SYMPTOMS
========
When attempting to build the Visual C++ 6.0 CRT Libraries, the build fails
immediately with an error similar to the following:
NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'st'
-or-
NMAKE : fatal error U1064: MAKEFILE not found and no target specified
CAUSE
=====
After selecting the option to copy the C-Runtime (CRT) source code selected
during Visual C++ 6.0 installation, the setup program does not copy the
following files that are necessary to build the CRT Libraries:
MAKEFILE
MAKEFILE.SUB
MAKEFILE.INC
RESOLUTION
==========
The missing files are available on Disk 1 of the Visual C++ CD in the
VC98\CRT\SRC directory.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The Makefile contains all the necessary information about which switches are to
be used when rebuilding the CRT libraries.
The CRT source is provided primarily for debugging purposes. Microsoft does not
recommend rebuilding the CRT libraries and may not be able to provide support
for problems encountered when using rebuilt CRT libraries.
