-L/exet:nt/su:windows

the "exet:" command is not in the documentation. exetype was there. or is this just a short form for it?

under dmc documentation in dmc website. we have :
-Nt Use old template name mangling scheme (obsolete)
-NT Set code segment name
its not there also. so what does it actually stands for.


/* i was trying to compile this.

#include <windows.h>
int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
MessageBox(NULL, "Hello World!", "Note", MB_OK);
return 0;
}

*/

and i do : dmc source.c

and i got a dos console behind the message box that came out.

so i search in forum. if anyone had experienced this prob in their win32 build using dmc. and i ended up with :

Try the following compiler switch: -L/exet:nt/su:windows

Good Luck!

thanks a lot to the message writer, Mr. E ;
and of course thanks a lot more to the people who made the dmc possible.


so, where do i get the info for compiler commands ? (-L/exet:nt/su:windows)

or at least what those nt, su, exet, ':', means. &/or how they are used. forgive me if i missed the online documentation. but i couldnt find it.

The -L switches are parsed to the linker, so you have to find them on
the linker page:
