I've only briefly tried the binaries from the other Swift for Windows web site, and only the underlying command-line swift.exe/swiftc.exe compiler. When using the Visual Studio binaries, link.exe is a tool that comes with Viausl Studio. It is not put in your Windows system path. Launching the Visual Studio Native Tools command prompt will open a command prompt that has link.exe in its path. Try launching all your tools from that command prompt to inherit that environment. As for the "My" problem, to me, it looks like an escaping problem for spaces, e.g. "My Program Files"? Quotes or backslashes may be needed. -Eric _______________________________________________ swift-users mailing list swift-users@swift.org https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-users
