Summary:

PROBLEM ID: PM9012005

SYMPTOMS If a long filename is used for an include filename, the resource compiler preprocessor, RCPP.EXE, will fail.

CAUSE RCPP.EXE is not set up to recognize long filenames. The 1.x versions of RCPP.EXE were written according to the FAT file system and its “8.3” file naming conventions.

STATUS Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with the version of RCPP.EXE 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.
