Re: [Chicken-users] Win32 maintainer needed.. compiler semantics

[Bob McIsaac]

Watcom is literal minded about import libraries.. The import library should
only show what is exported by the DLL. Therefore, the "chicken.exe" target
should link the import library plus another library containing objects that
were compiled with import declarations.  Trying to use Makefile.vc as a
model, as I did,  is confusing because of different compiler semantics.

Ok. It seems that Brandon and me can cover these tasks.
I'll take a look what can be done for Open Watcom. If someone wants to use it, why
not? Ppersonally I can't find sufficiently good reason to migrate to Watcom besides of
probability to get slightly better optimised code.
    

It's mostly a free tool alternative, independent of M$ and suppossedly easy to
use. It's not the *main* alternative, but if we can support it without too much
hassle, we should.

  

What is your position regarding resurrecting MSVC makefile and creating Watcom-specific Makefile?
    

I'll ressurrect makefile.vc and send you everything we currently have for
watcom.
Thanks for helping with this!


cheers,
felix
