 .RTLink Errors

    This section is a summary of error messages possible when linking with
    .RTLink.  The messages are divided into categories according to
    severity and the point in the linking process where the error occurs.
    Each category is described below, followed by a list of all messages in
    each category.  For specific information on the syntax and operation of
    the linker, see The Clipper Linker--RTLINK.EXE chapter in this book.

    The listed linker error and warning messages are a subset of all the
    possible messages the linker can display and represent the most likely
    problems that will be encountered during linking.  If you receive an
    error message not listed here, call Nantucket Support with the message
    and the circumstances in which it occurred.

    .RTLink Warning Messages

    As a category, .RTLink warnings are less severe than errors.  They
    indicate potential errors when the program is executed but do not
    prevent the generation of the executable (.EXE) file.  The DOS return
    code is set to 1 by the unresolved symbol warning (wrt0022) when
    generating an .EXE file; otherwise, the return code is unaffected by
    warnings.

    The general format of an .RTLink warning message is as follows:

    warning wrtxxxx: messagetext

    .RTLink Error Messages

    .RTLink error messages identify problems such as the inability to find
    a file needed by the linker, a syntax error on the RTLINK.EXE
    command-line, or an .OBJ or .LIB file error.  The linker usually cannot
    continue until the error is corrected, and no executable file is
    generated.  When this happens, the DOS return code is set to 1.

    The general format of an .RTLink error message is as follows:

    error ertxxxx: messagetext

    .RTLink Miscellaneous Error Messages

    Miscellaneous errors are just like other .RTLink errors.  The linker
    usually cannot continue until the error is corrected, and no executable
    (.EXE) file is generated.  The DOS return code is set to 1.

    The general format of an .RTLink miscellaneous error message is as
    follows:

    error eutxxxx: messagetext
