Message-ID: <794@watdcsu.UUCP> Date: Wed, 2-Jan-85 09:31:20 EST Article-I.D.: watdcsu.794 Posted: Wed Jan 2 09:31:20 1985 Date-Received: Thu, 3-Jan-85 01:07:08 EST Reply-To: haapanen@watdcsu.UUCP (Tom Haapanen [DCS]) Organization: U of Waterloo, Ontario Lines: 20 Xref: watmath net.lang.c:3642 net.micro.pc:3057 I have the DeSmet C Compiler, version 2.4, and I have found that using the -l option in bind causes problems. Specifically, assume all my source and object code is on the a disk (sorry, no har disk :-( ), and my compiler, linker and library are on the b disk. Then, I will do: c88 foo -db bind foo -lb The c88 works fine, but using bind with the -lb option causes unradable files 90% of the time; when I try running foo, DOS gives me 'Data error reading drive A:'. I'm using a Hyperion (256K, 2 DSDD drives) with PC-DOS 2.10. My programs work fine if I move the library onto the A drive; alas, this uses up about 40K of disk space... Has anybody else had this problem? I'd like to report this to CWare, but I'm thinking that maybe it's just a fluke... Please reply by mail. Thanks! \tom haapanen watmath!watdcsu!haapanen
