Hi Steph, I don't see any resons why the builddef.bat should'nt run on win98. It is a very simple file. I do think that the @echo off statement should be moved to the top of the file though. All output is redirected to the phpts.def file, and this include the comments with the current configuration. It would also be possible to get rid of this file all together and just code this in the dsp file. - Frank

I put it there in anticipation of adding symbols from libxml2 and iconv. However, I have been working on a new build system for win32 that should (hopefully) solve most problems provided that you have windows script host installed. It will also remove the dependency on Visual Studio (the IDE), so that you only need the MS compiler tools (freely available with the win32 platform SDK). --Wez. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Frank M.
