PRPM9012003: DLGBOX Doesn’t Accept Include Files with Comments PSS ID Number: Q65537 Article last modified on 06-25-1991 PSS database name: P_PresMan

1.21

OS/2

Summary:

PROBLEM ID: PM9012003

SYMPTOMS The dialog box editor, DLGBOX.EXE, does not accept any accompanying include files that contain comments (for example, &quot;/* … */&quot; or “//”). If an attempt is made to open such a file, DLGBOX.EXE simply states that it will not accept the input.

CAUSE The parser for DLGBOX.EXE does not screen out standard C language comments.

STATUS Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with the version of DLGBOX.EXE that is included with the Presentation Manager (PM) version 1.21 Programmer’s Toolkit (PTK). We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
