Problem targeting OpenVMS 9.2-1 x86-64 from VMS IDE

Post by robdaemon » Sun Jul 02, 2023 2:59 pm

VMS-IDE's autogenerated MMS file references CXXLINK, which does not seem to exist on x86-64.

Is there a way to edit the default template?

Errors in VSCode:

Code: Select all

MMS/EXTENDED_SYNTAX/DESCR=hello.mms/MACRO=("DEBUG=1","OUTDIR=out","NAME=hello","UNIXNAME=hello","CONFIG=DEBUG")
%DCL-W-IVVERB, unrecognized command verb - check validity and spelling
 \CXXLINK\
%MMS-F-ABORT, For target [.OUT.DEBUG]HELLO.EXE, CLI returned abort status: %X00038090.
-CLI-W-IVVERB, unrecognized command verb - check validity and spelling

Hello RobDaemon , Try searching for CXXLINK at the "Home" "Board index" level there are several mentions of this in those messages . Hopefully something pertinent will be found .

Yes - you need to use plain LINK.

I don't know - I don't use VS Code.

But wouln't a simple:

$ CXXLINK :== LINK

in a part of LOGIN.COM that does get executed work?

We will fix that.

PS: there is no template for MMS, all lines are in code.
