========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========I am using Visual C++ 2005 express edition with MASM 8 addon.
I have no idea why I am recieving this error. Anyone know what it means? anything I am doing wrong?.
if this message is generated by linker, try "/subsystem:console" or "/subsystem:windows".
If this message is from assembler, and you just want to get object file, try "/c" switch
If this message is from assembler, and you just want to get object file, try "/c" switch
You're trying to do 16bit assembly? Use the "/omf" switch... also you won't be able to use the visual studio environment (at least not without tweaking), and you'll need to find the 16bit Microsoft linker, since the current versions won't link 16bit code.
