BUG: Zero Errors from Build but No Executable File Created |
Q97684
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual C++, versions 1.0, 1.5
SYMPTOMS
When you build an application in Microsoft Visual C++ version 1.0, it returns the following message:
0 Errors, 0 Warnings
However, an attempt to run the program fails because neither the object files nor the executable file is available.
CAUSE
The build operation failed due to an error that the Visual Workbench build engine does not process. Typically, this situation is caused by a DOSXNT error that prevents the compiler from running.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Visual Workbench version 1.0 for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
The Visual Workbench uses a tool called WINTEER to communicate with the MS-DOS window in which the build operation is occurring. If you specify the /V parameter to the Visual Workbench, WINTEER executes in a visible window which allows you to see the errors that prevent the build from occurring successfully. For more information about WINTEER and its switches, please refer to the README.WRI file in the Visual C++ HELP directory (by default, C:\MSVC\HELP), or the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
