Is anyone using the Turbo linker (tlink) with Clipper? This are the macros from my makefile that invoke the MS linker (3.61) and for some reason I cannot get tlink to work just by subbing in for LINK and changing the flags. can anyone send/post the tlink command line they are using?? thanks << from my makefile>>> >> >>MS_LINK =main+screen+acctmnt+util+bdoor+help+ndx+debug >>LINK =$(RAM_DISK)\link >># Microsoft (3.61) linker flags >>LFLAGS =/se:512 /noi /noe >> >>$(LINK) $(LFLAGS) $(MS_LINK),main,,$(LIBS) -- ============================================================================== craig curtin email: chinet!csc

Also, you MUST use the TLINK from TURBO C 1.5 (TLINK from TURBOC 2.0 will not work properly with CLIPPER object modules). I use TLINK from DOS command line as follows: TLINK {obj list},{EXE name},,{lib list} This looks like the same command that your macro would use. -- |-----------------------------------------------------------------------| |Glen Midkiff osu-cis!dsacg1!gmidkiff | |From the Internet: gmidkiff@dsacg1.dla.mil | |Phone: (614)-238-9643 @DLA, Systems Automation Center, Columbus, Oh. |

I use Clipper and Tlink from Turbo C 2.0 all the time with no problem... Maybe you use an older version of Clipper? I use Summer '87.

I use Summer '87. I also use Summer '87 Clipper and have been unable to use TLINK from TurboC 2.0. What is your secret? An article in Nantucket News about various linkers also stated that you could not use TLINK from TurboC 2.0. -- |-----------------------------------------------------------------------| |Glen Midkiff osu-cis!dsacg1!gmidkiff | |From the Internet: gmidkiff@dsacg1.dla.mil | |Phone: (614)-238-9643 @DLA, Systems Automation Center, Columbus, Oh. |

I see that Turbo Pascal is in my path before Turbo C, so whenever I execute tlink, it's the one that comes with Pascal.. I'm sorry!

cs>Is anyone using the Turbo linker (tlink) with Clipper?
You CANNOT use TLINK from Turbo C 2
You CAN use TLINK from Turbo C 1.0 & 1.5
The version I use says it is TLINK version 1.1,
which came with Turbo C 1.5
If you are using overlays you must use PLINK86 which came with Clipper.
The command line can be seen from entering TLINK <enter>
Tlink object_list, exe_result, mapfile, library_list
EG:
Tlink mod1+mod2+mod3,myprog,nul,clipper+extend+mylib
------------- ------ --- ------- ------ -----
| | | | | |
| | | | | - mylib.lib
| | | | |-- Nantucket's Extend.lib
| | | |-- Nantucket's Clipper.lib
| | |-- skip the map file this time
| |-- create myprog.exe if successful link
|-- object list
Note: List elements can be seperated with a space or a plus "+"
Lists end with a comma ","
If you have a large list of object and/or libraries the response file
format is:
Tlink @responsefilename
responsefile consists of:
object list
resulting exe
mapfile
library list
To continue a list on the next line use "+"
To end a list use "," or nothing
You may specify a response file for each list
EG:
Tlink @objlist, myprog, mymap, @liblist
| | | |
| | | --- library response file
| | |---------- mapfile resulting in mymap.map
| |------------------ exe name resulting in myprog.exe
|-------------------------- object response file
I hope this helps & good luck.
