MMS case-sensitivity ODS-5

[Steven Schweda]

a.obj : a.c
b.obj : b.c

Also, you might be happier with:

LINK /EXECUTABLE = $@ $(OBJ)

if you want ".exe" instead of ".EXE" with the
newer MMS. As I said, I use all-upper-case
for the product files, so I get the same
results everywhere (so far).

I haven't had this problem because I've been
using automatically generated dependencies
for a long time, and they always include the
explicit X.OBJ : X.C dependencies.

Yes, I'd like it too now. I write a little script that automatically generates descrip.mms with dependencies automatically from source directory.

Do you use CC /MMS_DEPENDENCIES, or are you
looking for "#include" directives yourself?

Hi,
I am working as a consultant for a bank and
I have been notified that the DECSet 12.8 release are in some parts, like CMS, incompatible with previous versions. We have also seen a different handling of case in rule files for MMS. In some parts we found out that we where mixing cases between when you defined a rule and when trying to use it.

HP says there will be an ECO for the DECSet out in December.
