Please buy or download one of the many Visual C++ versions, or one of the Windows SDKs that include a linker.<br>Once installed, they should put a link on the start menu that launches a cmd/console/command line with %PATH% set to include link.exe.<br>I'll make this a little easier maybe, but you still need a Microsoft linker.<br><br>Options include but are not limited to:<br>http://www.microsoft.com/express/vc/<br> This might nag you to register but I think to just use the command line you don't have to.<br>http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=E6E1C3DF-A74F-4207-8586-711EBE331CDC<br> (see how it says "including compilers")<br>some of these:<br> http://mssdk.orderport.net/22221848/showall.asp<br><br> - Jay<br><br><br>> Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2009 08:55:57 +0200<br>> From: wagner@elegosoft.com<br>> To: m3devel@elegosoft.com<br>> Subject: [M3devel] Fwd: Problems with the linker<br>> <br>> Something for Jay or Randy again... please help to find the correct linker.<br>> <br>> Olaf<br>> <br>> ----- Forwarded message from clever92000@yahoo.com.br -----<br>> Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2009 18:51:48 -0300<br>> From: Cleverson <clever92000@yahoo.com.br><br>> Reply-To: Cleverson <clever92000@yahoo.com.br><br>> Subject: Problems with the linker<br>> To: m3-support@elego.de<br>> <br>> Hello:<br>> <br>> In case my following question can better be answered at the m3devel<br>> mailing list, please subscribe me.<br>> <br>> I'd like to learn Modula-3, so I'm trying to set up CM3 on my Windows XP<br>> system. I'm not sure about the differences between the "bin" and the<br>> "std" cm3 distributions, but from what I could understand, the later<br>> contains more pre-compiled DLL libraries, so I decided to go with it.<br>> <br>> I unpacked the file "cm3-std-NT386-d5.8.1.zip" to the root of my E:<br>> partition, then renamed the root cm3's folder to cm3, then set the PATH<br>> variable to include E:\cm3\bin. When I try to build a hello test<br>> program, I receive an error saying it cannot find the "link" command,<br>> then the linking process fails.<br>> <br>> The installation instructions state that I should have the Windows SDK.<br>> If my problem is actually that I'm missing it, can you point me to where<br>> I can grabe it please?<br>> <br>> Anyways, I'd like to know why cm3 doesn't have its own linker, that it<br>> needs the Windows SDK linker, unlike other language's compilers such as<br>> FreePascal?<br>> <br>> Many thanks for any help<br>> <br>> Cleverson<br>> <br>> <br>> ----- End forwarded message -----<br>> <br>> <br>> -- <br>> Olaf Wagner -- elego Software Solutions GmbH<br>> Gustav-Meyer-Allee 25 / Gebäude 12, 13355 Berlin, Germany<br>> phone: +49 30 23 45 86 96 mobile: +49 177 2345 869 fax: +49 30 23 45 86 95<br>> http://www.elegosoft.com | Geschäftsführer: Olaf Wagner | Sitz: Berlin<br>> Handelregister: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg HRB 77719 | USt-IdNr: DE163214194<br>> <br></body>
