- BORLAND/: Borland C++ 4.52 (chosen over 4.5 by byte-match: CODE/RP/CW32.LIB
is identical to 4.52's install lib). BCC32/TLINK32/TLIB/MAKE run natively on
Win11; CODE/BT/OPT.MAK is the shipped BTL4OPT.EXE's exact flag recipe
(extender = Borland PowerPack DPMI32, not Phar Lap TNT).
- restoration/source410/: the literal 1995-form reconstruction of the missing
BT game source (never mixed into CODE/). Round 1-3 state:
* 6 of 10 surviving original TUs COMPILE CLEAN under the period toolchain
(BTMSSN, BTCNSL, BTSCNRL, BTTEAM, BTL4MODE, BTL4ARND) - first builds
since 1996.
* BT_L4/BTL4APP.CPP pilot reconstruction: 12/12 functions, Fail() lands on
its binary-recorded line 400 exactly.
* BT/BTCNSL.HPP: console wire IDs recovered from the binary's ctors
(Killed=9, Damaged=10, ScoreUpdate=13, DeathWithoutHonor=15 [T1];
TeamScore=12 flagged [T4]).
* MUNGA/: 8 engine-header backfills back-dated from the BT412 WinTesla tree
(VDATA numbering decomp-verified; AUDREND's OpenAL-era virtual removed -
the period compiler is the drift detector).
* Tooling: backdate.py (WinTesla->1995 header transform), compile410.sh
(per-TU verification sweep under authentic OPT.MAK flags).
* README: corrected roadmap - MECH.HPP is the capstone grown with the mech
TU reconstructions; BTREG.CPP green = the header-family milestone.

WELCOME TO BORLAND C++ RUNTIME LIBRARY SOURCE 6.5
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This README contains information on support for the Borland C++
|
|
Runtime Library source code.
|
|
|
|
BUILDING THE RTL
|
|
________________
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: In order to build the libraries, the RTL tools
|
|
directory must be present on your path. These tools are located
|
|
in the tools subdirectory of the directory where the source
|
|
was installed. For example:
|
|
|
|
If your Borland C++ root installation directory is C:\BC45, the RTL
|
|
source was installed into C:\BC45\SOURCE\RTL and C:\BC45\SOURCE\RTL\TOOLS
|
|
must be added to your path.
|
|
|
|
You must have TASM.EXE installed from Borland Turbo Assembler before you
|
|
can build the Run Time Library.
|
|
|
|
To build the rtl, move to the directory where the source was installed
|
|
and type build.bat. An help screen is displayed allowing you to choose
|
|
which part of the RTL you want to build. For example :
|
|
|
|
C:\BC45\SOURCE\RTL\BUILD ALL
|
|
|
|
will build everything.
|
|
|
|
NB : if the RTL was not installed in the C:\BC45\SOURCE\RTL directory
|
|
you will need to modify the file RULES.MAK to set the RTLROOT variable
|
|
accordingly.
|
|
Due to limitations in spawning a 16 bit application by a 32 bit
|
|
application under Windows NT, you cannot build the 16 bit libraries
|
|
under Windows NT.
|
