Build failure when building PDcurses DLL library for Window console
Working on Windows XP, and using the Visula Studio 10 command line tools set.
Compiling the library for Windows console using nmake: nmake -f makefile.vc dll=y. The build fails because of the variable PLATFORM which isn't defined in makefile.vc.
In makefile.vc, this variable defines the option -machine for the linker.
To fix the issue I have added the following lines in makefile.vc:
#defaut cpu architecture required for option ddl=yes !ifndef PLATFORM PLATFORM = X86 !endif
Now the pdcurses.dll build is successfully.
Oups!, there is a typo mistake in the comment line that should be:#defaut cpu ...... for option dll=yes.
