Using nmake.exe under \Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin to compile the project.In fact ,if you ever program a linux program,you will quite farmiliar with the Makefile.
Using nmake /? to see more detail!Or You could refer to the MSDN
*.mdp是老版本VC的工程文件，类似于现在的*.dsw,*.dsp*.mak是命令行编译文件。
在新版本的VC中打开*.mdp文件，会提示你是否转换成新的格式，回答是就行了。 这个问题在 DirectX编程时非常普遍，MSDN里面的工程文件都是这样的。在新版本VC中，你可以把现在的*.dsp输出为*.mak,点击"Project"-->"Export makefile(s)"即可。nmake命令的用法如下：Option Action /A Forces build of all evaluated targets, even if not out-of-date with respect to dependents. Does not force build of unrelated targets. /B Forces build even if timestamps are equal. Recommended only for very fast systems (resolution of two seconds or less). /C Suppresses default output, including nonfatal NMAKE errors or warnings, timestamps, and NMAKE copyright message. Suppresses warnings issued by /K. /D Displays timestamps of each evaluated target and dependent and a message when a target does not exist. Useful with /P for debugging a makefile. Use !CMDSWITCHES to set or clear /D for part of a makefile. /E Causes environment variables to override makefile macro definitions. /F filename Specifies filename as a makefile. Spaces or tabs can precede filename. Specify /F once for each makefile. To supply a makefile from standard input, specify a dash (–) for filename, and end keyboard input with either F6 or CTRL+Z. /HELP, /? Displays a brief summary of NMAKE command-line syntax. /I Ignores exit codes from all commands. To set or clear /I for part of a makefile, use !CMDSWITCHES. To ignore exit codes for part of a makefile, use a dash (–) command modifier or .IGNORE. Overrides /K if both are specified. /K Continues building unrelated dependencies, if a command returns an error. Also issues a warning and returns an exit code of 1. By default, NMAKE halts if any command returns a nonzero exit code. Warnings from /K are suppressed by /C; /I overrides /K if both are specified. /N Displays but does not execute commands; preprocessing commands are executed. Does not display commands in recursive NMAKE calls. Useful for debugging makefiles and checking timestamps. To set or clear /N for part of a makefile, use !CMDSWITCHES. /NOLOGO Suppresses the NMAKE copyright message. /P Displays information (macro definitions, inference rules, targets, .SUFFIXES list) to standard output, and then runs the build. If no makefile or command-line target exists, it displays information only. Use with /D to debug a makefile. /Q Checks timestamps of targets; does not run the build. Returns a zero exit code if all targets are up-to-date and a nonzero exit code if any target is not. Preprocessing commands are executed. Useful when running NMAKE from a batch file. /R Clears the .SUFFIXES list and ignores inference rules and macros that are defined in the Tools.ini file or that are predefined. /S Suppresses display of executed commands. To suppress display in part of a makefile, use the @ command modifier or .SILENT. To set or clear /S for part of a makefile, use !CMDSWITCHES. /T Updates timestamps of command-line targets (or first makefile target) and executes preprocessing commands but does not run the build. /U Must be used in conjunction with /N. Dumps inline NMAKE files so that the /N output can be used as a batch file. /X filename Sends NMAKE error output to filename instead of standard error. Spaces or tabs can precede filename. To send error output to standard output, specify a dash (–) for filename. Does not affect output from commands to standard error. /Y Disables batch-mode inference rules. When this option is selected, all batch-mode inference rules are treated as regular inference rules.
