Internal Developer Server or Workstation for Windows NT 3.5.
Install on Windows 3.5 Advanced Server, Windows NT 4.0, Back Office Suite or 2003 in a Virtual Machine.
Building
For first, make sure that you're meeting following requirements
A virtual machine with Windows 2000 or older OS (up to NT 3.1) At least 15 GB of free space A bit of patience.
Visual C/C++ 2.x with upgrades
Then do the following steps:
Download the NT 3.5's source code and extract it into C:\NT. Otherwise it will won't binplace items and cause some errors. Download the patches with this link: 3.5 Patch Files and extract the NT folder onto the source code folder. Click Yes and replace all files. Open Command Prompt, switch to the C:\NT and write attrib -r -h * /s /d for removing attributes. If you're on Windows XP and newer, just uncheck "Read-only" for folder. Then write public\tools\razzle If it will ask for a file placing, choose "F". It copies a file from ntx86bld folder. You're done!
Note that installations of Visual Studio are NOT recommended, because they will cause build problems.
Changelog
What was changed?
Razzle was edited for supporting any users. Before that Razzle supported only pre-defined users on DEVELOPR folder (ntx86bld, alphachk and so on). Also added OAK\I386 into Path. Most of tools need for compilation were compiled with help of NT 3.5 612 build's SDK tools and NT 3.51's DDK tools. The compilated files were replaced the temporary ones. Some headers were partially fixed, need for compilation. In result, most of components are starting to compile. Fixed the encryption files issue, by porting them from OpenNT source code. Only missing encryption is CBC, but it compiles without that.
Current Issues
At this moment, not all components of WINDOWS folder can be compiled. The wingdip.h file should be replaced and/or fixed with working one. When compiling WINDBG folder, it pops up an error of undefined function export. Some folders, containing custom compilers (for example ` CL.exe for DOS) cannot be compiled with main compiler.
