Bug in wlib -p=512 option processing #1210

Closed virgban closed 9 months ago

virgban commented 9 months ago

I downloaded Open Watcom 2.0 to open-watcom-2_0-c-win-x64.zip and installed it fully over a previous OW 1.9 installation for my 64 Bit Windows 10 Pro PC (echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE% produces AMD64) Trying to learn from examples of code from Open Watcom so I downloaded some example code from https://github.com/open-watcom/open-watcom-v2I to open-watcom-v2-master.zip which contains over 33000 files of C++ code and project support files. I selected the project bld/idedemo/src/win32.wpj and compiled the 2nd target (button) with the error " wlib -b -c -n -q -p=512 button.lib @button.lb1 Error! Invalid command line near '-p=512 button.lib @button.lb1' " I removed the "-p=512" from the above command line (in bld/idedemo/src/win32/button.mk1) Then both targets compiled, linked, and ran ok. Did I discover a bug or am I doing something wrong? Is it possible that I used the wrong project for my system? The possible project selections in bld/idedemo/src/ are win32.wpj win.wpj win386.wpj I selected the first one but did not have a good reason. Can anyone provide some guidance for this newbie.

Thanks for bug report. It is probably related to new wlib command line processing code and some bugs in this new processing which were fixed. I will fix it ASAP.

jmalak commented 9 months ago

the issue should be fixed. Please download new OW build after regular re-build and re-check.

virgban commented 9 months ago

Was the fix in the OW code or the sample project code (bld/idedemo/src)?

jmalak commented 9 months ago

It was fix in librarian tool "wlib" not in sample project.

Thanks, I see from sourceforge, the latest update is 5/24/2023 per https://sourceforge.net/projects/openwatcom/

To get the latest fix, do I need to rebuild Watcom from source or is the executable available for WIN32 somewhere?

not needed, OW use Github for automatic daily release and CI-build that you need not to rebuild OW from source. You can download OW snapshot which contains full OW and replace existing files with this snapshot. see
