Hi Alan, the differences between these files have to do with the /force option. This forces the linker to produce an executable or DLL even in the presence of conflicting runtime libraries. I am not sure it is no longer needed - in the past it has turned out nearly impossible to get a consistent set of runtime libraries so that all the complaints disappear - especially if there are third-party libraries involved.
I will follow your advice about copying that particular file into cmake-2.8/Platform. Regards, Arjen On 2010-02-22 10:07, Alan W. Irwin wrote: > On 2010-02-22 00:52-0800 Alan W.
