The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Programmer's Workbench for MS-DOS, versions 1.0, 1.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. This
problem was corrected in PWB version 2.0.
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.)
