SYMPTOMS
========
RUNQQ generates the following error message when it invokes any executable that
requires the MS-DOS extended utility shipped with Microsoft language products:
DOSXMSF : fatal error DX1420: cannot load program : invalid or corrupted .EXE
file
For example, RUNQQ cannot execute the MS-DOS extended utilities such as NMAKE,
FL32, and LINK32, that are shipped with Microsoft FORTRAN PowerStation for
MS-DOS, version 1.0 and 1.0a.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in FORTRAN PowerStation for MS-DOS,
version 1.0 and 1.0a.
This is not a problem with FORTRAN PowerStation 32.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The following sample program generates DX1420 when RUNQQ executes the MS-DOS
extended utility FL32.EXE. RUNQQ does not cause any problems when it spawns
16-bit programs and utilities.
Sample Code
-----------
C No compiler options required
include 'flib.fi'
include 'flib.fd'
i = runqq('fl32',' ')
print '(A,I3)',' Return Code:', i
end
The following output is produced when the above program is executed:
