Missing GTWIN.LIB
Posted: Thu Dec 14, 2006 12:25 AM

After downloading the FWH 2.8 files, I installed the xHarbour files and attempted to use HbMake. Items I compiled before with no problems now gives me a "Fatal: Unable to open file 'GTWIN.LIB'."

Looking in the xHarbour Lib folder that library is missing. I attempted to copy it but got errors as the version I copied was from a different version.

How do I get the GTWIN.LIB that will work with the 10/29/2006 release?

Regards,

Ken

Ken,

You have to use GTGUI.lib instead of GTWIN.lib, due to a recent change in Harbour/xHarbour.

Antonio, I am somewhat confused, could you expand on your answer?

It is my understanding that GTWIN is part of the xHarbour package.

The HbMake that was installed also forms part of the xHarbour package.

HbMake automatically calls GTWIN as well as GTGUI, I am not selecting it.

Your response suggests the xHarbour developers made the change. If so then why was the HbMake not changed as well?

Regards,

Ken

Probably they missed such change. You may use the Borland or Microsoft make files that we provide at fwh\makes directory instead of hbmake.

Ken,

Please notice that in our fwh provided makes, you also have to change gtwin.lib into gtgui.lib. We also missed those changes :-(

We have updated them for next fwh build for this month.
