hmmm... missing source files??

ok.. i installed nsis 1.98 with everything...

and thought i could recompile and mess with the code.. but.. when i try to recompile is says..

C:\Program\Nsis\Source\exedata.cpp(18) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'exehead/Release/icon.h': No such file or directory 
so i check the exehead/release folder to find that there is none.. how come? anybody knows why or have i downloaded an old version where there files where forgotten?

can someone help me?

Icon.h is created during compile time using bin2h.exe. I think your problem is that you chose to compile only the header. Select the makensis project as your working project and then try to compile.

Are you using VC++?

here's what i did... and yes.. i'm using VC++ 6.0

went Start -> Programs -> NSIS -> MakeNSIS project workspace

that started VC++.. the i marked makenssi files as Active Project. then i hit batch build and selected makenssi files

AHH!! sorry for wasting your time... me stupid.. i didn't select exeheader Win32 Release...

it's working now... thank you for responding to my question.
