Hi Ali Ghiasian,
I think that you read the webpage at http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns32-build.html
(How to Compile Ns2 on Windows Platform) where it's wrote:
The file mkd.bat in TCl8.3.2\win and TK8.3.2\win needs to be modified. Every instance of "md" should be changed to "mkdir". This is because the DOS command to make a directory is "mkdir" and not "md" So, you brougth these changes in
"mkd.bat". However, I think that it isn't necessary: in fact, I have
compiled TCL8.3.2 without problem and without bring these changes to the
"mkd.bat" file.
Therefore, to my mind, you can avoid that
note.
However, the problem can be this other: in the
"makefile.vc" file present in "win" subdirectory of "tcl", you can find
"INSTALLDIR="; this option is used when (at prompt) you write:
nmake -f makefile.vc
install
Unfortunately, in the building process, the
directory specified in INSTALLDIR is NOT created: you must do it!
