Message-ID: <2801@gitpyr.gatech.EDU> Date: Mon, 15-Dec-86 14:11:50 EST Article-I.D.: gitpyr.2801 Posted: Mon Dec 15 14:11:50 1986 Date-Received: Wed, 17-Dec-86 04:44:33 EST Reply-To: tynor@gitpyr.UUCP (Steve Tynor) Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology Lines: 27 Help! I'm trying to Pexec the TDI Modula compiler and linker (MODULA.PRG and LINKER.PRG). I've tried using both Pexec from Alcyon C and GEMDOS.Exec from Modula2. The Symptoms: The compiler/linker is invoked and if there are no errors (like file not found, or complilation errors...) then it returns, and all is well. If, on the other hand, an error does occur, then the Mouse is ignored (I've enabled it with an AES call, but I can't click on the [CANCEL] button. I have to use thekey...) Also: the compiler/linker never returns! A shrink-box happens, but control is never returned to the Pexecing program! As much as I like Modula2, the TDI desktop is not suitable for large programs (mine has >20 modules)... I need some type of MAKE facility, but I'm beginning to wonder if it's possible... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= If the facts do not conform to the theory, they must be disposed of.
