Have you got it to work? (with MERV sources I mean). I have tried both the gcc295 and the mingw32 versions. With a lot of fiddling I got one of the windows samples to compile, the dos/console sample also compiles, but any other projects don't. Am I missing some lib's or something, or is it just win98?

I personally never dealt with MERV, since i have many other working bot cores i've dealt with (including my own), which have compiled fine. Try posting some of the outputed errors, it could be something as simple as needing to include some more lib's as you suggested. (Please attached the outputed data as a .txt instead of posting as text in a message, since i'm sure it will probably be more than just 5 lines.)

After searching Google I'm downloading 50megs of Watcom C/C++ because it's free and is supposed to come with MFC (I'm in no hurry). http://www.openwatcom.org/ftp/watcom-c-11.0c.exe

OK, here is the compile "log". Dev-Cpp doesn't seem to output a .txt file or any other kind of file with logging information in it (maybe a checkbox somewhere?). This was trying to compile the merv tutorial. I used the "Import MS Visual C++" button and Dev-C++ 4.9.7.0 (so that's beta 5 I think).

Umm.. the Compilation Successful looks like it worked there for you. All you need to do is link it together. What you need to do is instead of just compiling it, is to use the Build operation, which should make it into a dll for you.

What about "Execution terminated", and the fact that there are no .o files? I can't find a "Build/Link" button, just Compile, and Rebuild All (theres also Compile & Run, Run and Debug).

Dev-C++ is a failure at this.
With MSVS6, on the other hand, ive already meade a simple plugin.
After convincing the computer guy at my school to let me FTP from my account, i started the DL from SOS. Turns out, he had a friggin copy, and let me copy it. All that work for that.........
