Greetings!

I wonder if one of you could share the magic steps to compile pcretest
on lcc-win32.

I had not touched a compiler since 1993...
and spent way too many hours today with cygwin, then mingw.
Now lcc-32 seems promising---at least the hello world it compiles runs.

After downloading the release, I
- added HAVE_CONFIG_H to the compiler's defines for the project
- copied config.h.generic to config.h

The compiler is unhappy:
697: unreachable code
1284: missing prototype for _fileno
1050: undefined reference to _imp_pcre_fullinfo
and many more lines like this.

I just want to run the latest version of pcretest and wouldn't mind
being able to rebuild the binary with new releases.

Looking forward to your insights!

With gratitude,

Andy
