Hello everyone....

I have just recently changed my version of DOS from the lacking PC-DOS
v6.3 to MS-DOS v6.2 in order to take care of doublespacing. (Note: all of
DJGPP and the Windows Swapfile that it uses are located on the
uncompressed C: drive, _not_ the compressed D: drive)

Since my conversion, I am getting strange behavior whenever I go to
compile something under RHIDE.  It seems the GCC just stops (without any
message whatso ever) before it produces an object file.  Yet when I exit
out of RHIDE and just type:

GCC Hi_test.cc

It compiles and produces A.EXE which works.....


The following are the specs on my computer and the settings in various
configuration files:



c:\djgpp\work>go32-v2
go32/v2 version 2.0 built Aug 12 1996 22:27:23
Usage: go32 coff-image [args]
Rename this to go32.exe only if you need a go32 that can run v2 binaries
as
 well as v1 binaries (old makefiles).  Put ahead of the old go32 in your
PATH
 but do not delete your old go32 - leave it in the PATH after this one.
Set GO32_V2_DEBUG=y in the environment to get verbose output.
