Hi,

following error occured while maintaining an old program
written with bc5.01.

TLink @.\make00000.rsp
Fatal Unable to open File '.\make00000.rsp'


I'm working under w2k with clear case.

I investigated that the turbo linker has problems with long filenames.
Unfortunatly this temporary files are created by clearmake (omake)
forced by these old cp/m style parameter transfer via temporaly files.

I can not (even not find) control clear case to use a shorter name
for these file created by the makefiles ( same as (borland)make is doing
but using <target names>.r$p).

-Is there any version of these old fashioned linker that can handle
these files?
-Does anybody know have to manage omake to use different names?
-Or does anybody know hav to abuse the linker ilink32 to link
old fashioned 16 bit applikations ( these are for a special processor 
board-cross platform dev.)?

Any hint is appreciated

.
