Summary:
SYMPTOMS
If the TMP environment variable is set only to a drive (with no
path specified), the Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) version 1.0 or
1.1 may "crash" out to MS-DOS when a compile is attempted. The
screen will still show PWB editor, but there will be a prompt
displayed.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PWB versions 1.0
and 1.1. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here as it becomes available.
More Information:
To reproduce this problem, use the following procedure:
1. Set up the environment to run PWB.
2. Set the TMP environment variable to the current drive, without
specifying a path. For example:
SET TMP=C:
3. Execute PWB and create or load a simple source file.
4. Attempt to compile the source file. (Note: If the Compile option is
not available on the Make menu, make sure the file has a name with
a .C extension.)
