PB5.0 Internal error during ParseCommandLine

Hi,

When I build a platform with PB5 (I tried both Geode + CEPC) I get the
message "LINK : fatal error LNK1000: Internal error during
ParseCommandLine". The last line before this error is 'Linking
c:\wince500\public\directx\oak\lib\x86\retail\donuts.lib'

It is a clean install with all available QFE's installed.

Anyone has a clue how to fix this ?

thanks!
Mike

Hello Mike,
We have not seen this internally, however can you follow the below steps
to get a repro you can send to me?

Thanks,
Shane


-------------------------------------
You need to gather what is known as a LINKER REPRO. Here's how:

1. Create an empty directory somewhere on your machine.
2. Set LINK_REPRO=
3. Run the offending link command.
4. Set LINK_REPRO=
5. Copy any of the compiler-generated PDB files that are necessary into the
directory created in step 1.
6. Zip the directory created in step 1.
7. Send the zip (renamed to .zi_) to "shanet at microsoft dot com"

Pay close attention to step #4, especially if the linker said it crashed in
MSPDBxx.DLL. You will probably need to copy the repro directory to a
different machine and try to recreate the repro there using the batch file
it created. If it doesn't repro off your machine, you are probably missing
some PDB files. The linker will issue warnings for all the PDBs it is
missing, so just keep copying them over until it repros.
