I need to compile some c++ source, but i am having problems.

I need to compile the source for Antinat-0.90 becuase the sourceforge is having problems with retrieving the installler.

I am probably doing something correct, but i dont kno where to look for the files....
the instructions that antinat gives is to run...

nmake /f makefile.w32

...in the visual studio command prompt

but i dont see any new files...:confused:

To compile the C++ source for Antinat-0.90 using the makefile.w32 on the Visual Studio Command Prompt and not seeing any new files could be due to a few reasons. Here are some steps and tips to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue: 1. Check Output Directory: - Make sure to check if the compiled files are placed in the correct output directory. Sometimes, the compiled binaries might end up in a different directory than where you expect. 2. Verify Command Execution: - Ensure that the nmake command executed successfully without any errors or warnings. Look out for any error messages during the compilation process. 3. Check for Errors: - It's important to examine the output during the compilation...

Sometimes, the compiled binaries might end up in a different directory than where you expect. 2. Verify Command Execution: - Ensure that the nmake command executed successfully without any errors or warnings. Look out for any error messages during the compilation process. 3. Check for Errors: - It's important to examine the output during the compilation process to see if any errors or warnings are reported. Even if the compilation appears to finish without errors, there could still be issues that prevent the expected output from being generated. 4. Review the makefile.w32: - Verify that the makefile.w32 is correctly configured to compile the project. Check if all necessary files are being included, paths are correct, and the build settings are appropriate. 5. Clean and Rebuild: - Sometimes, issues arise due to remnants of previous builds. Try cleaning the project and then rebuilding it to ensure a fresh compilation. 6. Output Files: - After a successful compilation, the output files (executables or libraries) should typically be generated in the same directory as the source files or in a designated output directory specified in the makefile.w32. 7. Debugging: - Use debugging tools provided by Visual Studio to trace the build process and determine if there are any specific issues causing the missing output files. To assist further, you might want to check the output messages from the compilation process for any potential errors. If you encounter specific error messages or need further assistance, feel free to provide more details, and I can offer more targeted help!
