Hi Michael,

only adjusting the pathnames in "config-pd-msvc" and vst.dsp (which if I understand correctly doesn't have any influence on the nmake????) and runnning the build-batch I get the following error, which I find qute confusing:

Then I realized, that there was always a blank line like: clean

A general question would be: how can I use a *.dsp-file on a console with nmake (I am used to doing console-compilations on linux, but not on windows), since I seem to be unable to get your *.dsp-files integrated to my MSVC (is it a language problem, since I have a German version? MSVC just keeps claiming, that your files are not MSVCgenerated files.....)

methinks that there is some problem with cvs. I don't know if it's a general problem or if it's just on your side. It seems that your checked out files have a wrong line feed for your Windows system which confuses nmake and the compiler. I'll have a look into it.

what gave me a vst~.dll not really working.   Where is this /OPT:REF being set? I cant find it anywhere in the makefile. What about the conflict with LIBC?

Normally, the libc conflict does not have serious consequences but it's not necessary that there is a conflict. I'll try to resolve it.

I am a musician and not a professional programmer. So I have to apologize, if some of my questions just don't comply to what is expected from a programmer.

I'm fine with that. I think it's a bad habit to rely on all PD (which is an audio software for people making music) users being programmers. I'm striving not to.

best greetings, T
