FIX: H2INC Doesn't Recognize /BATCH Command-Line Switch

ID: Q79157

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft H2INC Utility for MS-DOS, version 1.0
Microsoft H2INC Utility for OS/2, version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

It is documented that H2INC version 1.0, which shipped with Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) versions 6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0b, recognizes but ignores C 6.0 options that aren't specified as an H2INC option. However, the /BATCH switch produces the following error:

fatal error HI1800: '/BATCH' : unrecognized option

This is most prevalent while working in the Microsoft Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) where the /BATCH switch is added by default to the compiler switches that H2INC uses when it is called.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in H2INC version 1.0. This problem was corrected in H2INC for MS-DOS version 1.1 which is included with MASM for MS-DOS version 6.1.
