Hi, I installed the compiler, I wrote a simple hello world program and I
compiled it:

sc hello

It compile and doesn't return me any error.

Then I copied the files of the 32 bit DOS development libraries and the
files of the X32 DOS extender, so I tried to compile the same program:

sc hello -mx X32.lib

It compile, but when I try to run the program, it closes immediamently. Why?
Which errors did I make? Please help me... Thanks

P.S. I have got Windows XP

Well, you're running WXP as operating system, but want to run a
DOSX program.
It would be preferable to run an NT program. You actually could
develop the program as an NT console program and once you're
done recompile it as DOSX program and run it on DOS (W95/98)

With Windows XP, Microsoft apparently broke 32 bit DOS extenders. X32 works

There's no need for a dos extender under XP anyway. Just compile:

    sc hello

to create a win32 program, and run it with:

    hello

which should work.

You should compile using the extension .c or .cpp. If no extension is 
entered the compiler will directly call the linker. Try to compile
with
  sc -mx hello.c

While I'm not sure if DOSX programs run on XP I would assume they do. 
What I know is that DOSX programs run on 95/98,ME,NT,2000.
