Building the Run-Time Libraries

There are two batch files provided for building the C run-time libraries from the source code included with Visual C++:

• \Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\CRT\SRC\BLDWIN95.BAT, used when building on Windows 95
  
  
• \Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\CRT\SRC\BLDNT.CMD, used when building on Windows NT

When using either BLDNT.CMD or BLDWIN95.BAT, set the V5TOOLS environment variable to the root of the Visual C++ installation (such as C:\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin). If this environment variable is not set, an error message will be displayed and the batch file will exit.
