Not really recent. It was put in place to eliminate the "command line too long" problem on Windows. It only applies to Windows nmake and Borland make builds.<br><br>According to cvs annotate, it's been that way in that file since revision 1.3 in Aug. 2003....<br>

I can't find the file after the run so I'm assuming it gets deleted.
How can I see what's getting passed to cl.exe?<br><br>--<br>Shane
