Response Files and Command Line Options
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can mix and match command line options with a response file. For
example, assume you have a response file called DBULINK2.LNK that contains
the following two lines:
+(DBUVIEW+DBUSTRU+DBUEDIT+DBUINDX+DBUCOPY+DBUUTIL+DBUHELP)+
OVLMGR,,,CLIPPER+EXTEND
The difference between this example and DBULINK1.LNK (above) is that the
first filename (DBU) is missing and the overlay manager file is included.
To link DBU.EXE you would enter the following at the command line:
WARPLINK /R /OP:M DBU @DBULINK2.LNK
The response file picks up right where your entry leaves off by appending
the first plus sign (+) to DBU as if the response file and command line
were one. Since a program file is not specified, the file DBU.EXE file
will be created. A map file name and options are not specified, so a map
file will not be created. WarpLink will look for two libraries, CLIPPER.LIB
and EXTEND.LIB.
Notice that in this example response file, all of the .OBJ files are in
parentheses.
This means that they will be overlaid. When overlaying files, the
corresponding overlay manager file name (OVLMGR.OBJ, C5OVLMGR.OBJ, or
CNOVLMGR.OBJ) must be included in the object file list.
