Using GP142 With The Borland C Compilers

Instructions For Building The GP142 Demo Using Borland C++ Version 4.5x and 5.x

  1. Unpack the self-extracting archive in a clean directory. Make sure the directory name contains no space, i.e "My HomeWork" is not acceptable.
  2. Run Borland C. Goto the Project menu, select Open Project. The file dialog pops up.
  3. Choose the directory where you run the self-extracting archive and select gp142.ide in the File Name box. Click Okay.
  4. Goto the Project menu, choose Build All.
  5. This should generate the gp142.exe.
    Notice: Do not open gp142.ide from the File/Open menu.
    Ignore all warnings during the build process.

For Borland 3.x users you need to create the project file yourself:

  1. Unpack the self-extracting archive in a clean directory. Make sure the directory name contains no space, i.e "My HomeWork" is not acceptable.
  2. Start Borland C.
  3. Make a new project in the directory where you run the self extracting archive.
  4. Remove all the default files added to your project by Borland C.
  5. Add GP142.c, GP142dem.c and GP142.def into your project.
  6. Rebuild everything and you should get gp142.exe.
