I'm having a terrible problem linking my program! I am using Microsoft
C and Assembler. I am trying to link in an assembly module with my C modules
and I keep getting "Fixup overflow ..." errors when I link. After much barking
up the wrong tree I had the compiler generate the .ASM via the "-Fa" option,
then assemble the .ASM file with MASM then link-- and I still got the same
error. Mind you If I did not use "-Fa" and compiled and linked in one step
I got no link errors. I am thinking that the compiler passes some secret
options to the assembler that I don't know about to make things work. The
options I used were:
masm /MX /ML
I also added the "/A",but that didn't help either. My compile command line
is:
cl -Alfu -K -Od
Any suggestions???

Since you are compiling for a large model, you must declare all subroutines as far not near and handle all pointers as segement/offset pairs. Peter Ashwood-Smith University of Toronto.

After much barking [etc.] I have seen this error message a number of times, and unless I'm mistaken, in each case the problem was a conflict between global symbols, one each in code and data segments. My personal favorite was a global variable called "exit".
