PRB:IMPLIB /c Option Documented in APT Should Be /NOIGNORECASE ID Number: Q69935

Summary:
On page 362 of the “Microsoft C Advanced Programming Techniques” (APT) manual shipped with C versions 6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0ax, the /c option for IMPLIB is documented to direct IMPLIB to be case sensitive. This is incorrect because /c is NOT a valid IMPLIB option. The option that directs IMPLIB to be case sensitive is /NOIGNORECASE (/NOI). This option is documented correctly in the online help.
The following is the incorrect section from APT:
The IMPLIB command has the syntax:
IMPLIB [/c] libfile deffile [deffile …]
or
IMPLIB [/c] libfile dynlib [dynlib …]
The /c option directs IMPLIB to be case sensitive. By default, it is case insensitive.
The corrected documentation should appear as follows:
The IMPLIB command has the syntax:
IMPLIB [/NOIGNORECASE] libfile deffile [deffile …]
or
IMPLIB [/NOIGNORECASE] libfile dynlib [dynlib …]
The /NOIGNORECASE option directs IMPLIB to be case sensitive. By default, it is case insensitive.
The documentation for C/C++ version 7.0 has been corrected.
