DOS ain't dead

On 25 Sep. 2010, Agner released ObjConv 2.10.

Website: http://www.agner.org/optimize/#objconv
Download: http://www.agner.org/optimize/objconv.zip
Manual: http://www.agner.org/optimize/objconv-instructions.pdf

It's written in C++, GPL-licensed, and a quick try by me seems to show it compiling correctly under DJGPP. (Untested if default Win32 binary still runs under HX.)

I tried to compile under my DJGPP/GCC 4.4.4 but got error in one file:

mac2mac.cpp:159: error: prototype for 'int CMAC2MAC<TMAC_header, TMAC_segment_co
mmand, TMAC_section, TMAC_nlist, MInt>::NewSymbolIndex(int32)' does not match an
y in class 'CMAC2MAC<TMAC_header, TMAC_segment_command, TMAC_section, TMAC_nlist
, MInt>'
converters.h:432: error: candidate is: int CMAC2MAC<TMAC_header, TMAC_segment_co
mmand, TMAC_section, TMAC_nlist, MInt>::NewSymbolIndex(int)

I tried again, first the smart way, then exactly from build.sh (well, I changed "g++" to "gpp"), and it still worked. And IIRC, there was a similar error from a much older ObjConv version that didn't work by default in DJGPP. So you're probably accidentally using that older version. Make sure it's dated Sep. 25 of this year.

No, I just download it from your link, renamed build.sh to build.bat and change g++ to gpp. Thats all. I didn't compiled objconv before. Never mind, can you upload your binary?

I even tried again with a fresh but minimal DJDEV 2.03p2, G++ 3.4.4, BNU 2.17, still worked. So it must be something on your end (shouldn't be too hard to reinstall DJGPP). But anyways, here's the build:

P.S. Drop.io is dead (go figure, nothing lasts).

Thx. Maybe... I have djdev 2.04 but I don't compile C++ code very often so I don't know if it is 100% functional. I'm happy with non-object C :)

What's new:

???

Bugs:

- Disassembly of PE hangs on large (> cca 100 KiB, even itself) files (both Win32 and DGJPP binary, also 2.09, it even hangs on Windaube XP too, hogging much of both CPU and memory)
