Summary

0001877: difficulty around @responsefile with msvc

Description

Full_Name: Jun Furuse
Version: 3.07
OS: msvc
Submission from: lamarck.inria.fr (128.93.1.21)

Hi,

I found a difficulty of compilation with msvc, in the case that
a responsefile is required: i.e. the case the command line goes longer
than 256 chars. At this moment, for example,
the option -cclib "/link /libpath:blahblah" is stored
wrongly inside responsefile in two lines as follows:

  "/link"
  "/libpath:blahblah"

and the /libpath option is ignored by the compiler:

  Command line warning D4002 : ignoring unknown option '/libpath:blahblah'

The option /link /libpath:blahblah must be stored in one line like:

  "/link /libpath:blahblah"

For a quick workaround, I use -cclib "/link/libpath:blahblah"
at this moment...
