for being so long.

They're on the CD version.

Not automatically, you'll need a def file for it.

The MZ is just for the "stub executable" which just prints out that you need Win32 to run.
