[comp.unix.xenix] SCO UNIX and Codeview

usenet@cps3xx.UUCP (Usenet file owner) (12/06/89)

From the release notes for the SCO UNIX Dev Sys.:
" CodeView operates only on OMF format code produced by versions 3.2
and later of the Microsoft C Compiler, Linker, and Macro Assembler
(masm) and compiled with the -xenix, -xout, or -x2.3 compiler options or
on COFF binaries generated by rcc(CP)."

From the cc(CP) man page:
"The file a.out is in COFF format by default"

My question is:
Does anyone know why Codeview won't work with COFF binaries from cc but
it does with COFF binaries from rcc? AND, when will Codeview work with
COFF binaries from cc?
