I'm working on an unmanaged C++ project that has extremely long link times (2 and a half minutes), even when a single .cpp file has changed, and incremental linking is turned on.
I added /test to the linker options in the VS IDE, and it has started giving me a project build error:
"Project : error PRJ0002 : Error result 6 returned from 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\link.exe'."
I have no idea what error code 6 means, and google doesn't seem to know either.
I added /verbose to the linker options as well.* In this case, I can see that when I get this error, the linker is actually doing an incremental link (only the file I changed is considered).
My suspicion is that when /test is not specified, the IDE or the linker is seeing this error code 6, and silently relinking.
Can anyone shed any light on this?* I've probably spend DAYS waiting for the linker at this point.
Thanks!
