I am trying to write a simple C testcase for a C DLL
using Visual C++ 6.0. The link step fails with

LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input
file "c:\my.obj"

I do not have any files my.* on my disk or in my project.
If I look under the link tab of my project settings, I
can see nothing that references any such file. Has
anybody come across this and knows how to get round it?

Thanks,
Michael

Try looking at your setup under Options on the Tools
menu. I've run into some odd behavior because the
paths weren't correct there.
 
Larry,
Thanks. I added the path to my LIB file, and the build
succeeds! If only the message hadn't mentioned C:\my.obj
instead of the lib file name I specified, ........!!
