DOCERR: PWB Option /DP Is Documented But Not Implemented

ID: Q63951

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Programmer's Workbench for MS-DOS, version 1.0
Microsoft Programmer's Workbench for OS/2, version 1.0

SUMMARY

The /DP switch for the Programmer's WorkBench (PWB), documented on Page 49 of the Microsoft C version 6.0 "Microsoft C Reference," is not implemented in version 1.0 of PWB. This switch is designed to ignore the most recent program list upon starting PWB.

The /DP switch is mentioned only in the "Microsoft C Reference" and not in the online help.

MORE INFORMATION

Upon invocation, the Programmer's WorkBench version 1.0 does not automatically set the program list to the last program list used. Therefore, the /DP command-line switch was not implemented because it would have no purpose.

With the PWB version 1.0, there is no way to have the last program list set automatically at startup. This functionality was added with PWB version 1.1.
