can't get this to build
Strugglemeat opened this issue · comments
I've tried with several different borland compilers in dosbox. can anyone provide a step-by-step guide on how to compile this?
Ahh, I think the original readme I've added is a bit misleading.
The project should be built using CMake and a modern compiler ( MSVC/gcc/clang ).
ok, I used "cmake ." and then "make" and got an error about adding #include <cstddef> to idioms/idiom1.h
just got a successful compile, testing
./dcc_original MAIN.EXE

another try, different executable:

This tool was created a long, long time ago, and needs some serious amount of work to be something that can be used on 'random' 16-bit executables
My suggestion would be to see if ghidra or reko will not work better for You 😄
ok, thanks
