Subject: [ruby-talk:29770] Compiling 1.7 with MSVC

Hi,

I'm trying to compile the latest stable snapshot using MSVC but I'm
getting the following error:


object.c
        cl -nologo -DNT=1 -Zi -MD -O2b2xg- -G5 -I. -I./.. -I. -I./.. -I./../missing -DLIBRUBY_SO=\"mswin32-ruby16.dll\"
-c .\..\pack.c
pack.c
        byacc  ./../parse.y
'byacc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'byacc' : return code '0x1'
Stop.

This seems strange because I can build 1.6.5 on the same machine with
no problems and I couldn't see any great differences in the makefiles
for the 2 versions.
