Linker Error VC++ 6.0 [modified] SOLVED

Hey, I'm working with VC++ 6.0 on an old project at work and if I export the makefile and do the nmake /f libbase.mak I can get the code to compile and link (with the MS V6.0 cl.exe and link.exe) . If I go into studio and hit build I get a linker error with a garbage file name that I can't search.

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "øì.obj"

Is this related to the .dsp file? Where can I hunt this thing down? How can I get a list of all the files it is trying to link? Basically, how can I find where this renegade object is being created or why is the linker looking for this object that may not exist?

Any help will be greatly appreciated,

Thanks,

Dave

It's part of the project. Open it, and the .dsw file, to see if they contain any junk.

So i've tracked it down to by reading the .plg file it's apparently putting some garbage in the .tmp file (note right after the first [ the first thing in the temp file is garbage).

I don't suppose anyone knows where to edit the creation of these temp files?

SOLVED

If you get something funny like that I was using an environment variable $(LIBNAME) to link the libs; but the paths were so long that the variable overflowed and gave me messed up names.

If anyone else has this problem, I've been there lol. It's rough.

Thanks codeproject readers for all the help Big Grin | :-D

I do not understand what you are writing!!!

you want to copy the WHOLE content of header.e01 to header.e02 ?

or

you want to copy PART of the content of header.e01 to header.e02 ?

IMO, if you can write the file, you can read it back and save it back again to another file.

I quess your are talking with respect to object persistance (Serialization), You want to store the Object (CFile) State to the file 2 (header.e02) rather than copying the entire data.

I cannot trace the functions for this, I would suggest a solution.
overload the operators for Serialization,

CArchive& AFXAPI operator<<(CArchive& ar, CFile& fileObj)
{
	// Store object state
	ar << fileObj.GetFileName();
	ar << fileObj.GetPosition();
	return ar;
}

CArchive& AFXAPI operator>>(CArchive& ar, CFile& fileObj)
{
	// Retrieve object state
	CString FileName;
	ULONGLONG pos;
	ar >> FileName;
	fileObj.Open(FileName, 0);
	ar >> pos;
	fileObj.Seek(pos, 0);
	return ar;
}

now you are able to store Cfile Object State through CArchive.
Eg:

CArchive archive(&File1, CArchive::store);
	archive << File2;

please use the logic of above, there may be compile / runtime error, that depends on your implementation

You do know this is bad practice, right?

If you intend your app to be used by standard users, they
will have to enter a password every time.

There is proper places to create app data files, both common and per-user.
