Q: I keep getting a fixup error at Q_MEMORY.ASM when I link
my FORCE code with Borland's Turbo Link. Why?
A: FORCE code suddenly became imcompatible with Borland
products when Borland came out with TURBO C++. At that time,
they introduced TURBO LINK 3.0 (TLINK). TLINK versions 3.0 and
up do not work with FORCE at all, nor do the Borland C++ compilers
work (at least, I haven't been able to get them to work, and as
I understand it, the entire compiler and its library will have to
be rewritten if we want to stay compatible with Borland). The
incompatibility was caused when Borland decided to change the
structure of its OBJ files. Either we have to meet their
structure requirements, or hope that they create a compiler
switch which supports true Intel/Microsoft OBJ structure.
However, considering Borland's competitive stance with regards
to Microsoft....
So, TLINK version 2.0, and probably all versions of MicroSoft's
LINK will work okay. We suggest that you use the MS link if you
have it. It may be a little slower than TLINK, but we know it
works.
See the file INTER_C for further discussion on C and FORCE here in
Area 12.
