Hello, can you tell me why - OPTLINK 7.50B1 writes '7.80' as the linker version into the executables? - this version of the linker generates an (empty) .debug section even if there's no debugging information? Thanks, Matthias.

Ok, I just checked and don't see a '7.80' embedded into the exe file. Which PE record do you see it in?

It's in the optional header, just after the 'magic' 0x010b. The field 'MajorLinkerVersion' is correctly set to 0x07 but the following 'MinorLinkerVersion' shows 0x50, which should be 0x32 unless the linker version 7.50 is meant to be a hex number. But this doesn't make sense because every PE inspection program will show '7.80' and thus lead to confusion (at least for me). And what about the '.debug' section I mentioned before? By the way, the file 'sc.exe' from DMC++ v827.5 is such an executable. Thanks a lot, Matthias.

Ironically, the Digital Mars PE inspection program (dumpexe) will show it in hex.And what about the '.debug' section I mentioned before?It doesn't matter, since it is small and doesn't get loaded anyway.
