I have no problems generating a precompiled header and the resulting .sym and .obj files. The question I have is which "-H" flag to use in order to get DMC to read the precompiled header:

	-Hbuild\somefile.sym		(doesn't seem right)
	-H				(compiler groans)
	-HDbuild -Hsomefile.sym		(dunno if this is right)
	-HIsomefile.sym			(compiler groans)

In most of my experimentation, "-HD" is totally broken, e.g.

	-HDbuild -HFsomefile.sym

places somefile.sym and somefile.obj in the current directory.

Any clues?

Here is a sample of what I useally do:
('stdhac.h' is the headerfile to precompile)

creating: -HF.\RELEASE\stdhac.SYM -o.\RELEASE\stdhac.PCO ..\stdhac.h
using it: -H -HD.\RELEASE -HO-

to use -HI you probably need to do :-H -HI.\<PATH>\PRECHFILE.PCO

Hope this helps,

Arjan

Tried this out and just got a "Internal error: cgobj 3101". I'll have to go and reduce the code down to something reproducable... :-(
