Resource compilation

This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; and to Harlequin MultiRIP but not Harlequin Core

Use the resource compiler rc to produce a .res file from the source .rc file. In order to identify them, the .rc file usually includes a header file (also generated by the resource editor) which is shared between the .rc file and the .c files which use the resources. You should cd to the directory containing the .rc file.

For Visual C++:

rc -r -iinc -fowhatever .res whatever. rc

Where:

• -r means produce a .res file
• -i says where the header file is located
• -fo identifies the output file
