Subject Sarting with Firebird on WinXP C++
Author d2denis
Hello everybody.

I just start with Firebird database
on Windows XP using Visual C++ 5.0
I dont want to use Delphi.

I downloaded Firebird-1.0.0.796-Win32.exe (final release)
and installed it (default full installation)


I wanted to run the examples but I've got some difficulties

First of all, I changed the 2 paths as mentionned
IBASE= f:\progra~1\firebird
MSCDIR= f:\progra~1\DevStudio\VC

And then try to run the makefile with this commande
nmake -f makefile.msc all
showing this messages:

Your user name and password are not defined.
Ask your database administrator to
set up a Firebird login.
Use CONNECT or CREATE DATABASE to specify a database

f:\progra~1\firebird\lib\gds32_ms.lib : fatal error
LNK1106: invalid file or disk full: cannot seek to 0x3c8839c4
NMAKE : fatal error U1077:


So, what's wrong with this GDS32_MS.LIB ?
What am I suposed to do first ?

Thanks to who can help.
