E! for Windows - Technical Note #006
***************************************
Using the Microsoft RC Compiler with EW
***************************************
If you want to compile Windows resource files directly from EW using RC.EXE,
you may get an error message complaining that RCPP.ERR has not been found.
When running, RC.EXE truncates the PATH environment string just before the
7th directory. If the directory where RC.EXE and RCPP.ERR are located is the
7th (or beyond) in your PATH, you'll get that error message.
The work-around is to move the directory containing RC.EXE and the related
files to the beginning of your PATH string.
This problem doesn't appear with other Microsoft C/C++ executables like CL.
This tip will work with any text editor.
