http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/search?string=msdos&case=on&find=%2Fdirectory%2Fc-sdk%2F Mark, is MS-DOS still supported? Or could you remove its support?
I added Rich and Anton to the bug CC. I don't think MSDOS has ever been supported inside the Mozilla C SDK code We used to have code for 16-bit Windows, but I doubt anyone cares about that now.
Yes, let's get rid of the msdos code.
http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/find?string=%2Fdirectory%2Fc-sdk%2Fldap%2Fexamples%2F.*%5C.mak%24 /directory/c-sdk/ldap/examples/windows/winldap/LDAP16.MAK /directory/c-sdk/ldap/examples/windows/winldap/winldap.mak Should these two be removed. Or replaced? Or should the whole directory be removed? /directory/c-sdk/ldap/examples/win32.mak This one should stay, iiuc.

It looks like that directory is still valid - winldap.mak looks like a valid Visual C++ nmake Makefile. I don't know if it works. The LDAP16*.* files can definitely be removed.

Serge, is this still a good first bug? I'm following up on older mentored/good first bugs. Thanks!

(In reply to Liz Henry :lizzard from comment #9) > Serge, is this still a good first bug? I would answer "yes, in its (LDAP, make) context". For example, I assume another easy step could be to remove http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/find?string=%2Fldap%2Fsdks%2Fc-sdk%2Fconfig%2Fwin.*\.mk {{ /ldap/sdks/c-sdk/config/WIN32.mk <-- (Keep this one !) /ldap/sdks/c-sdk/config/WIN95.mk /ldap/sdks/c-sdk/config/WINNT.mk /ldap/sdks/c-sdk/config/win16.mk }}

It looks like most was "fixed". (Related to Bug 1126607?) Remaining (at least): https://dxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/search?q=msdos.h+path:ldap/c-sdk/libraries/libldap/ "3 results from the comm-central tree" and https://dxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/search?q=win16+path:ldap/c-sdk/libraries/libldap/ "1 result from the comm-central tree"

I would be interested in working on this bug if its still an issue and unassigned.
