Hi folks!

First, I would thank the DigitalMars crew for making their compiler
free.

Well, on the other hand the Windows API is not at all up-to-date.

How is it possible to use more updated liraries with the DMC compiler?
Is it possible to use, for instance, DMC with th includes/libs of
- say - Borland C++ compliers?

The GNU librairy format ".a" can be used to create libs for DMC
(I don't know which is the actual format of these libraries)

Thanx

Borland's and GNU's libraries won't work with DMC. What are you looking for?

Just to profit of up-to-date libraries (GNU's are at least compatible with Win9x + IE 5, commctl32 version 4.72 and Borland C++5.5 has controls compatible with Win2k) with the DMC compiler. -- "Quasi quasi in queste occasioni mi auguro veramente che Berlusconi venda la RAI, ma all'editore di Playboy con l'auguri che trasmettano solo speciali sulla coniglietta del mese.
