I finally got the time to reinstall my broken VC++ 6.0 and update to SP4, so now I can
build beta builds instead of relying on the binary kits.
I followed the build instructions in nt/README, and opted to include PNG support. I
successfully built zlib and PNG, but when I went to build xemacs itself, I got the
following error. It looks like it is trying to treat zlib as an object instead of an
include directory, but the nmake args look right to me. Any ideas?
nmake -nologo -f minitar.mak ZLIB="E:\My Documents\Development\xemacs-21
.2.35\jaux\zlib" NT="..\nt" LIB_SRC="..\lib-src"
cl -Fo..\lib-src\minitar.obj -c ..\nt\minitar.c -I E:\My Documents\Devel
opment\xemacs-21.2.35\jaux\zlib
