With the tarball from Apache, VC6 project files, workspace doesn't work. Acts like you never opened the file whenopening workspace file and project files say they were not created with Dev Studio. Was 2.2.6 the last for VC6?

It's a unix source, so you have run first "perl lineends.pl" in the toplevel of the source.

Another way to do this is with the GNU zip and unzip utilities.

The commands to fix the line-endings in the .dsp project files are:
Code:
zip.exe -R dsps.zip *.dsp
unzip.exe -a -o dsps.zip

This way is only better when you retrieve the source code using Subversion from the Apache SVN repository.
In this case, lineends.pl clobbers the Subversion stuff because it converts everything, including the files Subversion needs to track changes.
Only the .dsp project files need to have their line-ends fixed. VC6 isn't fussy about the .c and .h files.

And thanks again, I've used it on 2.3 dev as well. Works wonders.

Tom, I understand, but seems less work doing it Steffen's way and I just download tartballs mostly. SVN I'll save for a day in the future, though I understand the benefit of it.
