Hi, I am working on a small project, written in Turbo-C, and would like to add TCP/IP connectivity to it. I decided to give SUN's PC-NFS a try, using their programmer's toolkit. Unfortunately, this toolkit is only available for Microsoft-C. I tried to link it with Turbo-C anyway, but that doesn't work: tlink gives 'libh.lib: unable to open file'. When I copied libh.lib from the microsoft C compiler kit (version 4.00), I get: '(music symbol): unable to open file'. Does anyone have experience with this? Has anyone succeeded this? Is it possible to patch the library somehow? Tips, hints, anything? I will post a summary if I find a working solution.

In the meantime, we have written a "lead-in" program in Microsoft C which sets up a software interrupt vector and then spawns the program specified on the command line. One has to be cognizant of stack usage in the various programs, but otherwise this method works. It is a kludge, however, and a better way would be to have a Turbo C version of the PC-NFS library. /craig P.S.

Do you mean "geoff@East.Sun.COM" or "geoff@hinode.East.Sun.COM"? Our newsreader insists on plugging my nodename into the "Reply-To" path, which causes some mailers to complain. Normally I edit it out, as I did here, but I confess that I occasionally forget. [If "geoff@East.Sun.COM" doesn't work, try "garnold@sun.com", and send me the mailer-daemon output to show to Bill Nowicki et al.] We recognize that Turbo C is important, as are MSC 5.1 (soon 6.0) and Watcom C. Stay tuned.

Sometimes the Microsoft C object files contain strange things that only their linker can handle. -- Sincerely Yours Tris Orendorff .......................................................................
