Borland's compiler linker changed its name since version 5.4 (I did not have 5.3): it became "ilink32" instead of "tlink32". Because of that it will be more convenient to make that option more configurable. So I'm proposing a patch that introduces this. Also it makes similar changes with a couple more options that makes files config.(vc|bc|gc) more similar. Tested with both BC++ and MSVC++ and should definitely work with GCC. All changes are made in win32 subdir. --- config.bc.orig Sun Nov 12 21:49:32 2000 +++ config.bc Mon Nov 13 19:17:30 2000 @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ c='' castflags='0' cat='type' -cc='bcc32' +cc='~CC~' cccdlflags=' ' ccdlflags='-tWD' ccflags='-DWIN32' @@ -532,7 +532,7 @@ ivtype='long' known_extensions='~static_ext~ ~dynamic_ext~ ~nonxs_ext~' ksh='' -ld='tlink32' +ld='~LINK32~' lddlflags='-Tpd ~LINK_FLAGS~' ldflags='~LINK_FLAGS~' ldlibpthname='' --- config.gc.orig Sun Nov 12 21:49:04 2000 +++ config.gc Mon Nov 13 19:18:54 2000 @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ c='' castflags='0' cat='type' -cc='gcc' +cc='~CC~' cccdlflags=' ' ccdlflags=' ' ccflags='-MD -DWIN32' --- config.vc.orig Sun Nov 12 21:48:54 2000 +++ config.vc Mon Nov 13 19:18:34 2000 @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ c='' castflags='0' cat='type' -cc='cl' +cc='~CC~' cccdlflags=' ' ccdlflags=' ' ccflags='-MD -DWIN32' @@ -532,7 +532,7 @@ ivtype='long' known_extensions='~static_ext~ ~dynamic_ext~ ~nonxs_ext~' ksh='' -ld='link' +ld='~LINK32~' lddlflags='-dll ~LINK_FLAGS~' ldflags='~LINK_FLAGS~' ldlibpthname='' --- Makefile.orig Mon Nov 13 18:07:24 2000 +++ Makefile Mon Nov 13 19:14:53 2000 @@ -691,6 +691,7 @@ "INST_ARCH=$(INST_ARCH)" \ "archname=$(ARCHNAME)" \ "cc=$(CC)" \ + "ld=$(LINK32)" \ "ccflags=$(OPTIMIZE:"=\") $(DEFINES) $(BUILDOPT)" \ "cf_email=$(EMAIL)" \ "d_crypt=$(D_CRYPT)" \ --- makefile.mk.orig Mon Nov 13 18:07:24 2000 +++ makefile.mk Mon Nov 13 19:09:55 2000 @@ -813,6 +813,7 @@ INST_ARCH=$(INST_ARCH) ~ \ archname=$(ARCHNAME) ~ \ cc=$(CC) ~ \ + ld=$(LINK32) ~ \ ccflags=$(OPTIMIZE) $(DEFINES) $(BUILDOPT) ~ \ cf_email=$(EMAIL) ~ \ d_crypt=$(D_CRYPT) ~ \ <!ENTITY Vadim REALLIFE "Vadim V.Konovalov, St.Petersburg, Russia"> &Vadim;Thread Next
