OK, that's my mistake. In the released source code, there is no implementation for DoAssert. Please change the definition of macro assert in core/Common.h to no-op. And rebuild all projects.

Thank you for your reply.

I borrowed an Enterprise version from a friend.

I have no problem to build release version of winScp 4.0. However, when I tried to build the debug version, I got the following error
[Linker Error] Unresolved external '__fastcall DoAssert(char *, char *, int)' referenced from C:\WINSCP\400\WINDOWS\USERINTERFACE.OBJ

The steps that I build debug version are
1. Open each project (the .bpr file) and set the compiler option (under Project's option) to "Full Debug".

Any idea how to solve this error.

Thank you.

However, I got the error saying "Can't find afx.h" when FileZilla is built.

I find out that the personal version Builder 6 doesn't have /include/mfs folder, where afx.h resides.

Any idea how to solve it?

See my previous post 4.0 beta cannot be compiled with Personal edition of C++Builder because of absence of MFC library used by FileZilla.

You would be able to compile 3.8.2 with the Personal edition. 4.0 beta as it is now cannot be compiled with Personal edition, because of the FileZilla code. I'm planing to make FileZilla-free build scripts in the 4.0.1.

I am reading your code and noticed that for back-end you are using putty and filezilla. From what I read in this Forum, you use Putty for SCP implementation. Do I understand correctly? What else for you are using Putty implementation?

I'm using PuTTY for SSH implementation. SCP implementation is mostly mine, it just partially inspired by PuTTY.

What is the reason that you choose to use FileZilla? Is this your own FiileZilla or the same filezilla as filezilla-project.org

It is filezilla from filezilla.sourceforge.net. filezilla-project.org is for FZ3, which I'm not using.

The structure of Winscp, I understand, is

WinSCP GUI Code <->
FileZilla <->
Putty, your SFTP <->
System Call (via Borland Library)
. Am I right? Excuse me if I am totally wrong. Can you give out a simple picture of Winscp architecture.

The layers are like:
1) WinSCP GUI
2) My SFTP/SCP code and wrapper for FileZilla FTP code
3) PuTTY (SSH) and FileZilla (FTP)

OK.

Hello!

I bought C++ builder 6 and download the 4.0 code. However,
I ran into the following compilation problems. :( Any ideas why?

Thank you.

I plan to purchase Borland C++ builder so I can build and trace the execute flow. (Also get to know about Borland)

Please note that I use C++ Builder 6 for WinSCP. I doubt it compiles in newer versions. And I'm not sure if Borland sells version 6. It is quite old.

Just open each project file (.bpr) in C++Builder and go to project options. There is preset button "Debug". Then recompile.

C++ Builder is IDE for Windows, if that answers your question.

First of all, I want to say that WinScp is a great application and well-done job. That is why I am learning the source code as a good example of network application.

Can you tell me in advance that how to build debuggable version of WinScp? I never use Borland C++ builder befor. I am an UNIX Posix person and going to do something project on Windows.
