Readme file for using Borland C/C++ Compiler version 4.0 to build 
user DLLs for Mathcad.

The instructions below apply to the Integrated Development 
Environment IDE.

To build a sample: (samples are under SOURCES subdirectory of your 
compiler directory).  Each sample has a .ide project file and a .dsw file 
associated with it.  To build a sample project just start the IDE, open 
the project and Rebuild it.


How to build a new project in the Integrated Development 
Environment IDE:

 Start a new project and select:
   Target Type : 	  	Dynamic Library
   Platform :   		Win32
   Standard Libraries : 	Static(Unless Borland's runtime libraries 
                                will be available when running the DLL in 
                                which case you can use Dynamic to get a 
				smaller DLL file)
Choose a project path and name and a target name (target is your 
DLL)
 
Under Advanced options click off .def and .rc unless you are going to 
supply your own   .def and/or .rc files.  Also choose the No Source 
Node under Initial Nodes.

Add your source files to the project.

Add the library file MCADUSER.LIB in the BORLAND\LIB directory 
to the project.

Under Options Project Directories:
Add the directory where the include file MCADINCL.H for 
BORLAND is located, e.g. 
C:\WINMCAD\USEREFI\BORLAND\INCLUDE (or ..\..\INCLUDE 
in relative notation for the samples) to the Include path.
Optionally:
Add the USEREFI directory, e.g. C:\WINMCAD\USEREFI (or ..\..\..\ 
in relative notation for the samples) to the Final path.

Borland does not support 8 byte alignment of structures.  Use 4 byte 
alignment instead.

Now you are ready to build the DLL.  You can do this by choosing 
"Build all" under the menu option Project.
  
After building you have to move the DLL to the USEREFI directory 
under MATHCAD's default directory, e.g. C:\WINMCAD\USEREFI.  
This would be done automatically if you have specified the USEREFI 
path under the Final path.


Comments:
  The DLL entry point has to be called DllEntryPoint.
  For more information see the sample source files and the 
README.TXT file in USEREFI subdirectory.
