How to compile FileZilla with vc++6?

#1 Post by henry » 2006-05-25 09:33

In vc6, how can I create a project for FZ3? There is a file "FileZilla.vcproj" in the sources, but I don't know how to use it.
Anybody can help? thanks!

VC++6 is not supported as it generates faulty code which crashes FileZilla frequently.

How can I get the library libidn for windows, I open the project file with VC7.0, fix some tiny errors and pass the compile stage, but the linker tell me that I need library libidn, I find it on the web, but only linux lib, not windows, how can I continue my work? thanks

Last time I checked libidn has to be compiled using mingw. Have a look at this thread, it describes how to compile libidn: http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/forum/ ... php?t=1227

Afterwards just copy the generated libidn.a into a direcory the VC linker searches.

thanks for the quick reply, I have compiled a libidn.a and libiconv.a using mingw, and put them to the right place, the linker recognise them, but another error message coming, it seems that the linker can't parse an external symbol __alloca, which is used in the function _libiconvlist, in libiconv.a, maybe there is another library needed. I don't know which library include the alloca function, would you mind give me some hint, thanks:)
