VC++ 6.0 compilation error of TKStep.dll

Hi All, When I tried to used VC++ 6.0 to compile TKStep.dll on NT 4.0, the following error occurred (in both Release and Debug option):

.... RWStepShape_RWGeometricallyBoundedSurfaceShapeRepresentation.cxx

cl.exe @e:\TEMP\nlz00298. RWStepShape_RWGeometricallyBoundedWireframeShapeRepresentation.cxx tkstep.mak(34185) : fatal error U1054: cannot create inline file 'e:\TEMP\nmz002 98' Stop.

The e:\ drive has 50G free space and I did the following procedures before the compilation: (1) delete all *.obj in .\Release directory (2) call nmake -f tkstep.mak clean (3) delete tkstep.opt and tkstep.ncb in \WindowsNT directory.

After finishing these three steps, I typed in nmake -f tkstep.mak

In addition, the RAM of my PC is 458 M and I set additional 3G virtual memory. Can anyone give some advices ? Thanks, Jie.

Hi, I'm not sure if it really helps - but did you try to compile the libs in the IDE? I did so and no errors....

Hi Patrik,

Thanks for your email which encouraged me to have conducted another try and got succeeded in the compilation. The problem is that on my pc both VC++5.0 and VC++6.0 were installed. This kind of coexistence somehow made VC++6.0 not working well for a big project. After switcing to VC++5.0, everything became fine.

Once again, many thanks for your response,

Jie.
