#37 closed defect (fixed)

export for symbols longer than 255 chars

Reported by: Yuri Dario Owned by: bird

Description

emxbind cannot parse .def files with symbols longer than 255 chars. moddef.h is modified to allow symbols up to 1024 chars (got some 525 chars long). Since OS/2 cannot export symbols longer than 255 chars, the NONAME flag use is required, emxbind stops with fatal error if flag is not used.

Summary: aout export for symbols longer than 255 charsexport for symbols longer than 255 chars

This breaks several assumptions in emximp and/or in omflib. So, it'll have to wait till I've done the others or to 0.6.2.

(In [3703]) moddef.h,emxbind,weakld: Expanded the symbol name fields in libmoddef so that we can parse def-files with long symbols before truncating them (weakld). References #37.

(In [3704]) 0.6: Backported r3703: moddef.h,emxbind,weakld: Expanded the symbol name fields in libmoddef so that we can parse def-files with long symbols before truncating them (weakld). Fixes #37.
