I am trying to use BC++ 4.51 to compile an example provided by
OpenDWG (opendwg.org) that is suppose to read an AutoCAD DWG
file.  It requires compiling the source and then linking to
2 libraries that are provided.  There isn't alot of
documentation that says how the project should be configured.
But the program is just suppose to open the DWG file, read
the DWG attributes and print out some information.  There is
no attempt to create windows, so I don't think it needs a
GUI.

Also, I haven't used the BC++ compiler much and that was years
ago.

If I chose the target to be Windows 3.x and the Large model,
then I get the following link error:
Compiling ..\adexr\ADEXR.C: 
.... 
Linking adexr.exe: 
Linker Warning: No module definition file specified: using defaults 
Linker Fatal: 32-bit record encountered in library file ..\adb5n.lib in module adfonts 

If I chose the target to be Win32 and model of either GUI or
Console, then I get the following link error: 
Compiling ..\ADEXR\ADEXR.C: 
.... 
Linking adexr.exe: 
Linker Fatal: 16 bit segments not supported in module d:\p\ad27\adfonts.c 

If someone can provide a little insight on what I should try 
next or options to configure, I would truly appreciate it.

Thanks, 
Kenny
