Yesterday I promised to compile [bob~] for windows, but I am having
trouble delivering.<br>
<br>
It <i>seems</i> that the only way to compile externs on Windows is
to have Visual Studio 6.0. I found a download online and have copied
the Vc98 folder (which has all pertinent libraries and headers) into
an appropriate path for the makefile to find. What bites is that
when I hit make, the linker fails to acknowledge LIBCMT.lib (which
is clearly in my Vc98 folder.) I scoured the web for some info on
building dlls for Pd, but there isn't much there. <br>
<br>
Is anyone out there developing externs in modern Windows (ie 7 or 8
with Visual Studio >=9.0)? I have considered making a project
template for Visual Studio 9.0, but I anticipate problems with
pd.lib and (lack of) back compatibility. <br>
<br>
This is something that I need to have, so I'm happy to keep working
on this, but if there is already a solution that someone can point
me to, well, that'd be swell.<br>
Thanks,<br>
David<br>
