ok, i'm runnng wwiv bbs software, and it's modded by borland c, well all my code is good, i've also tried other code too, same problem. I compile good,
but when i go to make, linker brings up

i've seen some things about name mangling but every time i try to add
extern "C" to the code it gives me code errors, because it does this
with more than one set of code i'm starting to think there is a bc setup problem, but i can't find one.....

The only thing I could imagine is that you forgot to include a *.h containing all the symbol definitions.

The problem you're showing is that you are calling routines with the
names given above in the module BBS.C and the linker can't find them
in any of the modules you're linking with BBS.C. You _are_ linking in
other modules containing the ncessary routines? From the error message
it looks to me as if you are compiling BBS.C and not including in the
link the modules that include all the referenced routines as they are
not standard library routines.

So, my first suggestion is to link in the modules containing the code
for the required functions. If yoe sre including the required modules,
if they are not 'C' code you will have to change the declarations of
all the functions to make them 'C' _or_ make BBS.C into BBS.CPP which
will cause it to use the C++ name mangling for the function names.

this i gonna sound silly but I'm still suprised I figurd it out,
all of my problems were based on the fact that my compiler and source
code were placed in an area that had "bad sectors" do i removed all bad
data, fixed the sectors, re-installed evverything, now it works :)
...never would of guessed to blame the hardware....
