Re: Win32 build problems

[Charley Manske <cmanske@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've run into this problem with the VC4.2 compiler, and it seems to be
the precompiled headers. I made a batch file to zap PCH stuff:
rem START OF BATCH FILE
set d=y:\x86Dbg
if NOT %1.==. set d=%1
del %d%\*.pch
if exist %d%\vcp0.idb del %d%\vcp0.idb
if exist y:\ns\cmd\winfe\mkfiles32\x86Dbg\vcp0.idb del
y:\ns\cmd\winfe\mkfiles32\x86Dbg\vcp0.idb
if exist y:\x86Dbg\vcp0.idb del y:\x86Dbg\vcp0.idb
if %1.==. del y:\ns\cmd\winfe\mkfiles32\x86Dbg\*.pch
set d=
rem END OF BATCH FILE
This assumes my tree is on disk Y:, or you feed the object file directory
as the first param.
You often have to delete the .OBJ file for the source file being compiled
when it crashed.
