Visual Fortran Run-Time Errors

This section describes Visual Fortran run-time error messages. For each error, the tables in the
following sections provide the error number, the severity code, error message text, condition symbol
name, and a detailed description of the errors.
The severity of the message determines whether program execution continues:
Severity Description
severe Must be corrected. The program’s execution is terminated when the error is
encountered, unless the program’s I/O statements use the END, EOR, or ERR branch
specifiers to transfer control, perhaps to a routine that uses the IOSTAT specifier.
error Should be corrected. The program might continue execution, but the output from this
execution may be incorrect.
warning Should be investigated. The program continues execution, but output from this
execution may be incorrect.
info For informational purposes only; the program continues.
When a severe error occurs for which no recovery method (such as ERR, END, or EOR) is specified:
l The severe error message is displayed

l A hexadecimal dump of the call stack (program counter trace) is displayed
l Program execution stops
To prevent program terminationn of a severe error, consider including an I/O error-handling specifier
(see Methods of Handling Errors).
For information about where a message is displayed (depends on the project type) and related
information, see Run-Time Message Display and Format.
The following sections describe the run-time errors in detail:
l Run-Time Errors having no numbers and errors 1 through 30

l Run-Time Errors 31 through 60

Run-Time Errors Having No Numbers and Errors 1 Through

30
This section describes in detail Visual Fortran run-time errors having no numbers and run-time error
numbers 1 through 30.
In the following table, the first column lists error numbers returned to IOSTAT variables when an I/O
error is detected.
The first line of the second column provides the message as it is displayed (following forrtl:),
including the severity level, message number, and the message text. The following lines of the second
column contain the status condition symbol (such as FOR$IOS_INCRECTYP) and an explanation of
the message.
For information about the severity levels, see the Introduction.
Number Severity Level, Number, and Message Text; Condition Symbol and Explanation
None¹ info: Fortran error message number is nnn
The DIGITAL Fortran message catalog file was not found on this system. This error has
no condition symbol.
None¹ warning: Could not open message catalog: for_msg.cat
The DIGITAL Fortran message catalog file was not found on this system. This error has
no condition symbol.
None¹ Insufficient memory to open Fortran RTL catalog: message 41
The DIGITAL Fortran message catalog file could not be opened because of insufficient
virtual memory. For more information, see error 41. This error has no condition symbol.
1¹ severe (1): Not a Fortran-specific error
FOR$IOS_NOTFORSPE. An error in the user program or in the RTL was not a

DIGITAL Fortran-specific error and was not reportable through any other DIGITAL
Fortran run-time messages.
8 severe (8): Internal consistency check failure
FOR$IOS_BUG_CHECK. Internal error. Please check that the program is correct.

Recompile if an error existed in the program. If this error persists, submit a problem
report.
9 severe (9): Permission to access file denied
FOR$IOS_PERACCFIL. Check the permissions of the specified file and whether the
network device is mapped and available. Make sure the correct file and device was being
accessed. Change the protection, specific file, or process used before rerunning
program.
10 severe (10): Cannot overwrite existing file
FOR$IOS_CAVOVEEXI. Specified file xxx already exists when OPEN statement

specified STATUS=’NEW’ (create new file) using I/O unitx. Make sure correct file
name, directory path, unit, and so forth were specified in the source program. Decide
whether to:
l Rename or remove the existing file before rerunning the program.

l Modify the source file to specify different file specification, I/O unit, or OPEN
statement STATUS.
11 info (11)¹: Unit not connected
FOR$IOS_UNINOTCON. The specified unit was not open at the time of the attempted
I/O operation. Check if correct unit number was specified. If appropriate, use an OPEN
statement to explicitly open the file (connect the file to the unit number).
17 severe (17): Syntax error in NAMELIST input
FOR$IOS_SYNERRNAM. The syntax of input to a namelist-directed READ statement

was incorrect.
18 severe (18): Too many values for NAMELIST variable
FOR$IOS_TOOMANVAL. An attempt was made to assign too many values to a

variable during a namelist READ statement.
19 severe (19): Invalid reference to variable in NAMELIST input
FOR$IOS_INVREFVAR. One of the following conditions occurred:
l The variable was not a member of the namelist group.

variable.
l An attempt was made to specify a substring of a noncharacter variable or array
name.
l A substring specifier of the character variable was out-of-bounds.
l A subscript or substring specifier of the variable was not an integer constant.
l An attempt was made to specify a substring by using an unsubscripted array
variable.
20 severe (20): REWIND error
FOR$IOS_REWERR. One of the following conditions occurred:
l The file was not a sequential file.

l The file was not opened for sequential or append access.
l The DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system detected an error condition during
execution of a REWIND statement.
21 severe (21): Duplicate file specifications
FOR$IOS_DUPFILSPE. Multiple attempts were made to specify file attributes without

an intervening close operation. A DEFINE FILE statement was followed by another
DEFINE FILE statement or an OPEN statement
22 severe (22): Input record too long
FOR$IOS_INPRECTOO. A record was read that exceeded the explicit or default

record length specified when the file was opened. To read the file, use an OPEN
statement with a RECL= value (record length) of the appropriate size.
23 severe (23): BACKSPACE error
FOR$IOS_BACERR. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system detected an error

condition during execution of a BACKSPACE statement.
24¹ severe (24): End-of-file during read
FOR$IOS_ENDDURREA. One of the following conditions occurred:
l A DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system end-of-file condition was encountered

during execution of a READ statement that did not contain an END, ERR, or
IOSTAT specification.
l An end-of-file record written by the ENDFILE statement was encountered
during execution of a READ statement that did not contain an END, ERR, or
IOSTAT specification.
l An attempt was made to read past the end of an internal file character string or
array during execution of a READ statement that did not contain an END, ERR,
or IOSTAT specification.
This error is returned by END and ERRSNS.
25 severe (25): Record number outside range
FOR$IOS_RECNUMOUT. A direct access READ, WRITE, or FIND statement

specified a record number outside the range specified when the file was opened.
26 severe (26): OPEN or DEFINE FILE required
FOR$IOS_OPEDEFREQ. A direct access READ, WRITE, or FIND statement was

attempted for a file when no prior DEFINE FILE or OPEN statement with
ACCESS=’DIRECT’ was performed for that file.
27 severe (27): Too many records in I/O statement
FOR$IOS_TOOMANREC. An attempt was made to do one of the following:
l Read or write more than one record with an ENCODE or DECODE statement.
l Write more records than existed.
28 severe (28): CLOSE error
FOR$IOS_CLOERR. An error condition was detected by the DIGITAL Fortran RTL

I/O system during execution of a CLOSE statement.
29 severe (29): File not found
FOR$IOS_FILNOTFOU. A file with the specified name could not be found during an
open operation.
30 severe (30): Open failure
FOR$IOS_OPEFAI. An error was detected by the DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system
while attempting to open a file in an OPEN, INQUIRE, or other I/O statement. This
message is issued when the error condition is not one of the more common conditions
for which specific error messages are provided. It can occur when an OPEN operation
was attempted for one of the following:
l Segmented file that was not on a disk or a raw magnetic tape

l Standard I/O file that had been closed
¹Identifies errors not returned by IOSTAT.

error is detected.
the message.
For information about severity levels, see the Introduction.
31 severe (31): Mixed file access modes
FOR$IOS_MIXFILACC. An attempt was made to use any of the following

combinations:
l Formatted and unformatted operations on the same unit

l An invalid combination of access modes on a unit, such as direct and sequential
l A DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O statement on a logical unit that was opened by a
program coded in another language
32 severe (32): Invalid logical unit number
FOR$IOS_INVLOGUNI. A logical unit number greater than 2,147,483,647 or less than

zero was used in an I/O statement.
33 severe (33): ENDFILE error
FOR$IOS_ENDFILERR. One of the following conditions occurred:
l The file was not a sequential organization file with variable-length records.
l The file was not opened for sequential or append access.
l An unformatted file did not contain segmented records.
l The DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system detected an error during execution of an
ENDFILE statement.
34 severe (34): Unit already open
FOR$IOS_UNIALROPE. A DEFINE FILE statement specified a logical unit that was

already opened.
35 severe (35): Segmented record format error
FOR$IOS_SEGRECFOR. An invalid segmented record control data word was detected

in an unformatted sequential file. The file was probably either created with
RECORDTYPE=’FIXED’ or ’VARIABLE’ in effect, or was created by a program

written in a language other than Fortran or Fortran 90.
36 severe (36): Attempt to access non-existent record
FOR$IOS_ATTACCNON. A direct-access READ or FIND statement attempted to

access beyond the end of a relative file (or a sequential file on disk with fixed-length
records) or access a record that was previously deleted from a relative file.
37 severe (37): Inconsistent record length
FOR$IOS_INCRECLEN. An attempt was made to open a direct access file without

specifying a record length.
38 severe (38): Error during write
FOR$IOS_ERRDURWRI. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system detected an error

condition during execution of a WRITE statement.
39 severe (39): Error during read
FOR$IOS_ERRDURREA. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system detected an error

condition during execution of a READ statement.
40 severe (40): Recursive I/O operation
FOR$IOS_RECIO_OPE. While processing an I/O statement for a logical unit, another

I/O operation on the same logical unit was attempted, such as a function subprogram
that performs I/O to the same logical unit that was referenced in an expression in an I/O
list or variable format expression.
41 severe (41): Insufficient virtual memory
FOR$IOS_INSVIRMEM. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL attempted to exceed its available

virtual memory while dynamically allocating space. To overcome this problem,
investigate increasing the data limit (Control Panel, System, Performance Tab, Virtual
Memory). Before you try to run this program again, wait until the new system resources
take effect.
42 severe (42): No such device
FOR$IOS_NO_SUCDEV. A pathname included an invalid or unknown device name

when an OPEN operation was attempted.
43 severe (43): File name specification error
FOR$IOS_FILNAMSPE. A pathname or file name given to an OPEN or INQUIRE

statement was not acceptable to the DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system.
44 severe (44): Inconsistent record type

FOR$IOS_INCRECTYP. The RECORDTYPE value in an OPEN statement did not

match the record type attribute of the existing file that was opened.
45 severe (45): Keyword value error in OPEN statement
FOR$IOS_KEYVALERR. An improper value was specified for an OPEN or CLOSE

statement specifier requiring a value.
46 severe (46): Inconsistent OPEN/CLOSE parameters
FOR$IOS_INCOPECLO. Specifications in an OPEN or CLOSE statement were

inconsistent. Some invalid combinations follow:
l READONLY or ACTION=’READ’ with STATUS=’NEW’ or

STATUS=’SCRATCH’
l READONLY with STATUS=’REPLACE’, ACTION=’WRITE’, or
ACTION=’READWRITE’
l ACCESS=’APPEND’ with READONLY, ACTION=’READ’, STATUS=’NEW’
or STATUS=’SCRATCH’
l DISPOSE=’SAVE’, ’PRINT’, or ’SUBMIT’ wiith STATUS=’SCRATCH’
l DISPOSE=’DELETE’ with READONLY
l CLOSE statement STATUS=’DELETE’ with OPEN statement READONLY
l ACCESS=’APPEND’ with STATUS=’REPLACE’
l ACCESS=’DIRECT’ or ’KEYED’ with POSITION=’APPEND’, ’ASIS’, or
’REWIND’
47 severe (47): Write to READONLY file
FOR$IOS_WRIREAFIL. A write operation was attempted to a file that was declared

ACTION=’READ’ or READONLY in the OPEN statement that is currently in effect.
48 severe (48): Invalid argument to Fortran Run-Time Library
FOR$IOS_INVARGFOR. The compiler passed an invalid or improperly coded

argument to the DIGITAL Fortran RTL. This can occur if the compiler is newer than
the RTL in use.
51 severe (51): Inconsistent file organization
FOR$IOS_INCFILORG. The file organization specified in an OPEN statement did not

match the organization of the existing file.
53 severe (53): No current record
FOR$IOS_NO_CURREC. Attempted to execute a REWRITE statement to rewrite a

record when the current record was undefined. To define the current record, execute a
successful READ statement. You can optionally perform an INQUIRE statement on
the logical unit after the READ statement and before the REWRITE statement. No
other operations on the logical unit may be performed between the READ and
REWRITE statements.
55 severe (55): DELETE error
FOR$IOS_DELERR. An error condition was detected by the DIGITAL Fortran RTL

I/O system during execution of a DELETE statement.
57 severe (57): FIND error
FOR$IOS_FINERR. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL I/O system detected an error

condition during execution of a FIND statement.
58¹ info (58): Format syntax error at or near xx
FOR$IOS_FMTSYN. Check the statement containing xx, a character substring from the
format string, for a format syntax error. For more information, see the FORMAT
statement.
59 severe (59): List-directed I/O syntax error
FOR$IOS_LISIO_SYN². The data in a list-directed input record had an invalid format,

or the type of the constant was incompatible with the corresponding variable. The value
of the variable was unchanged.
60 severe (60): Infinite format loop
FOR$IOS_INFFORLOO. The format associated with an I/O statement that included an

I/O list had no field descriptors to use in transferring those values.
²The ERR transfer is taken after completion of the I/O statement for error number 59. The resulting
file status and record position are the same as if no error had occurred. However, other I/O errors take
the ERR transfer as soon as the error is detected, so file status and record position are undefined.

error is detected.
the message.

61 severe or info¹ (61): Format/variable-type mismatch
FOR$IOS_FORVARMIS². An attempt was made either to read or write a real variable

with an integer field descriptor (I, L, O, Z, B), or to read or write an integer or logical
variable with a real field descriptor (D, E, or F). To suppress this error message, see the
description of /check:noformat.
62 severe (62): Syntax error in format
FOR$IOS_SYNERRFOR. A syntax error was encountered while the RTL was

processing a format stored in an array or character variable.
63 error or info¹ (63): Output conversion error
FOR$IOS_OUTCONERR². During a formatted output operation, the value of a

particular number could not be output in the specified field length without loss of
significant digits. When this situation is encountered, the overflowed field is filled with
asterisks to indicate the error in the output record. If no ERR address has been defined
for this error, the program continues after the error message is displayed. To suppress
this error message, see the description of /check:nooutput_conversion.
64 severe (64): Input conversion error
FOR$IOS_INPCONERR². During a formatted input operation, an invalid character was

detected in an input field, or the input value overflowed the range representable in the
input variable. The value of the variable was set to zero.
65 error (65): Floating invalid
FOR$IOS_FLTINV. During an arithmetic operation, the floating-point values used in a

calculation were invalid for the type of operation requested or invalid exceptional
values. For example, the error can occur if you request a log of the floating-point values
0.0 or a negative number. For certain arithmetic expressions, specifying the
/check:nopower option can suppress this message.
66 severe (66): Output statement overflows record
FOR$IOS_OUTSTAOVE. An output statement attempted to transfer more data than

would fit in the maximum record size.
67 severe (67): Input statement requires too much data
FOR$IOS_INPSTAREQ. Attempted to read more data than exists in a record with an

unformatted READ statement or with a formatted sequential READ statement from a
file opened with a PAD specifier value of 'NO'.
68 severe (68): Variable format expression value error

FOR$IOS_VFEVALERR². The value of a variable format expression was not within the
range acceptable for its intended use; for example, a field width was less than or equal to
zero. A value of 1 was assumed, except for a P edit descriptor, for which a value of zero
was assumed.
70³ severe (70): Integer overflow
FOR$IOS_INTOVF. During an arithmetic operation, an integer value exceeded byte,

word, or longword range. The result of the operation was the correct low-order part.
See the Data Representation chapter in the Programmer’s Guide for ranges of the
various integer data types. Consider specifying a larger integer data size (modify source
program or, for an INTEGER declaration, possibly use the /integer_size:size option).
71³ severe (71): Integer divide by zero
FOR$IOS_INTDIV. During an integer arithmetic operation, an attempt was made to

divide by zero. The result of the operation was set to the dividend, which is equivalent
to division by 1.
72³ error (72): Floating overflow
FOR$IOS_FLTOVF. During an arithmetic operation, a floating-point value exceeded

the largest representable value for that data type. See the Data Representation chapter in
the Programmer’s Guide for ranges of the various data types.
73³ error (73): Floating divide by zero
FOR$IOS_FLTDIV. During a floating-point arithmetic operation, an attempt was made

to divide by zero.
74³ error (74): Floating underflow
FOR$IOS_FLTUND. During an arithmetic operation, a floating-point value became less

than the smallest finite value for that data type. Depending on the values of the /fpe:n
option, the underflowed result was either set to zero or allowed to gradually underflow.
See the Data Representation chapter in the Programmer’s Guide for ranges of the
various data types.
75³ error (75): Floating point exception
FOR$IOS_SIGFPE. A floating-point exception occurred. Possible causes include:
l Division by zero
l Overflow
l An invalid operation, such as subtraction of infinite values, multiplication of zero
by infinity without signs), division of zero by zero or infinity by infinity
l Conversion of floating-point to fixed-point format when an overflow prevents
conversion
77³ severe (77): Subscript out of range
FOR$IOS_SUBRNG. An array reference was detected outside the declared array

bounds.
78³ error (78): Process killed
FOR$IOS_SIGTERM. The process received a signal requesting termination of this

process. Determine source of this software termination signal.
79³ error (79): Process quit
FOR$IOS_SIGQUIT. The process received a signal requesting termination of itself.

Determine source of this quit signal
95³ info (95): Floating-point conversion failed
FOR$IOS_FLOCONFAI. The attempted unformatted read or write of nonnative

floating-point data failed because the floating-point value:
l Exceeded the allowable maximum value for the equivalent native format and was
set equal to infinity (plus or minus)
l Was infinity (plus or minus) and was set to infinity (plus or minus)
l Was invalid and was set to not a number (NaN)
Very small numbers are set to zero (0). This error could be caused by the specified
nonnative floating-point format not matching the floating-point format found in the
specified file. Check the following:
l The correct file was specified.

l The record layout matches the format DIGITAL Fortran is expecting.
l The ranges for the data being used (see Data Representation).
l The correct nonnative floating-point data format was specified (seeConverting
Unformatted Numeric Data).
108 Severe (108): Cannot stat file
FOR$IOS_CANSTAFILE. Make sure correct file and unit were specified.
¹For errors 61 and 63, the severity depends on the /check:keywords used during compilation
command.
²The ERR transfer is taken after completion of the I/O statement for error numbers 61, 63, 64, and 68.
The resulting file status and record position are the same as if no error had occurred. However, other
I/O errors take the ERR transfer as soon as the error is detected, so file status and record position are
undefined.
³Identifies errors not returned by IOSTAT.

the message.
120 severe (120): Operation requires seek ability
FOR$IOS_OPEREQSEE. Attempted an operation on a file that requires the ability to

perform seek operations on that file. Make sure the correct unit, directory path, and file
were specified.
138¹ severe (138): Array index out of bounds
FOR$IOS_BRK_RANGE. An array subscript is outside the dimensioned boundaries of

that array. Recompile with the /check:bounds option set.
139¹ Severe: (139): Array index out of bounds for index nn
FOR$IOS_BRK_RANGE2. An array subscript is outside the dimensioned boundaries of

that array. Recompile with the /check:bounds option set.
140¹ severe (140): Floating inexact
FOR$IOS_FLTINE. A floating-point arithmetic or conversion operation gave a result

that differs from the mathematically exact result. This trap is reported if the rounded
result of an IEEE operation is not exact.
144¹ severe (144): Reserved operand
FOR$IOS_ROPRAND. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL encountered a reserved operand

while executing your program. Please report the problem to DIGITAL.
145¹ severe (145): Assertion error
FOR$IOS_ASSERTERR. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL encountered an assertion error.

Please report the problem to DIGITAL.
146¹ severe (146): Null pointer error
FOR$IOS_NULPTRERR. Attempted to use a pointer that does not contain an address.

Modify the source program, recompile, and relink.
147¹ severe (147): Stack overflow
FOR$IOS_STKOVF. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL encountered a stack overflow while

executing your program.
148¹ severe (148): String length error
FOR$IOS_STRLENERR. During a string operation, an integer value appears in a

context where the value of the integer is outside the permissible string length range.
Recompile with the /check:bounds option.
149¹ severe (149): Substring error
FOR$IOS_SUBSTRERR. An array subscript is outside the dimensioned boundaries of

an array. Recompile with the /check:bounds option.
150¹ severe (150): Range error
FOR$IOS_RANGEERR. An integer value appears in a context where the value of the

integer is outside the permissible range.
151¹ severe (151): Allocatable array is already allocated
FOR$IOS_INVREALLOC. An allocatable array must not already be allocated when

you attempt to allocate it. You must deallocate the array before it can again be
allocated.
152¹ severe (152): Unresolved contention for DEC Fortran RTL global resource
FOR$IOS_RESACQFAI. Failed to acquire a DIGITAL Fortran RTL global resource

for a reentrant routine. For a multithreaded program, the requested global resource is
held by a different thread in your program. For a program using asynchronous handlers,
the requested global resource is held by the calling part of the program (such as main
program) and your asynchronous handler attempted to acquire the same global resource.
153¹ severe (153): Allocatable array or pointer is not allocated
FOR$IOS_INVDEALLOC. A Fortran 90 allocatable array or pointer must already be

allocated when you attempt to deallocate it. You must allocate the array or pointer
before it can again be deallocated.
154¹ severe(154): Array index out of bounds
FOR$IOS_RANGE. An array subscript is outside the dimensioned boundaries of that

array. Recompile with the /check:bounds option set.
155¹ severe(155): Array index out of bounds for index nn
FOR$IOS_RANGE2. An array subscript is outside the dimensioned boundaries of that

array. Recompile with the /check:bounds option set.
156¹ severe(156): GENTRAP code = hex dec
FOR$IOS_DEF_GENTRAP. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL has detected an unknown

GENTRAP code. The cause is most likely a software problem due to memory
corruption, or software signalling an exception with an incorrect exception code. Try
recompiling with the /check:bounds option set to see if that finds the problem.
157¹ severe(157): Program Exception - access violation
FOR$IOS_ACCVIO. The program tried to read from or write to a virtual address for
which it does not have the appropriate access. Try recompiling with the/check:bounds
option set to see if the cause is an out-of-bounds memory reference.
This is an operating system error. See your operating system documentation for more
information.
158¹ severe(158): Program Exception - datatype misalignment
FOR$IOS_DTYPE_MISALIGN. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL has detected data that is

not aligned on a natural boundary for the data type specified. For example, a REAL(8)
data item aligned on natural boundaries has an address that is a multiple of 8. To ensure
naturally aligned data, use the /alignment option. For more information on alignment,
see Data Alignment Considerations in the Programmer’s Guide.

159¹ severe(159): Program Exception - breakpoint
FOR$IOS_PGM_BPT. The DIGITAL Fortran RTL has encountered a breakpoint in the

program.
information.
160¹ severe(160): Program Exception - single step
FOR$IOS_PGM_SS. A trace trap or other single-instruction mechanism has signaled

that one instruction has been executed.
information.
161¹ severe(161): Program Exception - array bounds exceeded

FOR$IOS_PGM_BOUNDS. The program tried to access an array element that is

outside the specified boundaries of the array. Recompile with the/check:bounds option
set.
162¹ severe(162): Program Exception - denormal floating-point operand
FOR$IOS_PGM_DENORM. A floating-point arithmetic or conversion operation has a

denormalized number as an operand. A denormalized number is smaller than the lowest
value in the normal range for the data type specified. See theData Representation
chapter in the Programmer’s Guide for ranges for floating-point types.
Either locate and correct the source code causing the denormalized value or, if a
denormalized value is acceptable, specify a different value for the /fpe compiler option
to allow program continuation.
163¹ severe(163): Program Exception - floating stack check
FOR$IOS_PGM_FLTSTK. During a floating-point operation, the floating-point

register stack on x86 systems overflowed or underflowed. This is a fatal exception most
likely caused by a compiler code generation error. Please report the problem to
DIGITAL.
164¹ severe(164): Program Exception - integer divide by zero
FOR$IOS_PGM_INTDIV. During an integer arithmetic operation, an attempt was

made to divide by zero. Locate and correct the source code causing the integer divide
by zero.
165¹ severe(165): Program Exception - integer overflow
FOR$IOS_PGM_INTOVF. During an arithmetic operation, an integer value exceeded

the largest representable value for that data type. See the Data Representation chapter in
the Programmer’s Guide for ranges for INTEGER types.
This message appears when /check:overflow was specified and an integer overflow

FOR$IOS_F6314. An illegal unit number was specified.
Legal unit numbers can range from 0 through 2**31-1, inclusive.
581 severe (581): Illegal RECL value
FOR$IOS_F6315. A negative or zero record length was specified for a direct file.
The smallest valid record length for direct files is 1.
582 severe (582): Array already allocated
FOR$IOS_F6316. The program attempted to ALLOCATE an already allocated array.
583 severe (583): Array size zero or negative
FOR$IOS_F6317. The size specified for an array in an ALLOCATE statement must be

greater than zero.
584 severe (584): Non-HUGE array exceeds 64K
FOR$IOS_F6318.
585 severe (585): Array not allocated
FOR$IOS_F6319. The program attempted to DEALLOCATE an array that was never

allocated.
586 severe (586): BACKSPACE illegal on terminal device

FOR$IOS_F6400. A BACKSPACE statement specified a unit connected to a terminal

device such as a terminal or printer.
587 severe (587): EOF illegal on terminal device
FOR$IOS_F6401. An EOF intrinsic function specified a unit connected to a terminal

588 severe (588): ENDFILE illegal on terminal device
FOR$IOS_F6402. An ENDFILE statement specified a unit connected to a terminal

589 severe (589): REWIND illegal on terminal device
FOR$IOS_F6403. A REWIND statement specified a unit connected to a terminal

590 severe (590): DELETE illegal for read-only file
FOR$IOS_F6404. A CLOSE statement specified STATUS=’DELETE’ for a read-only

file.
591 severe (591): External I/O illegal beyond end of file
FOR$IOS_F6405. The program tried to access a file after executing an ENDFILE

statement or after it encountered the end-of-file record during a read operation.
A BACKSPACE, REWIND, or OPEN statement must be used to reposition the file

before execution of any I/O statement that transfers data.
592 severe (592): Truncation error: file closed
FOR$IOS_F6406.
593 severe (593): Terminal buffer overflow
FOR$IOS_F6407. More than 131 characters were input to a record of a unit connected
to the terminal (keyboard). Note that the operating system may impose additional limits
on the number of characters that can be input to the terminal in a single record.
594 severe (594): Comma delimiter disabled after left repositioning
FOR$IOS_F6408. If you have record lengths that exceed the buffer size associated with
the record, (for instance, the record is a file with the buffer set by BLOCKSIZE= in the
OPEN statement), either you should not do left tabbing within the record, or you should
not use commas as field delimiters. This is because commas are disabled as input field
delimiters if left tabbing leaves the record positioned in a previous buffer.
For example, consider you have a file LONG.DAT that is one continuous record with
data fields separated by commas. You then set the buffer associated with the file to 512
bytes, read more than one buffer size of data, tab left to data in the previous buffer, and
attempt to read further data, as follows:
INTEGER value(300)
OPEN (1, FILE = ’LONG.DAT’, BLOCKSIZE = 512)
READ (1, 100) (value(i), i = 1, 300)
100 FORMAT (290I2,TL50,10I2)
In this case, error 594 occurs.
599 severe (599): File already connected to a different unit
FOR$IOS_F6413. The program tried to connect an already connected file to a new unit.
A file can be connected to only one unit at a time.
600 severe (600): Access not allowed
FOR$IOS_F6414.
This error can be caused by one of the following:
l The filename specified in an OPEN statement was a directory.

l An OPEN statement tried to open a read-only file for writing.
l The file was opened with SHARE=DENYRW’ by another process.
601 severe (601): File already exists
FOR$IOS_F6415. An OPEN statement specified STATUS=’NEW’ for a file that

already exists.
602 severe (602): File not found
FOR$IOS_F6416. An OPEN statement specified STATUS=’OLD’ for a file that does

not exist.
603 severe (603): Too many open files
FOR$IOS_F6417. The program exceeded the number of open files the operating system
allows.
604 severe (604): Too many units connected
FOR$IOS_F6418. The program exceeded the number of units that can be connected at
one time. Units are connected with the OPEN statement.
605 severe (605): Illegal structure for unformatted file
FOR$IOS_F6419. The file was opened with FORM=’UNFORMATTED’ and

ACCESS=’SEQUENTIAL’, but its internal physical structure was incorrect or
inconsistent. Possible causes: the file was created in another mode or by a non-Fortran
program.
606 severe (606): Unknown unit number
FOR$IOS_F6420. A statement such as BACKSPACE or ENDFILE specified a file

that had not yet been opened. (The READ and WRITE statements do not cause this
problem because they prompt you for a file if the file has not been opened yet.)
607 severe (607): File read-only or locked against writing
FOR$IOS_F6421. The program tried to transfer data to a file that was opened in read-
only mode or locked against writing.
The error message may indicate a CLOSE error when the fault is actually coming from
WRITE. This is because the error is not discovered until the program tries to write
buffered data when it closes the file.
608 severe (608): No space left on device
FOR$IOS_F6422. The program tried to transfer data to a file residing on a device (such
as a hard disk) that was out of storage space.
609 severe (609): Too many threads
FOR$IOS_F6423. Too many threads were active simultaneously. At most, 32 threads

can be active at one time. Close any unnecessary processes or child windows within
your application.
610 severe (610): Invalid argument
FOR$IOS_F6424.
611 severe (611): BACKSPACE illegal for SEQUENTIAL write-only files
FOR$IOS_F6425. The BACKSPACE statement is not allowed in files opened with

MODE=WRITE (write-only status) because BACKSPACE requires reading the
previous record in the file to provide positioning.
Resolve the problem by giving the file read access or by avoiding the BACKSPACE
statement. Note that the REWIND statement is valid for files opened as write-only.
612 severe (612): File not open for reading or file locked
FOR$IOS_F6500. The program tried to read from a file that was not opened for reading
or was locked.
613 severe (613): End of file encountered
FOR$IOS_F6501. The program tried to read more data than the file contains.
614 severe (614): Positive integer expected in repeat field
FOR$IOS_F6502. When the i*c form is used in list-directed input, the i must be a
positive integer. For example, consider the following statement:
READ(*,*) a, b
Input 2*56.7 is accepted, but input 2.1*56.7 returns error 614.

error is detected.
the message.
615 severe (615): Multiple repeat field
FOR$IOS_F6503. In list-directed input of the form i*c, an extra repeat field was used.
For example, consider the following:
READ(*,*) I, J, K
Input of 2*1*3 returns this error. The 2*1 means send two values, each 1; the *3 is an
error.
616 severe (616): Invalid number in input
FOR$IOS_F6504. Some of the values in a list-directed input record were not numeric.
For example, consider the following:
READ(*,*) I, J
The preceding statement would cause this error if the input were: 123 ’abc’.
617 severe (617): Invalid string in input
FOR$IOS_F6505. A string item was not enclosed in single quotation marks.
618 severe (618): Comma missing in COMPLEX input
FOR$IOS_F6506. When using list-directed input, the real and imaginary components of
a complex number were not separated by a comma.
619 severe (619): T or F expected in LOGICAL read
FOR$IOS_F6507. The wrong format was used for the input field for logical data.
The input field for logical data consists of optional blanks, followed by an optional
decimal point, followed by a T for true or F for false. The T or F may be followed by
additional characters in the field, so that .TRUE. and .FALSE. are acceptable input
forms.
620 severe (620): Too many bytes read from unformatted record
FOR$IOS_F6508. The program tried to read more data from an unformatted file than
the current record contained. If the program was reading from an unformatted direct
file, it tried to read more than the fixed record length as specified by the RECL= option.
If the program was reading from an unformatted sequential file, it tried to read more
data than was written to the record.
621 severe (621): H or apostrophe edit descriptor illegal on input
FOR$IOS_F6509. Hollerith (H) or apostrophe edit descriptors were encountered in a

format used by a READ statement.
622 severe (622): Illegal character in hexadecimal input
FOR$IOS_F6510. The input field contained a character that was not hexadecimal.
Legal hexadecimal characters are 0 - 9 and A - F.
623 severe (623): Variable name not found
FOR$IOS_F6511. A name encountered on input from a namelist record is not declared

in the corresponding NAMELIST statement.
624 severe (624): Invalid NAMELIST input format
FOR$IOS_F6512. The input record is not in the correct form for namelist input.
625 severe (625): Wrong number of array dimensions
FOR$IOS_F6513. In namelist input, an array name was qualified with a different

number of subscripts than its declaration, or a non-array name was qualified.
626 severe (626): Array subscript exceeds allocated area
FOR$IOS_F6514. A subscript was specified in namelist input which exceeded the

declared dimensions of the array.
627 severe (627): Invalid subrange in NAMELIST input
FOR$IOS_F6515. A character item in namelist input was qualified with a subrange that
did not meet the requirement that 1 <= e1 <= e2 <= len (where "len" is the length of the
character item, "e1" is the leftmost position of the substring, and "e2" is the rightmost
position of the substring).
628 severe (628): Substring range specified on non-CHARACTER item
FOR$IOS_F6516. A non-CHARACTER item in namelist input was qualified with a

substring range.
629 severe (629): Internal file overflow
FOR$IOS_F6600. The program either overflowed an internal-file record or tried to

write to a record beyond the end of an internal file.
630 severe (630): Direct record overflow
FOR$IOS_F6601. The program tried to write more than the number of bytes specified
in the RECL= option to an individual record of a direct-access file.
631 severe (631):Numeric field bigger than record size
FOR$IOS_F6602. The program tried to write a noncharacter item across a record

boundary in list-directed or namelist output. Only character constants can cross record
boundaries.
632 severe (632): Heap space limit exceeded
FOR$IOS_F6700. The program ran out of heap space. The ALLOCATE statement
and various internal functions allocate memory from the heap. This error will be
generated when the last of the heap space is used up.
633 severe (633): Scratch file name limit exceeded
FOR$IOS_F6701. The program exhausted the template used to generate unique

scratch-file names. The maximum number of scratch files that can be open at one time is
26.
634 severe (634): D field exceeds W field in ES edit descriptor
FOR$IOS_F6970. The specified decimal length D exceeds the specified total field width
W in an ES edit descriptor.
635 severe (635): D field exceeds W field in EN edit descriptor
FOR$IOS_F6971. The specified decimal lengthD exceeds the specified total field width
W in an EN edit descriptor.
636 severe (636): Exponent of 0 not allowed in format
FOR$IOS_F6972.
637 severe (637): Integer expected in format
FOR$IOS_F6980. An edit descriptor lacked a required integer value. For example,

consider the following:
WRITE(*, 100) I, J
100 FORMAT (I2, TL, I2)
The preceding code will cause this error because an integer is expected after TL.
638 severe (638): Initial left parenthesis expected in format
FOR$IOS_F6981. A format did not begin with a left parenthesis (( ).
639 severe (639): Positive integer expected in format
FOR$IOS_F6982. A zero or negative integer value was used in a format.
Negative integer values can appear only with the P edit descriptor. Integer values of 0
can appear only in the d and m fields of numeric edit descriptors.
640 severe (640): Repeat count on nonrepeatable descriptor
FOR$IOS_F6983. One or more BN, BZ, S, SS, SP, T, TL, TR, /, $, :, or apostrophe
(’) edit descriptors had repeat counts associated with them.
641 severe (641): Integer expected preceding H, X, or P edit descriptor
FOR$IOS_F6984. An integer did not precede a (nonrepeatable) H, X, or P edit

descriptor.
The correct formats for these descriptors are nH, nX, and kP, respectively, where n is a
positive integer and k is an optionally signed integer.
642 severe (642): N or Z expected after B in format

FOR$IOS_F6985. To control interpretation of embedded and trailing blanks within

numeric input fields, you must specify BN (to ignore them) or BZ (to interpret them as
zeros).
643 severe (643): Format nesting limit exceeded
FOR$IOS_F6986. More than 16 sets of parentheses were nested inside the main level of
parentheses in a format.
644 severe (644): ’.’ expected in format
FOR$IOS_F6987. No period appeared between the w and d fields of a D, E, F, or G

edit descriptor.
645 severe (645): Unexpected end of format
FOR$IOS_F6988. An incomplete format was used.
Improperly matched parentheses, an unfinished Hollerith (H) descriptor, or another

incomplete descriptor specification can cause this error.
646 severe (646): Unexpected character in format
FOR$IOS_F6989. A character that cannot be interpreted as part of a valid edit

descriptor was used in a format. For example, consider the following:
WRITE(*, 100) I, J
100 FORMAT (I2, TL4.5, I2)
The code will generate this error because TL4.5 is not a valid edit descriptor. An integer
must follow TL.
647 severe (647): M field exceeds W field in I edit descriptor
FOR$IOS_F6990. In syntax Iw.m, the value of m cannot exceed the value of w.
648 severe (648): Integer out of range in format
FOR$IOS_F6991. An integer value specified in an edit descriptor was too large to

represent as a 4-byte integer.
649 severe (649): format not set by ASSIGN
FOR$IOS_F6992. The format specifier in a READ, WRITE, or PRINT statement was

an integer variable, but an ASSIGN statement did not properly assign it the statement
label of a FORMAT statement in the same program unit.
650 severe (650): Separator expected in format

The following topics cover linker tools errors and warnings (LNKnnnn), which can be generated
LINK, LIB, DUMPBIN, and EDITBIN:
l Linker Errors LNK1000 to LNK1149

l Linker Warnings LNK4001 to LNK4039
l Corrupt Object File Explanation
Corrupt Object File Explanation:
Sometimes the linker is unable to process your object files because they are corrupt. Besides the usual
causes of corrupt files such as network problems or exposing a floppy disk to a magnetic field,
sometimes the compiler writes an incorrect object file, which you should report to technical support.
After you have ruled out a hardware, operating system, or network problem as the cause of the
corrupt object file, you should try the tips below because sometimes by changing compiler options and
recompiling, the compiler will write a non-corrupt object file. Here are some things to try when
recompiling:
l Turn off optimization with the /nooptimize (/Od, Disable) option.

l Use a different code generation option. See the /tune (/G, Optimize for Processor) options.
l Change the order of functions and global variables.
With Visual C++ mixed-language programs:
l Disable incremental compilation with the /Gi- (Enable Incremental Compilation) option.
l Disable minimal rebuild with the /Gm- (Enable Minimal Rebuild) option.
l Compile with the /Gy (Enable Function-Level Linking) option to package functions.

There was not enough memory for the tool to run. Probably the paging file exceeded available disk
space. If a shortage of disk space is not the cause, note the circumstances of the error, try to isolate
the problem and create a reproducible test case, then request technical support.

debugging information corrupt; recompile module
Probably the compilation was terminated before a valid object file was created. Recompile the given
object file. If recompiling does not correct the problem, note the circumstances of the error, try to
isolate the problem and create a reproducible test case, then consult technical support. See Corrupt
Object File for more information.

cannot open file "filename"
The tool could not open the given file. One of the following may be a cause:
l There was not enough disk space.

l The file does not exist.
l The filename or its path was incorrectly specified.
l The specified drive is invalid.
l The file does not have the appropriate permissions.
l The path for filename expands to more than 260 characters.
l If the given file is named LNKn, which is a filename generated by the linker for a temporary file,
then the directory specified in the TMP environment variable may not exist, or more than one
directory is specified for the TMP environment variable. (Only one directory path should be
specified for the TMP environment variable.)
l If the error occurs on the executable filename, an earlier version of the executable may still be
running. You will need to terminate the executable before linking it. In Windows NT or
Windows 95 you can use the utility PVIEW to look for and kill instances of the application.
l If the error message occurs for a library name, and you recently ported the .MAK file from a
previous Microsoft Visual C++ development environment, the library may no longer be valid.
Ensure that the library still exists in this circumstance.

cannot close file "filename"
The tool could not close the given file. Possibly there was insufficient disk space available.

invalid file or disk full: cannot seek to location
The tool could not read or write to location in a memory-mapped file:
l Your disk may be too full to complete the link. Free up some space and try the link again.
l The error may be a result of trying to link over a network. Some networks do not fully support
the memory-mapped files used by the linker. Try linking on your local disk to see if that fixes
the problem.
l There may be a bad block on your disk. Although the operating system and disk hardware
should have detected such an error, you may want to run a disk checking program.

invalid or corrupt file: cannot read at location
The tool could not read the file. Recreate the file.

cannot write file at location
The tool could not write to the file. One of the following may be a cause:
l There was not enough disk space to create the file.

l The drive being written to was not available, possibly due to a network problem.

cannot remove file "filename"
LIB could not delete the given file. Before LIB writes the new version of a library, it removes the
existing library file. One of the following may be a cause:
l The given file does not have the appropriate permissions.

l The drive containing the file was not available, possibly due to a network problem.

cannot rename file "filename"
LIB could not rename the given file. When LIB builds a new version of a library, it creates a
temporary file, then renames the file. One of the following may be a cause:

l The drive containing the file was not available, possibly due to a network problem.

invalid /BASE argument "argument"
The /BASE option was incorrectly specified. Either no argument was specified or argument is not a
number.

module machine type "type1" conflicts with target machine type "type2"
The object files specified as input were compiled for different machine types.

invalid machine type
The machine type specified in the object header is not valid. Probably the file is corrupt. Rebuild the
object. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

/MACHINE option required
LINK or LIB cannot determine the machine type for objects that are provided entirely from libraries.
Either specify the /MACHINE option with the appropriate machine type or specify at least one object
file in the input.

syntax error in option "option"
The given option was not correctly specified.

syntax error in keyword statement
The given module-definition statement was not correctly specified.

invalid ordinal number "argument"
The argument following the at sign (@) in an ordinal specification was not a valid number. An ordinal
number is an optional argument in either an /EXPORT option in a LINK or LIB command or an
EXPORTS statement in a module-definition file. It is an index into the exports table. The number must
be an integer in the range 1-65535.

number unresolved externals
Error LNK1120 gives you a count (number) of unresolved externals for this link. The conditions that
cause unresolved externals are described with error LNK2001 (see Linker Errors LNK2001 to
LNK2014), which precedes this error message (once for each unresolved external).

duplicate ordinal number "number"
The given ordinal number was specified more than once in either an /EXPORT option in a LINK or
LIB command or an EXPORTS statement in a module-definition file. Ordinal numbers must be unique
integers in the range 1-65535.

failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt
The object or resource could not be converted to COFF. This tool requires the format of all input files
to be COFF. If an input file is not COFF, the tool runs a conversion tool, either CVTOMF (to convert
32-bit OMF objects) or CVTRES (to convert resource files). This error is preceded by errors or
warnings from the conversion tool. One of the following may be a cause:
l The file is corrupt.

l The file is not a valid file type. An example of an invalid type is a 16-bit OMF object.

library is corrupt
The library file is corrupt. Rebuild the library.

cannot find resolution for weak extern symbol
The given weak external symbol does not have a default resolution. Probably the symbol table is
corrupt. Rebuild the object file. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

Linker miscalc (base relocations off by number)

There was not enough space in the image to write base relocations.

no library file specified
The LIB /EXTRACT command required a library as input, but a library filename was not specified.

invalid format for MS-DOS stub file "filename"
The filename specified with the /STUB option was not a valid real-mode MS-DOS executable (.EXE)
file.

invalid or corrupt file
The input file either has a corrupt header or is zero size or abnormally small. See Corrupt Object File
for more information.

invalid argument specified with /SECTION
Either the name or the attributes argument to the /SECTION option is specified incorrectly.

too many modules for program database; relink with /PDB:NONE
The project contains more than 4096 modules. One of the following is a solution:
l Relink using /PDB:NONE.

l Compile some modules without debugging information.
l Reduce the number of modules.

failure during build of exports file
LINK could not build the exports (.EXP) file. Causes of this error include system problems such as
insufficient memory and syntax errors in options or module-definition statements. This error is
preceded by another error that gives additional information.

invalid or corrupt file: no symbol for COMDAT section number
The object file is corrupt. Rebuild the file. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

error with LINK_REPRO var; cannot open "filename"
The linker could not create filename. One of the following may be a cause:
l Check that you’ve set your LINK_REPRO environment variable to an existing directory and not
the current directory.
l Make sure there are no read-only files in the directory.
l Make sure none of the files in the LINK_REPRO directory are open by another process,
because the linker needs to write to them.

/MERGE created circular link for section "section"
You attempted to merge a section into itself. Check the /MERGE options.

no argument specified with option "option"
The given option requires an argument.

invalid number specified with option "option"
The argument to the given option was specified incorrectly.

failure during conversion to COFF: cannot copy temp file filename
EDITBIN could not convert the input file to COFF. When EDITBIN converts a file, it creates a
temporary file, then copies the file. One of the following may be a cause:

l There was not enough disk space to create the file.

output filename matches input filename "filename"
The output filename specified with the /OUT or /IMPLIB option was the same as an input file.
Return to Main Linker Error Page

cannot resolve one or more undecorated symbols
This error is preceded by one warning LNK4022 for each undecorated symbol that could not be
resolved and by at least two warnings LNK4006 for the duplicate symbols found for the undecorated
symbol.

/VXD command-line option required
You attempted to build a virtual device driver without the /VXD option. Relink with the /VXD
option.

specified import library filename matches exports file filename"
"
The filename specified with LINK /IMPORT or with LIB /DEF /OUT conflicted with the filename
given by LINK or LIB to the exports file, which is formed from the base name of the main output file
and the extension .EXP.

special symbol "symbol" already defined
The given symbol is reserved for use by LINK.

.sbss section not supported
An object file contained an .sbss section.

fixup overflow; offset of target symbol "symbol" greater than +-8MB
The VXD is too large, or the sections are not arranged properly.

cannot run "filename"
The given executable file called by LINK is not in the directory that contains LINK and is not in a
directory specified in the PATH environment variable.

no output file specified
No name was specified for the main output file (executable file or DLL). LINK derives the default
name of the output file from the base name of the first object file. If no object files are specified, and if
the /OUT option is not used, this error occurs.

library with zero objects not allowed
An attempt was made to remove an object from a library that contained only that object. The object
was not removed.

invalid export specification
Either the /EXPORT option or the EXPORTS module-definition statement incorrectly specified an
export. A possible cause is a typing error.

expected aux symbol for comdat section number
The linker expected to find an auxiliary symbol table for the indicated COMDAT but could not. The
object file is probably corrupt. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

invalid selection for comdat section number
The byte in the object file indicating the type of COMDAT section is invalid. The object file is
probably corrupt. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

section section alignment (number) greater than /ALIGN value
The alignment size for the given section in the object file exceeds the value specified with the /ALIGN
option. The /ALIGN value must be a power of 2 and must equal or exceed the section alignment given
in the object file. Either recompile with a smaller section alignment or increase the /ALIGN value.

link failed because of fixup errors
The build failed due to fixup errors. The /FORCE or /FORCE:UNRESOLVED option overrides this
error.

cannot adjust code at offset=offset, va=value
LINK was unable to pad the code as required. Certain instructions are not allowed to cross page
boundaries on some processors. LINK attempts to add pads to correct this situation. In this case,
LINK could not work around the problem.

file contains relocs but header has no machine type
A converted COFF object did not have a machine type specified in its header. One cause of this error
is omitting a machine type when converting a .RES file in a separate step before linking.

cannot open filename for writing
The given file does not have write permission.

one or more multiply defined symbols found
The build failed due to multiple definitions of one or more symbols. This error is preceded by error
LNK2005. The /FORCE or /FORCE:MULTIPLE option overrides this error.

line in command file contains limit or more characters
The length of a line in a command file must be less than the given limit.

unable to load filename
The given DLL was unavailable. The possible locations for the DLL are the current directory, the
system directory, the Windows directory, and the directories specified in the PATH environment
variable.

more than one object with the name "object" found; rename object(s) or relink /PDB:NONE
A library contained two or more objects with the same name. Do one of the following:
l Rename the objects using unique names and rebuild the library.
l Link using the /PDB:NONE option.

unable to find entrypoint function in filename
The given function does not exist in the given DLL.

unable to /REBASE filename; not a valid Win32 image
The format of the given file was invalid.

failed to /REBASE filename

The rebase operation failed on the given file.

TOC size limit exceeded
The linker was unable to create a TOC (Table of Contents) in your image file. The limit is 2048 entries
in the TOC.

missing MODEND record; file is invalid or corrupt
The linker tool tried to convert an OMF object module to COFF format but could not find an
expected MODEND (module end) record in the OMF object. The OMF object module is corrupt and
needs to be recreated or recopied. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

invalid or corrupt file: duplicate comdat comdat
An object module contained two or more COMDATs with the same name. One possible cause is if
you use the Visual C++ /H option with the Visual C++ /Gy option. The /H option limits the length of
external names, and the /Gy option packages functions in COMDATs.

insufficient disk space to complete link
The linker tool was unable to complete a file operation since the operating system reported that the
disk is full. Free up space on your local and network drives (if you are writing files there).

cannot open input file "filename"
The linker tool could not find "filename" because it does not exist or the path was not found.

cannot have more than 64K exports
You have reached the linker’s limit of 65,536 exports.

invalid or corrupt file: extended relocation count number less than 65535
The COFF object file is corrupt since it contains an extended relocation count that is less than
0xFFFF. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

invalid section name "section" specified in option or directive "option"
You gave the linker an invalid section name in option. Invalid section names contain "$" or blanks.

invalid section name "section" specified
You gave the linker an invalid section name in a .DEF file. Invalid section names contain "$" or
blanks.

invalid or corrupt COFF object; reloc to undefined static symbol "symbol"
Your COFF object module is corrupt since it contains a relocation entry for an undefined static
symbol. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

Corrupt object - unmatched name relocation; ignored
Your object file contains bad relocation information. Recopy or recreate the object file. See Corrupt

BADFIXUPSECTION:: invalid fixup target "symbol"; possible zero length section
This message is issued only for VxD links when the target of a relocation does not have a section.
With LINK386 (an older version), an OMF GROUP record (generated by a MASM GROUP
directive) may have been used to combine the zero length section with another non-zero length
section. COFF format does not support the GROUP directive and zero-length sections. When LINK
automatically converts this type of OMF objects to COFF, this error may occur.

LIBTOOMANYMEMBERS:: library limit of number objects exceeded
The limit of 65535 objects or members in a library has been exceeded.

invalid fixup found, type type
The object file has become corrupted. Recompile.

cannot delay-load dll name due to import of data symbol symbol name; relink without
/DELAYLOAD:dll name
You cannot delay load a DLL if data is imported from it.

target machine "machine" requires "option"
Add the required option.

invalid or corrupt import object: unknown version
The import library has become corrupted. Rebuild the library.

invalid or corrupt import object: unknown type

invalid or corrupt import object: unknown name type

invalid or corrupt import object: non-zero reserved fields

error reading program database "filename"
The given program database (PDB) could not be read, probably because it is corrupted. If filename is
the PDB for an object file, recompile the object file; use the /debug:full and /pdbfile options. If
filename is the PDB for the main output file and this error occurred during an incremental link, delete
the PDB and relink.

error writing to program database "filename"; check for insufficient disk space
LINK could not write to the program database (PDB) for the output file. One of the following may be
a cause:
l The file is corrupted. Delete filename and relink.

l There was not enough disk space to write to the file.

"filename" missing debugging information for referencing module
The given program database (PDB) for an object file was invalid. Recompile the object file; use CL’s
/Zi option.

"filename" missing current debugging information for referencing module
The given program database (PDB) for an object file was invalid. Recompile the object file; use CL’s
/Zi option.

"filename" compiled /Yc /Yu /Z7; cannot create PDB; recompile with /Zi
Multilayered program databases (PDBs) are not supported in combination with old-style debugging
information. Recompile using CL’s /Zi option.

cannot overwrite Visual C++ 1.0 PDB "filename"; delete and rebuild
This version of LINK cannot write to an existing program database (PDB) created using older
versions of the visual development environment. Delete filename and rebuild.

incompatible PDB format in "filename"; delete and rebuild
This version of LINK cannot write to the existing program database (PDB). Delete filename and
rebuild.

program database "filename" differs from previous link; relink or rebuild
The given program database (PDB) is invalid and possibly corrupt. Relink. If filename is also the PDB
for an object file, recompile to recreate the PDB.

insufficient memory for incremental link; relink with /INCREMENTAL:NO
There was not enough virtual memory available for LINK to create the incremental status (.ILK) file.

precompiled type information not found; "filename" not linked or overwritten
The given object file, compiled with /Yc, either was not specified in the LINK command or was
overwritten.

error opening program database; file is in use
The PDB is already in use by another application.

unexpected import object encountered

a subsystem can’t be inferred and must be defined
The linker does not have enough information to infer which subsystem you will target your
application. To fix this error, use the /SUBSYSTEM option.

entry point must be defined
The symbol specified by the /ENTRY option is not defined.

corrupted object or old compiler (bad Pcode entry point)
Your object file contained a bad entry point. The object file is probably corrupt. See Corrupt Object
File for more information.

unresolved external symbol "symbol"
Code will generate this error message if it references something (like a function, variable, or label) that
the linker cannot find in all the libraries and object files it searches. In general, there are two reasons
this error occurs: what the code asks for doesn’t exist (the symbol is spelled incorrectly or uses the
wrong case, for example), or the code asks for the wrong thing (you are using mixed versions of the
libraries; some from one version of the product, others from another version).
Numerous kinds of coding and build errors can cause LNK2001. Several specific causes are listed
below, and some have more detailed explanations.
Coding Problems:
l Mismatched case in your code or module-definition (.DEF) file can cause LNK2001. For
example, if you named a variable "var1" in one C++ source file and tried to access it as "VAR1"
in another, you would receive this error. The solution is to exactly match the case of the symbol
in all references.
l A project that uses function inlining yet defines the functions in a .CPP file rather than in the
header file can cause LNK2001.
l If you are using C++, make sure to use extern "C" when calling a C function from a C++
program. By using extern "C" you force the use of the C naming convention. Be aware of
compiler switches like /Tp or /Tc that force a file to be compiled as a C (/Tc) or C++ (/Tp) file
no matter what the filename extension, or you may get different function names than you
expect.
l Attempting to reference functions or data that don’t have external linkage causes LNK2001. In
C++, inline functions and const data have internal linkage unless explicitly specified as extern.
l A missing function body or variable will cause LNK2001. Having just a function prototype or
extern declaration will allow the compiler to continue without error, but the linker will not be
able to resolve your call to an address or reference to a variable because there is no function
code or variable space reserved.
l Name decoration incorporates the parameters of a function into the final decorated function
name. Calling a function with parameter types that do not match those in the function
declaration may cause LNK2001.
l Incorrectly included prototypes will cause the compiler to expect a function body that is not
provided. If you have both a class and non-class implementation of a function F, beware of C++
scope-resolution rules.
l When using C++, make sure that you include the implementation of a specific function for a
class and not just a prototype in the class definition.
l Attempting to call a pure virtual function from the constructor or destructor of an abstract base
class will cause LNK2001 since by definition a pure virtual function has no base class
implementation.
l Only global functions and variables are public.
Functions declared with the static modifier by definition have file scope. Static variables have
the same limitation. Trying to access any static variables from outside of the file in which they
are declared can result in a compile error or LNK2001.
A variable declared within a function (a local variable) can only be used within the scope of that
function.
C++ global constants have static linkage. This is different than C. If you try to use a global
constant in C++ in multiple files you get error LNK2001. One alternative is to include the const
initializations in a header file and include that header in your .CPP files when necessary, just as if
it was a function prototype. Another alternative is to make the variable non-constant and use a
constant reference when assessing it.
Compiling and Linking Problems:
l The names of the run-time libraries needed at link time are included in the object file module by
the compiler. If you use the /NOD (/NODEFAULTLIB) option, these libraries will not be linked
into the project unless you have explicitly included them. Using /NOD will cause error
LNK2001 in this case.
l If you are using Unicode and MFC, you will get an unresolved external on _WinMain@16 if
you don’t create an entrypoint to wWinMainCRTStartup. Use the /ENTRY option or type this
value in the Project Settings dialog box. (To find this option in the development environment,
click Settings on the Project menu, then click the Link tab, and click Output in the Category
box.)
l See the following Microsoft® Knowledge Base articles located in the Online Information
System for more information. An easy way to reach an article is to copy a "Q" number above,
open the Search dialog box from the Help menu and select the Query tab, then paste the number
into the first text box and press ENTER.
Q125750 "PRB: Error LNK2001: '_WinMain@16': Unresolved External Symbol"
Q131204 "PRB: Wrong Project Selection Causes LNK2001 on _WinMain@16"
Q100639 "Unicode Support in the Microsoft Foundation Class Library"
l Linking code compiled with /MT with the library LIBC.LIB causes LNK2001 on _beginthread,
_beginthreadex, _endthread, and _endthreadex.
l When compiling with /MD, a reference to "func" in your source becomes a reference
"__imp__func" in the object since all the run-time is now held within a DLL. If you try to link
with the static libraries LIBC.LIB or LIBCMT.LIB, you will get LNK2001 on __imp__func. If
you try to link with MSVCxx.LIB when compiling without /MD you will not always get
LNK2001, but you will likely have other problems.
l Linking code compiled with an explicit or implicit /ML to the LIBCMT.LIB causes LNK2001
on _errno.
l Linking with the release mode libraries when building a debug version of an application can
cause LNK2001. Similarly, using an /Mxd option (/MLd, /MTd, or /MDd) and/or defining
_DEBUG and then linking with the release libraries will give you potential unresolved externals
(among other problems). Linking a release mode build with the debug libraries will also cause
similar problems.
l Mixing versions of Microsoft libraries and compiler products can be problematic. A new
compiler version's libraries may contain new symbols that cannot be found in the libraries
included with previous versions. Use DUMPBIN to find out if a symbol is in a 32-bit object file
or library.
l There is currently no standard for C++ naming between compiler vendors or even between
different versions of a compiler. Therefore linking object files compiled with other compilers
may not produce the same naming scheme and thus cause error LNK2001.
l Mixing inline and non-inline compile options on different modules can cause LNK2001. If a
C++ library is created with function inlining turned on (/Ob1 or /Ob2) but the corresponding
header file describing the functions has inlining turned off (no inline keyword), you will get this
error. To prevent this problem, have the inline functions defined with inline in the header file
you are going to include in other files.
l If you are using the Visual C++ #pragma inline_depth compiler directive, make sure you have a
value of 2 or greater set, and make sure you are using the /Ob1 or /Ob2 compiler option.
l Omitting the LINK option /NOENTRY when creating a resource-only DLL will cause
LNK2001.
l Using incorrect /SUBSYSTEM or /ENTRY settings can cause LNK2001. For example, if you
write a character-based application (a console application) and specify
/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS, you will get an unresolved external for WinMain. For more
information on these options and entry points, see the /SUBSYSTEM and /ENTRY linker
options.
Export Problems:
l When you are porting an application from 16 to 32 bits, LNK2001 can occur. The current 32-
bit module-definition (.DEF) file syntax requires that __cdecl, __stdcall, and __fastcall functions
be listed in the EXPORTS section without underscores (undecorated). This differs from the 16-
bit syntax, where they must be listed with underscores (decorated). For more information, see
the description of the EXPORTS section of module-definition files.
l Any export listed in the .DEF file and not found will cause LNK2001. This could be because it
does not exist, is spelled incorrectly, or uses decorated names (.DEF files do not take decorated
names). This error message is followed by fatal error LNK1120.
The following sections give more detailed information on some of the issues named in the above list.
l Missing function body or variable
Having just a function prototype will allow the compiler to continue without error, but the
linker will not be able to resolve your call to an address because there is no function code or
variable space reserved. You will not see this error until you create an actual call to the function
that the linker must resolve.
l Name decoration
Normally this refers to C++ naming conventions, but it applies to a number of non-C++ cases as
well. C++ by default will use the name of a function, its parameters and its return type when
calculating a name for a function.
Use extern "C" when calling a C function from a C++ program. Extern "C" forces use of the C
naming convention for non-class C++ functions.

gp relative fixup to symbol not in .sdata "module"
The /Gt value specified when compiling an instance of a type differed from the value specified when
compiling the reference to the type. Rebuild the object files with consistent values for /Gt. This error is
followed by fatal error LNK1165.

gp relative fixup overflow; sdata section ("section") is too large
The .sdata section was too large. Rebuild using smaller values for /Gt and /GPSIZE. This error is
followed by fatal error LNK1165.

symbol already defined in object
The given symbol, displayed in its decorated form, was multiply defined. One of the following may be
a cause:
l The most common cause of this error is accidentally linking with both the single-threaded and
multithreaded libraries. Ensure that the application project file includes only the appropriate
libraries and that any third-party libraries have appropriately created single-threaded or
multithreaded versions.
l The given symbol was a packaged function (created by compiling with /Gy) and was included in
more than one file but was changed between compilations. Recompile all files that include the
symbol.
l The given symbol was defined differently in two member objects in different libraries, and both
member objects were used.
l An absolute was defined twice, with a different value in each definition. This error is followed
by fatal error LNK1169.

TOC relative fixup to symbol not in TOC "name"; fixup ignored
LINK found an invalid fixup and ignored it.

TOC relative fixup overflow; TOC is too large; fixup ignored

Fixup target is not aligned "alignment"
LINK found a fixup target in your object file that was not aligned properly.

Fixup target must be absolute "name" w/o -FIXED; fixup ignored

Duplicate IMGLUE relocations for "name"
LINK found duplicate relocations for "name" in your object file. The object file is probably corrupt.
See Corrupt Object File for more information.

precompiled object not linked in; image may not run
If you use precompiled headers, LINK now requires that all of the object files created with
precompiled headers must be linked in. If you have a source file that you use to generate a
precompiled header for use with other source files, you now must include the object file created along
with the precompiled header.

No NOP following relocationtype relocation to "symbol"
TOCINDIRCALL and TOCCALLREL require a NOP following the instruction that has this type of
relocation. This is mainly useful for compiler and assembler developers who use the Microsoft linker.

Fixup overflow. Target "symbol" is out of range
This error occurs when the executable is too large or the error may indicate a problem with assembly
code. To work around the problem:
l Use shared libraries.

l TOC space is required for global data accessed from a module other than where it is defined.
You can eliminate the TOC space by moving such data to the module where it is referenced.
However, if data is referenced in multiple modules, then the TOC space cannot be eliminated to save
space.

TLS relative fixup overflow; .tls section ("section") is too large
The section created for thread-local storage (.tls) is too large. TLS data must fit in 32 KB. This data is
created using the __declspec(thread) storage class modifier in the declaration and definition of that
data. To work around the problem:
l Reduce the amount of thread-local data in the code.

l Use dynamic TLS by calling functions such as TlsAlloc and TlsFree.
Linker Warnings LNK4001 to LNK4039
Linker Tools Warning LNK4001

no object files specified; libraries used
The command did not specify any object files as input. The tool used objects from the libraries that
were specified as input.

symbol defined in object
The given symbol, displayed in its decorated form, was specified in its undecorated form in object, but
a unique match to a decorated symbol could not be found. This warning is always preceded by
warning LNK4022 and followed by fatal error LNK1152.

invalid library format; library ignored
The file header for the input library was invalid. The tool did not use the library.

no objects used from library library
The library was specified in the command, but no references were resolved from that library.

symbol already defined in object; second definition ignored
The given symbol, displayed in its decorated form, was multiply defined. When this warning is
encountered, symbol will be added twice, but only its first form will be used. Tips:
l The given symbol may be a packaged function, created by compiling with /Gy. This symbol was
included in more than one file but was changed between compilations. Recompile all files that
include the symbol.
l The given symbol may have been defined differently in two member objects in different libraries.
l An absolute may have been defined twice, with a different value in each definition.
l If the error message is received when combining libraries, symbol already exists in the library
being added to.

invalid version number "number"; default version assumed

Either the major or the minor number in the specified version argument was not valid. Each part of a
version specification must be an integer in the range 1-65535. Options that take a version argument
include /SUBSYSTEM and /VERSION.

unknown subsystem "argument"; default assumed
The /SUBSYSTEM option was incorrectly specified. Either no argument was specified or argument
did not have the expected syntax. The tool assumed an appropriate default.

invalid value "argument", must be keywords; option ignored
The given argument was not a valid keyword for the option it was specified with. The valid arguments
are shown in the given list of keywords.

image size imagesize exceeds specified maximum maxsize
The base address file specified with the /BASE option listed the maximum size of the program as
maxsize, but maxsize was less than the resulting image size of the program.

cannot find member object "objectname"
LIB could not find objectname in the library. The /REMOVE and /EXTRACT options require the full
name of the member object that is to be deleted or copied to a file. The full name includes the path of
the original object file. To see the full names of member objects in a library, use DUMPBIN
/ARCHIVEMEMBERS or LIB /LIST.

memorytype commit exceeds reserve; commit size set tosize
The value specified for the commit size for the memorytype exceeded the value specified for the
reserve size. The tool assumed size as the value of the commit size.

keyword statement not supported for the target platform; ignored
The given module-definition statement is not supported by this version of the linker tools. The tool
ignored the statement in the .DEF file.

too many type indexes in PDB "filename", discarding subsequent type information
There are more than 64K type indexes in the program database (PDB). The PDB might contain
unneeded type information. Delete the existing PDB and rebuild. If the warning persists, then compile
some modules without debugging information.

corrupt string table (table end); new end assumed
The object file is corrupt. The tool attempted to correct the problem. To prevent this warning, rebuild
the object file. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

cannot find unique match for symbol "symbol"
LINK or LIB found multiple matches for the given undecorated symbol and it could not resolve the
ambiguity. No output file (.EXE, .DLL, .EXP, or .LIB) is produced. This warning is followed by one
warning LNK4006 for each duplicate symbol and is finally followed by fatal error LNK1152. To
prevent this warning, specify the symbol in its decorated form. Run DUMPBIN on the object to see
decorated names.

base address address not a 64K multiple; assumed newaddress
The base address specified with the /BASE option must be a multiple of 64K. The tool assumed a
newaddress value for the base address.

CVPACK error
LINK called CVPACK to process the debugging information, but one of the following occurred:
l The call failed. Be sure that CVPACK is in a directory specified in the PATH environment
variable and that there is sufficient memory.
l CVPACK issued an error. Errors generated by CVPACK have the form CKnnnn.

option option is obsolete; ignored
The given option is not supported. LINK ignored the option and continued the build.

invalid file offset number for category;category not dumped
DUMPBIN could not display information for the given category. Probably the file is invalid or
corrupt. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

no subsystem specified; CONSOLE assumed
The /SUBSYSTEM option was not specified, and LINK was not able to determine a subsystem from
the input files.

converting object format from OMF to COFF
The format of the object file is OMF. This tool requires COFF input. To permanently convert the file,
run EDITBIN on the file with no options.

"symbol" does not exist; ignored
The symbol could not be ordered using the /ORDER option because it could not be found in the
program. Check the specification of symbol in the ordering file.
Note: LINK cannot order static functions because static function names are not public symbol names.
When /ORDER is specified, this linker warning is generated for each symbol, in the order file, that is
either static or not found.

displaying raw data in number units per line
The /RAWDATA option was specified without a formatting argument. DUMPBIN assumed a format
value of number units per line of the specified or assumed data type, as follows:
Data Type Number
none 16
BYTES 16
SHORTS 8
LONGS 4

section "name" specified with /SECTION option does not exist
DUMPBIN or EDITBIN could not find a section called name in the input file. To see the sections in a
file, run DUMPBIN with the /HEADERS option.

corrupt string table (size); string table ignored
The string table in the object file is corrupt. The program may not run as expected. Rebuild the object
file. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

no edit options specified
EDITBIN was run on the input file, but no options were used. If the file format was not COFF,
EDITBIN attempted to convert it. Otherwise, EDITBIN took no action on the file.

object specified more than once; extras ignored
The same object file was specified more than once in the LINK or LIB command. The result is the
same as if the file were specified only the first time.

invalid /ALIGN value number (must be power of 2); assumed default
The argument specified with the /ALIGN option was not a power of 2.

unrecognized option "option"; ignored
The given option is not a valid option for this tool. The tool ignored the option. To see a list of valid
options, run the tool with no arguments or options.

creating LINK_REPRO test case in dir "directory"
The LINK_REPRO environment variable, when set, specifies a directory where the linker will copy
object files, libraries, and other files. Microsoft can use these files to recreate internal linker errors.
The linker will only copy files if LINK_REPRO is set. If this is not what you want to do, remove the
LINK_REPRO environment variable by typing the following:set LINK_REPRO=

LINK_REPRO is set to current directory; ignored
The LINK_REPRO environment variable should not be set to the current directory. Create a new
directory, set LINK_REPRO to the new directory, and rerun the linker.

cannot edit library file "filename"; ignored
EDITBIN cannot process a library file.

Invalid format file; ignored
EDITBIN could not process the file because it was not a valid object file, executable file, or dynamic-
link library (DLL).

exported symbol "symbol" also imported
The symbol was both exported from and imported to the program. This warning is displayed when the
LINK warning level (set by the /WARN option) is greater than 1.

extra delimiter in /EXPORT specification
The specification of the /EXPORT option ended with a comma (,).

using .EXP file; ignoring .DEF file "filename"
The .DEF file specified in the LINK command was ignored because an .EXP file was also specified.
The .DEF file was already processed when the .EXP file was created and is not necessary in this step
of the build process.

invalid fixup found, address address; fixup ignored
The object contained an invalid fixup. The resulting executable file will probably not run correctly.
Rebuild the object file. See Corrupt Object File for more information.

extra arguments ignored for option "option"
The option was specified with too many arguments. The additional arguments were ignored.

"library1" should precede "library2" in the link command line
Check the order of your libraries. The developer of library1 determined that it should be searched by
the linker before library2. For example, library1 might contain an updated version of a function in
library2. If you specify library2 first, the linker will link in the old version rather than the newer
version from library1.

resourcefile already specified; additional resource file ignored
Only one resource file is allowed. The first .RES file specified in the command was used.

stub file missing full MS-DOS header; rebuild stub with /KNOWEAS 16-bit LINK option
The MS-DOS application specified with the /STUB option does not have a full 40-byte header. The
stub program may not run as expected. To rebuild the 16-bit stub with a full 40-byte header, use the
undocumented /KNOWEAS option with the 16-bit LINK version 5.5x or higher.

/NOSTUB ignored because no DOS stub is present
EDITBIN could not remove the stub file because it could not find one in your executable file.

"option" not compatible with "platform" target machine; option ignored
The given option is not supported for the target platform of this build. LINK ignored the option and
continued the build.

conflicting subsystem; image may not run
You tried to link in a library whose subsystem differs from your executable’s subsystem value, and
your executable file may not run. For more information on subsystems, see the /SUBSYSTEM linker
option. Note: You will not receive this warning if one subsystem is CONSOLE and the the other’s
subsystem is WINDOWS.

"function" cannot be ordered; ignored
The given function was not compiled as a packaged function. Recompile using /Gy.

DLL contains .sdata section
One or more objects was compiled using /Gt. Objects compiled with /Gt cannot be used to create a
DLL.

ambiguous entry point; selected "entry"
LINK found multiple entry points for the program. It assumed the given entry.

/MACHINE not specified; defaulting to machinetype
LINK did not find a machine specification. It assumed the given machine type. If the default is
incorrect, resulting in fatal error LNK1112, relink using the /MACHINE option.

cannot create map and/or checksum image; checksum set to 0

This warning can occur if IMAGEHLP.DLL is not available.

/OUT:filename directive in .EXP differs from output filename f"ilename"; ignoring directive
The filename specified in the NAME or LIBRARY statement when the .EXP file was created differs
from the output filename that was either assumed by default or specified with the /OUT option. A
client program that uses the resulting DLL might encounter problems.

cannot be incrementally linked on subsequent links
LINK found multiple definitions for one or more symbols, but /FORCE or /FORCE:MULTIPLE was
used to create an output file regardless of errors. LINK deleted the incremental status (.ILK) file.

section count count exceeds max (number); image may not run
The number of sections (a COFF .EXE or .DLL file is composed of sections, similar to segments) in
the output file is greater than the limit that can be handled by the loader.
You can view the names of the sections in your executable file by using the DUMPBIN program with
the default /SUMMARY option. See the DUMPBIN Reference for more information. To reduce the
number of sections in your executable file:
l Remove unneeded data_seg, code_seg or alloc_text pragmas. See data_seg, code_seg, and
alloc_text.
l Use the /MERGE option with LINK to combine sections. See /MERGE.

cannot create map for .ILK file; linking nonincrementally
There was not a large enough contiguous space in shared memory for LINK to create the incremental
status (.ILK) file. LINK performed a nonincremental build.

unable to load filename; cannot checksum
The linker tried to load the dynamic-link library filename but could not. A function in filename is used
to checksum the executable file. One of the following may be a cause:
l The linker could not find filename because it is not in the current directory or in a directory in
the PATH environment variable.
l There was a problem with filename. Recopy filename from the installation disks.

ignoring "option1" due to "option2" specification
The option2 specification overrides option1.

invalid incremental status file "filename"; linking nonincrementally
LINK cannot write to the incremental status (.ILK) file. Either filename is corrupt or it is not an
incremental linking database. Remove the file and relink.

exports file "filename" used; ignoring other export specifications
The given exports file provides the program’s exports. Exports specified by the /EXPORT option or
the EXPORTS statement in a .DEF file were ignored.

multiple "section" sections found with different attributes
LINK found two or more sections that have the same name but different attributes. Probably an
import library or exports file was created by a previous version of LINK or LIB. Recreate the file and
relink.

no write permission for incremental status file "filename"; linking nonincrementally
LINK cannot write to the incremental status (.ILK) file because filename does not have the correct
permissions.

insufficient disk space; linking nonincrementally
There is not enough space on disk for LINK to create or write to the incremental status (.ILK) file.

unable to find entrypoint function in module; cannot checksum
The function CheckSumMappedFile() does not exist in IMAGEHLP.DLL.

module "name" does not exist; ignored
The module "name" you gave in your order file does not exist. Check the spelling. For more
information on order files, see the /ORDER linker option.

total image size size exceeds max (256MB); image may not run
The application exceeds the limit of 256 megabytes.

more than number comments; skipping exestr
This warning occurs when the linker tool is converting an OMF object to a COFF object. It indicates
there are more than 256 comments in the OMF module.

entrypoint ’function’ is not __stdcall with 12 bytes of arguments; image may not run
The entry point for a DLL must be __stdcall. Either recompile the function with the /Gz option or
specify __stdcall or WINAPI when you define the function.

CONSTANT keyword is obsolete; use DATA
This warning occurs if you use CONSTANT with your exports in a module definition file or on the
command line. Use DATA instead.

image being generated due to /FORCE option; image may not run
The linker encountered an error. Normally it deletes the image it created because the image may not
run due to the error. Since you used the /FORCE option, however, the linker did not remove the
image.

all references to "dynamic-link library" discarded by /OPT:REF
The linker discarded all packaged functions that referenced exports in dynamic-link library. As a result,
dynamic-link library and its import library are unneeded.

No IFGLUE relocation in module with branch to glue code "name"
Your object file contained bad relocation information. Recopy or recreate the object file. See Corrupt

shared section "section" contains relocations; image may not run correctly
The linker emits this warning whenever you have a shared section to warn you of a potentially serious
problem. One way to share data between multiple processes is to mark a section as "shared." Marking
a section as shared can cause problems, however.

Drive/Directory component ignored in "module-definition" statement
Your module-definition (.DEF) file used a statement incorrectly. The LIBRARY or NAME statements
cannot contain directory or drive information.

filename is an MS-DOS executable; use EXEHDR to dump it
The DUMPBIN program only works with COFF-format executable files. Use EXEHDR on MS-DOS
executables. EXEHDR is included with Visual C++ 1.5.

filename is an NE format executable; use EXEHDR to dump it
The DUMPBIN program only works with COFF-format executable files. Use EXEHDR on NE
format executables. EXEHDR is included with Visual C++ 1.5.

/BASE value "number" is invalid for Windows 95; image may not run
The base address you specified is invalid. Windows 95 executable files must have a base address
greater than 0x400000. For more information on base addresses, see the /BASE linker option.

duplicate name "name" in order file; using last one

Order files specify the order you want the linker to load your functions. In your order file, a function
appears more than once, so the linker ignored all references to it except the last. For more information
on order files, see the /ORDER linker option.

defaultlib "library" conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library
You are trying to link with incompatible libraries.
Note: The run-time libraries now contain directives to prevent mixing different types. You’ll receive
this warning if you try to use different types or debug and non-debug versions of the run-time library
in the same program. For example, if you compiled one file to use one kind of run-time library and
another file to use another kind (for example, single-threaded versus multithreaded) and tried to link
them, you’ll get this warning. You should compile all source files to use the same run-time library.
You can use the linker’s /VERBOSE:LIB switch to determine which libraries the linker is searching. If
you receive LNK4098 and want to create an executable file that uses, for example, the single-
threaded, non-debug run-time libraries, use the /VERBOSE:LIB option to find out which libraries the
linker is searching. The linker should print LIBC.LIB and not LIBCMT.LIB, MSVCRT.LIB,
LIBCD.LIB, LIBCMTD.LIB, or MSVCRTD.LIB as the libraries searched. You can tell the linker to
ignore the the incorrect run-time libraries by typing the incorrect libraries in the Ignore Libraries text
box on the Link tab of the Settings dialog box in the visual development environment or by using the
/NODEFAULTLIB:library option with LINK for each library you want to ignore. See the
/NODEFAULTLIB linker option for more information.
The table below shows which Visual C++ libraries should be ignored depending on which run-time
library you want to use.
To use this run-time library Ignore these libraries
libcmt.lib, msvcrt.lib, libcd.lib, libcmtd.lib,

Single-threaded (libc.lib)
msvcrtd.lib
Multithreaded (libcmt.lib) libc.lib, msvcrt.lib, libcd.lib, libcmtd.lib, msvcrtd.lib
Multithreaded using DLL (msvcrt.lib) libc.lib, libcmt.lib, libcd.lib, libcmtd.lib, msvcrtd.lib
libc.lib, libcmt.lib, msvcrt.lib, libcmtd.lib,

Debug Single-threaded (libcd.lib)
msvcrtd.lib
Debug Multithreaded (libcmtd.lib) libc.lib, libcmt.lib, msvcrt.lib, libcd.lib, msvcrtd.lib
Debug Multithreaded using DLL

libc.lib, libcmt.lib, msvcrt.lib, libcd.lib, libcmtd.lib
(msvcrtd.lib)
For example, if you received this warning and you want to create an executable file that uses the non-
debug, single-threaded version of the run-time libraries, you could use the following options with the
linker: /NODEFAULTLIB:libcmt.lib /NODEFAULTLIB:msvcrt.lib /NODEFAULTLIB:libcd.lib
/NODEFAULTLIB:libcmtd.lib /NODEFAULTLIB:msvcrtd.lib

PDB "filename" was not found with "object/library" or at "path"; linking object as if no debug info
The linker was unable to find your .PDB file. Copy it into the directory that contains object/library.

export of deleting destructor symbol name; image may not run correctly
The program has attempted to export a deleting destructor. The resulting delete may occur across a
DLL boundary such that a process can free memory that it does not own. Make sure that the given
symbol is not listed in your .DEF file, and that the symbol is not listed as an argument of the
/IMPORT or /EXPORT option in the linker command line.

import of deleting destructor "symbol name"; image may not run correctly
The program has attempted to import a deleting destructor. The resulting delete may occur across a
DLL boundary such that a process can free memory that it does not own. Make sure that the given
symbol is not listed in your .DEF file, and that the symbol is not listed as an argument of the
/IMPORT or /EXPORT option in the linker command line.

export of symbol "symbol" should be PRIVATE
The symbol can be one of the following:
l DllRegisterServer
l DllRegisterServerEx
l DllUnregisterServer
l DllGetClassObject
l DllCanUnloadNow
This warning is emitted when you are building an import library for a DLL and export one of the
above functions without specifying it as PRIVATE in the module-definition file. In general these
functions are exported for use only by OLE. Placing them in the import library can lead to unusual
behavior when a program linked to the library incorrectly makes calls to them.

no argument specified with option option; ignoring switch
This warning occurs only when the /LIBPATH option is set. If no directory is specified with this
option, then the linker ignores this option and generates this warning message. If you do not need to
override the existing environmental library settings, remove the /LIBPATH option from the linker
command line. If you want to use an alternate search path for libraries, specify the alternate path
following the /LIBPATH option. For example: link /libpath:c:\foo\lib bar.obj would direct
the linker to search for the required libraries inc:\foo\lib before searching in the default locations.

"section name" section discarded due to "option" specification
The option caused the linker to discard the section.

"/option" not supported by this version of MSPDBxx.DLL; ignored

MSPDBxx.DLL does not support the specified option.

/ALIGN specified without /DRIVER or /VXD; image may not run
The /ALIGN option has been specified without also specifying either /DRIVER or /VXD. Bad
alignment can prevent the operating system from loading the final image. Do not use the /ALIGN
option unless building a driver or vxd.

/DELAYLOAD:dll name ignored
The linker cannot delay load the requested DLL.

unable to load dll name
The linker could not load the requested DLL.

export "exportname" specified multiple times; using first specification
An export is specified in multiple, different ways. The linker uses the first specification and ignores the
rest. Perhaps the same export is specified both on the command line (via export:) and in the .def file or
listed twice in the .def file with different attributes. If an export is specified exactly the same way
multiple times, the linker will not issue a warning.

base key "keyname" not found - using default
The keyname, specified in a /BASE option, does not appear in the base address file.

/DELAYLOAD:dllname ignored; no imports found from dllname
The linker ignores dllname because it does not need any of the functions that dllname exports.

corrupt line number information in object file; ignored
The line number information in the object file has become corrupted. Rebuild.

Section "section" with invalid attributes ignored
The linker could not determine the type of section and ignored it. Valid types for sections include text,
data, bss, and rdata.

Symbol "symbol" specified with /IMPORT not referenced in application - ignored
You specified a symbol with the /IMPORT option but it was not referenced in your program so the
linker ignored it.

Container "container" specified with /IMPORT not referenced in application - ignored
You specified an import library (container) with the /IMPORT option, but your program did not
reference the library. The linker ignored the container.

Mismatch in versions detected. Container may not load. Use /VERBOSE for details.
The linker detected a problem with versions in your import libraries (containers). To find out which
container (and its version number) is causing the problem, rerun LINK with the /VERBOSE option.

Setting "versiontype" to version
The linker set versiontype to version. Possible values for versiontype are CURRENTVER,
OLDCODEVER, and OLDAPIVER.

Ignoring "versiontype" version
The linker ignored version information ofversiontype. The possible values of versiontype are
CURRENTVER, OLDCODEVER, and OLDAPIVER.

shared library "library" does not have any exports
The shared library was ignored since it contained no exports.

insufficient disk space; performing full link
There was not enough space on disk for LINK to incrementally link the program. LINK attempted to
correct the problem and recover disk space by running a full link to recreate the incremental status
(.ILK) file.

invalid .ILK file found; performing full link
The incremental status (.ILK) file was not valid. Probably the previous incremental linking session was
interrupted. LINK attempted to correct the problem by running a full link to recreate the incremental
status (.ILK) file.

LINK options changed; performing full link
The options specified to the linker differed from the options used during the previous incremental
linking session. LINK attempted to correct the problem by running a full link to recreate the
incremental status (.ILK) file.

filename not found or not built by the last incremental link; performing full link
The given file was either deleted or changed since the last incremental linking session. LINK
attempted to correct the problem by running a full link to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

exports changed; performing full link

One or more exports were added or deleted since the last incremental linking session. LINK attempted
to correct the problem by running a full link to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

program database pdbname missing; performing full link
LINK could not find the program database (.PDB) file that it created during the last incremental
linking session. LINK attempted to correct the problem by running a full link to recreate the
incremental status (.ILK) file.

object file added; performing full link
An object file was added since the last incremental linking session. A full link was required in order to
recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

object file removed; performing full link
An object file was removed since the last incremental linking session. A full link was required in order
to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

library changed; performing full link
A library was modified since the last incremental linking session. A full link was required in order to
recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

internal limit exceeded; performing full link
An internal limit related to incremental linking was exceeded. LINK attempted to correct the problem
by running a full link to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file. One cause of this warning is an
.ILK file that exceeds 8MB. If this size is due to the accumulation of dead space, that space will be
recovered in a full link.

precompiled types found; performing full link
An object file was compiled with /Z7 and the program used a precompiled header. LINK attempted to
incrementally link by running a full link to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file. Rebuild the
object file with /Zi.

padding exhausted: performing full link
An internal limit related to incremental linking was exceeded. LINK attempted to correct the problem
by running a full link to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

symbol reference set changed; performing full link
A reference to a symbol in a library was added since the last incremental linking session. A full link
was required in order to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

bss (uninitialized data) change; performing full link

A bss symbol was changed since the last incremental linking session. A full link was required in order
to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

absolute symbol changed; performing full link
The address of an absolute symbol was changed since the last incremental linking session. A full link
was required in order to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

set of library modules referenced changed; performing full link
A full link was required in order to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

multiple definitions found for "symbol"; performing full link

directive changed; performing full link
A directive was added or deleted since the last incremental linking session. A full link was required in
order to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

ILK file not built by this linker; performing full link
The version number of the .ILK file was incorrect for this version of LINK. LINK attempted to
correct the problem by running a full link to recreate the incremental status (.ILK) file.

performing full link
A full link was required in order to create the incremental status (.ILK) file.

unable to load .ILK file; performing full link
The .incremental status (.ILK) file is unavailable because of the actions of another process.

unable to extend map for .ILK file; performing full link
The .incremental status (.ILK) file cannot be written to because of the actions of another process.

Mac Resource File "filename" changed; performing full link

unable to do comdat selection; performing full link

obsolete DBI format found; performing full link
A full link was required. The format of debugging information from Visual C++ version 4.0 or earlier.
Code that was initially linked with version 4.0 and that is now linked with a later version thus has
inconsistent debugging information. Therefore, a full link was performed to rectify the inconsistency.

NMAKE Error U1000 through U1050
The following topics cover NMAKE Error U1000 through U1049:
NMAKE Fatal Error U1000

syntax error : ’)’ missing in macro invocation
A left parenthesis, (, appeared without a matching right parenthesis, ), in a macro invocation. The
correct form is $(name); $n is allowed for one-character names.

syntax error : illegal character ’character’ in macro
The given character appeared in a macro but was not a letter, number, or underscore (_). If the colon
(:) is omitted in a macro expansion, the following error occurs: syntax error : illegal
character ’=’ in macro

syntax error : invalid macro invocation ’$’
A single dollar sign ($) appeared without a macro name associated with it. The correct form is
$(name). To specify a dollar sign, use a double dollar sign ($$) or precede the dollar sign with a caret
(^).

syntax error : ’=’ missing in macro
A macro invocation contained a colon (:), which begins a substitution, but it did not contain an equal
sign (=). The correct form is:
$(macroname:oldstring=newstring)

syntax error : macro name missing
One of the following occurred:
l The name of a macro being defined was itself a macro invocation that expanded to nothing. For
example, if the macro named ONE is undefined or has a null value, the following macro
definition causes this error:
$(ONE)=TWO
l A macro invocation did not specify a name in the parentheses. The following specification
causes this error:
$()
The syntax for using a macro is:
$(name)

syntax error : text must follow ’:’ in macro
A string substitution was specified for a macro, but the string to be changed in the macro was not
specified.

syntax error : missing closing double quotation mark
An opening double quotation mark (") appeared without a closing double quotation mark.

double quotation mark not allowed in name
The specified target name or filename contained a double quotation mark ("). Double quotation marks
can surround a filename but cannot be contained within it.

unknown directive ’!directive’
The specified directive is not one of the recognized directives.

directive and/or expression part missing
The directive was incompletely specified. The expression part of the directive is required.

too many nested !IF blocks
The limit on nesting of !IF directives was exceeded. The !IF preprocessing directives include !IF,
!IFDEF, !IFNDEF, !ELSE IF, !ELSE IFDEF, and !ELSE IFNDEF.

end-of-file found before next directive
An expected directive was missing. For example, an !IF was not followed by an !ENDIF.

syntax error : !ELSE unexpected
An !ELSE directive was found that was not preceded by an !IF directive, or the directive was placed
in a syntactically incorrect place. The !IF preprocessing directives include !IF, !IFDEF, !IFNDEF,
!ELSE IF, !ELSE IFDEF, and !ELSE IFNDEF.

missing terminating character for string/program invocation : char’
’
One of the following occurred:
l The closing double quotation mark (") in a string comparison in a directive was missing.
l The closing bracket (]) in a program invocation in a directive was missing.

syntax error in expression
An expression was invalid. Check the allowed operators and operator precedence.

illegal argument to !CMDSWITCHES
An unrecognized command switch was specified.

syntax error : !ENDIF unexpected
An !ENDIF directive was found that was not preceded by an !IF directive, or the directive was placed
in a syntactically incorrect place. The !IF preprocessing directives include !IF, !IFDEF, !IFNDEF,
!ELSE IF, !ELSE IFDEF, and !ELSE IFNDEF.

filename missing (or macro is null)
An !INCLUDE directive was found, but the name of the file to be included was missing or a macro
representing the filename expanded to nothing.

syntax error : ’string’ unexpected
The given string is not part of the valid syntax for a makefile. The following are examples of causes
and results of this error:
l If the closing set of angle brackets (<<) for an inline file are not at the beginning of a line, the
following error occurs: syntax error : ’EOF’ unexpected
l If a macro definition in the makefile contained an equal sign (=) without a preceding name or if
the name being defined is a macro that expands to nothing, the following error occurs:syntax
error : ’=’ unexpected
l If the semicolon (;) in a comment line in TOOLS.INI is not at the beginning of the line, the
following error occurs: syntax error : ’;’ unexpected
l If the makefile has been formatted by a word processor, the following error can occur:syntax
error : ’:’ unexpected

syntax error : separator missing
The colon (:) that separates targets and dependents is missing.

syntax error : expected ’:’ or ’=’ separator
Either a colon (:) or an equal sign (=) was expected. Possible causes include the following:
l A target was not followed by a colon.

l A single-letter target was followed by a colon and no space (such as a:). NMAKE interpreted it
as a drive specification.
l An inference rule was not followed by a colon.
l A macro definition was not followed by an equal sign.
l A character followed a backslash (\) that was used to continue a command to a new line.
l A string appeared that did not follow any NMAKE syntax rule.
l The makefile was formatted by a word processor.

syntax error : too many names to left of ’=’

Only one string is allowed to the left of a macro definition.

syntax error : target name missing
A colon (:) was found before a target name was found. At least one target is required.

internal error : lexer
Note the circumstances of the error, try to isolate the problem, create a reproducible test case, and
report to technical support.

internal error : parser

internal error : macro expansion

internal error : target building

internal error : expression stack overflow

internal error : temp file limit exceeded

spawn failed : message
A program or command called by NMAKE failed for the given reason.

argument before ’)’ expands to nothing
The parentheses following the preprocessing operator DEFINED or EXIST either were empty or
contained an argument that evaluated to a null string.

cannot write to file ’filename’
NMAKE could not write to the given file. One cause of this error is a read-only file specified with /X.

macro or inline file too long (maximum : 64K)
An inline file or a macro exceeded the limit of 64K.
Return to Main NMAKE Messages Page
NMAKE Error U1050 through U1100
The following topics cover NMAKE Error U1050 through U1100:

message
The message specified with the !ERROR directive was displayed.

out of memory
NMAKE ran out of memory, including virtual memory, because the makefile was too large or
complex. One of the following may be a solution:
l Free some space on disk.

l Increase the size of the Windows NT paging file or the Windows swap file.
l If only part of the makefile is being used, either divide the makefile into separate files or use !IF
preprocessing directives to limit the amount that NMAKE must process. The !IF directives
include !IF, !IFDEF, !IFNDEF, !ELSE IF, !ELSE IFDEF, and !ELSE IFNDEF.

file ’filename’ not found
NMAKE could not find the given file, which was specified with one of the following:
l /F option
l !INCLUDE preprocessing directive
l At sign (@) specifier for a response file
Check that the file exists and the filename is spelled correctly.

file ’filename’ unreadable
The file cannot be read. One of the following may be a cause:
l The file is in use by another process.

l A bad area exists on disk.
l A bad file-allocation table exists.

cannot create inline file f’ilename’
NMAKE failed to create the given inline file. One of the following may be a cause:
l A file by that name exists with a read-only attribute.

l The disk is full.

out of environment space
The operating system ran out of room for environment variables. Either increase the environment
space or set fewer environment variables.

cannot find command processor
The command processor was not in the path specified in the COMSPEC or PATH environment
variables. NMAKE uses COMMAND.COM or CMD.EXE as a command processor when executing
commands. It looks for the command processor first in the path set in COMSPEC. If COMSPEC does
not exist, NMAKE searches the directories specified in PATH.

cannot delete temporary file ’filename’
NMAKE failed to delete the temporary inline file.

terminated by user
NMAKE was halted by Ctrl+C or Ctrl+BREAK.

syntax error : ’}’ missing in dependent
A search path for a dependent was incorrectly specified. Either a space existed in the path or the
closing brace (}) was omitted. The syntax for a directory specification for a dependent is {directories}
dependent where directories specifies one or more paths, each separated by a semicolon (;). No spaces
are allowed. If part or all of a search path is replaced by a macro, make sure no spaces exist in the
macro expansion.

unable to close file : ’filename’
NMAKE encountered an error while closing a file. One of the following may be a cause:
l The file is a read-only file.

l There is a locking or sharing violation.
l The disk is full.

/F option requires a filename
The /F command-line option must be followed by either a makefile name or a dash (-), which
represents standard input.

missing filename with /X option
The /X command-line option requires the name of the file to which diagnostic error output should be
redirected. To use standard output, specify a dash (-) as the output filename.

missing macro name before ’=’
A macro definition on the NMAKE command line contained an equal sign (=) without a preceding
name. This error can occur if the macro name being defined is itself a macro that expands to nothing.

MAKEFILE not found and no target specified
The NMAKE command line did not specify a makefile or a target, and the current directory did not
contain a file named MAKEFILE. NMAKE requires either a makefile or a command-line target (or
both). To make a makefile available to NMAKE, either specify the /F option or place a file named
MAKEFILE in the current directory. NMAKE can create a command-line target by using an inference
rule if a makefile is not provided.

invalid option ’option’
The specified option is not a valid option for NMAKE.

no match found for wildcard ’filename’
There is no file that matches the given filename, which was specified using one or more wildcards (*
and ?). A target file that is specified using a wildcard must exist on disk.

cycle in macro definition macroname’
’
The given macro definition contained a macro whose definition contained the given macro. Circular
macro definitions are invalid. For example, the following macro definitions:
ONE=$(TWO)
TWO=$(ONE)
causes the following error:

cycle in macro definition ’TWO’

cycle in dependency tree for target ’targetname’
A circular dependency exists in the dependency tree for the given target. The given target is a
dependent of one of the dependents of the given target. Circular dependencies are invalid.

cycle in include files : filename’
’
The given file includes a file that eventually includes the given file. Inclusions (using the !INCLUDE
preprocessing directive) cannot be circular.

don’t know how to make ’targetname’
The specified target does not exist, and there is no command to execute or inference rule to apply.
One of the following may be a solution:
l Check the spelling of the target name.

l If targetname is a pseudotarget, specify it as a target in another description block.
l If targetname is a macro invocation, be sure it does not expand to a null string.

name too long
A string exceeded one of the following limits:
l A macro name cannot exceed 1024 characters.

l A target name (including its path) cannot exceed 256 characters.
l A command cannot exceed 2048 characters.

’program’ : return code ’value’
The given command or program called by NMAKE failed and returned the given exit code. To
suppress this error and continue the NMAKE session, use the /I option, the .IGNORE dot directive,
or the dash (-) command modifier. To continue the NMAKE session for unrelated parts of the
dependency tree, use the /K option.

constant overflow at ’expression’
The given expression contained a constant that exceeded the range - 2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647.
The constant appeared in one of the following situations:
l An expression specified with a preprocessing directive

l An error level specified with the dash (-) command modifier

illegal expression : divide by zero
An expression tried to divide by zero.

operator and/or operand usage illegal
The expression incorrectly used an operator or operand. Check the allowed set of operators and their
order of precedence.

’filename’ : program not found
NMAKE could not find the given program in order to run it. Make sure that the program is in a
directory specified in the PATH environment variable and is not misspelled.

’command’ : cannot execute command; out of memory
There is not enough memory to execute the given command. One solution is to use the /N option to
generate a batch file, then run the batch file instead of using NMAKE. In most cases the results will be
the same.

target macro ’target’ expands to nothing

The given target is an invocation of a macro that has not been defined or has a null value. NMAKE
cannot process a null target.

cannot create temporary file ’filename’
NMAKE was unable to create the temporary file it needs when it processes the makefile. One of the
following may be a cause:
l The file already exists with a read-only attribute.

l There is insufficient disk space to create the file.
l The directory specified in the TMP environment variable does not exist.

cannot mix implicit and explicit rules
A target and a pair of inference-rule extensions were specified on the same line. Targets cannot be
named in inference rules.

inference rule cannot have dependents
The colon (:) in an inference rule must be followed by one of the following:
l Newline character
l Semicolon (;), which can be followed by a command
l Number sign (#), which can be followed by a comment

cannot have : and :: dependents for same target
A target cannot be specified in both a single-colon (:) and a double-colon (::) dependency. To specify
a target in multiple description blocks, use :: in each dependency line.

invalid separator ’::’ on inference rule
An inference rule must be followed by a single colon (:).

cannot have build commands for directive targetname’
’
Dot directives cannot be followed by commands. The dot directives are .IGNORE, .PRECIOUS,
.SILENT, and .SUFFIXES.

cannot have dependents for directive ’targetname’
Dot directives cannot be followed by dependents. The dot directives are .IGNORE, .PRECIOUS,
.SILENT, and .SUFFIXES.

too many names in rule
An inference rule cannot specify more than two extensions.

cannot mix dot directives
Multiple dot directives cannot be specified on one line. The dot directives are .IGNORE,
.PRECIOUS, .SILENT, and .SUFFIXES.

syntax error : only (NO)KEEP allowed here
Something other than KEEP or NOKEEP appeared after the closing set of angle brackets (<<)
specifying an inline file. Only KEEP, NOKEEP, or a newline character may follow the angle brackets.
No spaces, tabs, or other characters may appear. KEEP preserves the inline file on disk. NOKEEP
deletes the file after the NMAKE session. The default is NOKEEP.

expanded command line c’ ommandline’ too long
After macro expansion, the given command line exceeded the limit on length of command lines for the
operating system. If the command is for a program that can accept command-line input from a file,
change the command and supply input from either a file on disk or an inline file. For example, LINK
and LIB accept input from a response file.

cannot open inline file f’ilename’
NMAKE could not create the given inline file. One of the following occurred:
l The disk was full.

l A file with that name exists as a read-only file.

filename-parts syntax requires dependent
The current dependency does not have either an explicit dependent or an implicit dependent. Filename-
parts syntax, which uses the percent (%) specifier, represents components of the first dependent of the
current target.

illegal filename-parts syntax instring’
’
The given string does not contain valid filename-parts syntax.

stack overflow
The makefile being processed was too complex for the current stack allocation in NMAKE. NMAKE
has an allocation of 0x3000 (12K). To increase NMAKE’s stack allocation, run the EDITBIN utility
with a larger stack option: EDITBIN /STACK:stacksize NMAKE.EXE where stacksize is a number
greater than the current stack allocation in NMAKE.

macro 'macroname' is illegal in the context of batch rule r' ule'
NMAKE generates this error when the command block of a batch-mode rule directly or indirectly
references a special file macro that is not $<. $< is the only allowed macro for batch-mode rules.
NMAKE Error U2001 through Warning U4011
The following topics cover NMAKE Error U2001 through Warning U4011:
NMAKE Error U2001

no more file handles (too many files open)
NMAKE could not find a free file handle. One of the following may be a solution:
l Reduce recursion in the build procedures.

l In Windows 95 or Windows 98, increase the number of file handles by changing the FILES
setting in CONFIG.SYS to allow a larger number of open files. FILES=50 is the recommended
setting.
NMAKE Warning U4001

command file can be invoked only from command line
A command file, which is invoked by the at-sign (@) specifier, cannot contain a specification for
another command file. Such nesting is not allowed. The specification was ignored.
NMAKE Warning U4002

resetting value of special macro m
’ acroname’
The given predefined macro was redefined.
NMAKE Warning U4004

too many rules for target ’targetname’
More than one description block was specified for the given target using single colons (:) as
separators. NMAKE executed the commands in the first description block and ignored later blocks.
To specify the same target in multiple dependencies, use double colons (::) as the separator in each
dependency line.
NMAKE Warning U4005

ignoring rule ’rule’ (extension not in .SUFFIXES)
The given rule contained a suffix that is not specified in the .SUFFIXES list. NMAKE ignored the
rule. This warning appears only when the /P option is used.
NMAKE Warning U4006

special macro undefined : m
’ acroname’
The given special macro name is undefined and expands to nothing.
NMAKE Warning U4007

filename ’filename’ too long; truncating to 8.3
The base name of the given file has more than eight characters, or the extension has more than three
characters. NMAKE truncated the name to an eight-character base and a three-character extension. If
long filenames are supported by your file system, enclose the name in double quotation marks (").
NMAKE Warning U4008

removed target ’target’
NMAKE was interrupted while trying to build the given target, and the target file was incomplete.
Because the target was not specified in the .PRECIOUS list, NMAKE deleted the file.
NMAKE Warning U4010

’target’ : build failed; /K specified, continuing ...
A command in the commands block for the giventarget returned a nonzero exit code. The /K option
told NMAKE to continue processing unrelated parts of the build and to issue an exit code 1 when the
NMAKE session is finished. If the given target is itself a dependent for another target, NMAKE issues
warning U4011 after this warning.
NMAKE Warning U4011

’target’ : not all dependents available; target not built
A dependent of the given target either did not exist or was out-of-date, and a command for updating
the dependent returned a nonzero exit code. The /K option told NMAKE to continue processing
unrelated parts of the build and to issue an exit code 1 when the NMAKE session is finished. This
warning is preceded by warning U4010 for each dependent that failed to be created or updated.

The following topics cover Resource Compiler Errors RC1000 through Warning RC1208:
Resource Compiler Fatal Error RC1000

UNKNOWN FATAL ERROR
Note the circumstances of the error, try to isolate the problem, and create a reproducible test case,
then report this information to technical support.

out of heap space
The Resource Compiler ran out of storage for items that it stores in its heap. One of the following may
be a solution:
l Increase the Windows swap file space. Consider using the Control Panel, System icon,
Performance tab to increase your system’s virtual memory, reboot, and retry.
l Split the current file into two or more files and compile them separately.

error count exceeds number; stopping compilation
The number of errors was too great to continue compilation. Fix some errors and recompile.

unexpected end of file found
This error can be caused by omitting the linefeed and carriage return characters on the last line of a
text file.

file not found: filename
The file specified in the RC command line was not found. Check to see whether the file has been
moved to another directory and whether the filename or path is typed correctly. Files are searched for
using the INCLUDE environment variable or the Directories setting.

unrecognized option ’option’ in f’ilename’
The specified option is not valid.

no input file specified
One or more source files must be specified on the Resource Compiler command line.

compiler limit : macros too deeply nested m
’ acro’
The Resource Compiler limit for macro nesting was exceeded. Revise the specified source file to
decrease the nesting depth of its macros.

no output file specified
The Resource Compiler command line did not specify a filename for the compiled resource file.

compiler limit : i’dentifier’ : macro definition too big
The macro definition was longer than allowed. Try to split the definition into shorter definitions.

unmatched parenthesis : missing c’haracter’
The parentheses in a preprocessor directive were not matched. The missing character is either a left or
right parenthesis.

mismatched parentheses
Make sure that every open parenthesis has a matching closing parenthesis.

too many include files : depth = l’evel’
The nesting depth of #include directives was too great. Open files can be included by the use of nested
directives. The source file containing the directive is counted as one of the files.

cannot open include file f’ilename’
The given include file either did not exist, could not be opened, or was not found. Make sure that the
environment settings are valid and that the correct path for the file is specified. Ensure that sufficient
file handles are available to the Resource Compiler. If the file is on a network drive, make sure that
you have permissions to open the file.

#if[n]def expected an identifier
The #ifdef or #ifndef conditional compilation directive was not supplied with an identifier to evaluate.
An identifier must be specified with the #ifdef and #ifndef directives.

invalid integer constant expression
The expression in an #if directive either did not exist or did not evaluate to a constant.

unexpected ’#elif’
The #elif directive did not appear within an #if, #ifdef, or #ifndef construct. Make sure that there is an
#if, #ifdef, or #ifndef statement in effect before this statement.

unexpected ’#else’
The #else directive did not appear within an #if, #ifdef, or #ifndef construct. Make sure that there is an
#if, #ifdef, or #ifndef statement in effect before this statement.

unexpected ’#endif’
An #endif directive appeared without a matching #if, #ifdef, or #ifndef directive. Make sure that there
is a matching #endif for each #if, #ifdef, and #ifndef statement.

invalid preprocessor command s’ tring’
The characters following the number sign (#) did not form a valid preprocessor directive. The number
sign cannot be used as the first character in an identifier.

expected ’#endif’
An #if, #ifdef, or #ifndef directive was not terminated with an #endif directive. Make sure that there is
an #if, #ifdef, or #ifndef statement in effect before this statement.

cannot open source file ’filename’
The specified file either did not exist, could not be opened, or was not found. Make sure that the
environment settings are valid and that the correct path for the file is specified. If this error appears
without an error message, the Resource Compiler has run out of file handles.

"too many option options, ’string’"
The given option was specified too many times. The given string is the argument to the option that
caused the error.

unknown option ’character’ in o’ ption’
The given character was not a valid letter for the option.

invalid numerical argument string’
’
The Resource Compiler expected a numerical argument but received the given string. This error may
be caused by giving a hexadecimal number without the necessary \x prefix or by a misformed floating-
point number.

compiler limit : #if or #ifdef blocks nested too deeply
The program exceeded the maximum allowable nesting levels for #if and #ifdef directives. This error
can be caused by include files that use these preprocessor directives.

compiler limit : identifier overflowed internal buffer
An internal compiler limit was exceeded.

no resource binary filename specified
The Rename Output (/fo) option was specified, but was not followed by filename. The following
syntax must be used with the /fo option: RC /fooutfilename infilename.rc

internal error : too many arguments to RCPP
Too many arguments were passed to the Resource Compiler preprocessor. Reduce the number of
symbols defined with the Define Symbols (/d) option by defining them in your source. This error can
also be caused by specifying too many include file search paths using the Include Search Path option
(/i).

invalid switch, option
The specified option is not a valid Resource Compiler option.

invalid switch, option: too many /d switches
Too many symbols were defined using the Define Symbols (/d) option. Define some symbols in your
source and recompile.

invalid switch: option
The specified option is not a valid Resource Compiler option. The following options are valid:
/r Emit .RES file
/v Verbose (print progress messages)
/d Define a symbol
/fo Rename .RES file
/l Default language ID in hex
/I Add a path for INCLUDE searches
/x Ignore INCLUDE environment variable
/c Define a code page used by NLS Conversion

invalid usage; use RC /? for Help
An invalid Resource Compiler option was specified. Valid options are one of the following: /r, /v, /d,
/fo, /l, /i, /x, or /c:

error creating resource-name
Could not create specified .RES file. Make sure it is not being created on a read-only drive. Use the /V
option to find out whether the file is being created.

could not open filename
RC could not open the specified resource script file. Make sure that the file exists.

RC terminating after preprocessor errors
The Resource Compiler halted due to other errors. Fix the other errors and recompile.

out of memory, needed number bytes
The Resource Compiler ran out of storage for items that it stores in its heap. Usually this is the result
of having too many symbols. One of the following may be a solution:
l Increase the Windows swap file space. Consider using the Control Panel, System icon,
Performance tab to increase your system’s virtual memory, reboot, and retry.
l Eliminate unnecessary include files, especially unneeded #defines and function prototypes.
l Split the current file into two or more files and compile them separately.

I/O error reading file
The Resource Compiler was not able to read a file. Check that the drive containing the file is available
and that the file is valid.

I/O error writing file
The Resource Compiler could not write to a file. This error may be caused by insufficient disk space.
You must have free space equivalent to about twice the size of the executable file you are creating.
Other possible reasons for this error are:
l Writing to a read-only volume

l Writing to a bad sector
l A sharing violation

I/O error seeking in file
The compiler was unable to complete an I/O operation.

invalid switch - missing include path after /i
The Specify Include Path (/i) option was specified, but was not followed by a path.

invalid switch - missing default language ID after /l
The Specify Default Language (/l) option was specified, but was not followed by a hexadecimal
language ID.

invalid hexadecimal default language ID specified.
The Specify Default Language (/l) option was specified, but was followed by an invalid hexadecimal
language ID. See the Platform SDK for a list of valid language IDs.

Invalid switch - missing code page after /c
The Specify Code Page (/c) option was specified, but it was not followed by a code page.

invalid code page
The Specify Code Page (/c) option was specified, but was followed by an invalid code page. See Code
Pages in the the online documentation for more information.

specified code page at cmd line does not exist in registry
The Specify Code Page (/c) option was specified, but was followed by a code page whose location is
not specified in the registry.

default code page is invalid
The code page specified by the RCCODEPAGE environment variable is not valid. See Code Pages in
the online documentation for more information.

input file has .RES extension
The .RES extension is used for Resource Compiler output. The .RC extension should be used for
Resource Compiler scripts.
Return to Main Resource Compiler Messages Page
Resource Compiler Error RC2001

newline in constant
A string constant was continued on a second line without either a backslash (\) or closing and opening
double quotation marks ("). To break a string constant that is on two lines in the source file, do one of
the following:
l End the first line with the line-continuation character, a backslash.

l Close the string on the first line with a double quotation mark and open the string on the next
line with another quotation mark.
It is not sufficient to end the first line with \n, the escape sequence for embedding a newline character
in a string constant.

expected ’defined id’
An identifier was expected after the specified preprocessing keyword.

expected ’defined(id)’
An identifier was expected after the left parenthesis following the specified preprocessing keyword.

#line expected a line number, found t’oken’
A #line directive lacked the required line-number specification.

#include expected a filename, found token’
’
An #include directive lacked the required filename specification.

#define syntax
An identifier was expected following #define in a preprocessing directive.

’character’ : unexpected in macro definition
The given character was found immediately following the name of the macro.

reuse of macro formal ’identifier’
The given identifier was used more than once in the formal parameter list of a macro definition.

’character’ : unexpected in formal list
The given character was used incorrectly in the formal parameter list of a macro definition.

missing name following ’<’
An #include directive lacked the required filename specification.

missing ’>’
The closing angle bracket (>) was missing from an #include directive.

preprocessor command must start as first non-whitespace
Non-white-space characters appeared before the number sign (#) of a preprocessor directive on the
same line.

too many chars in constant
A character constant contained more than two characters. Character constants are limited to one
character (standard character constants) or two characters (long character constants). Note that an
escape sequence (for example, \t for tab) is converted to a single character.

no closing single quote
A newline character was found before the closing single quotation mark of a character constant.

illegal escape sequence
An escape sequence appeared where one was not expected. An escape sequence - a backslash ( \ )
followed by a number or letter - may occur only in a character or string constant.

unknown character ’hexnumber’
The ASCII character corresponding to the given hexadecimal number appeared in the source file but is
an illegal character. One possible cause of this error is corruption of the source file.

expected preprocessor directive, found ’character’
The given character followed a number sign (#), but it was not the first letter of a preprocessor
directive.

illegal digit number for base radix
The specified digit is not a valid digit for the base specified by radix. Either the digit or the radix could
be incorrect. Octal digits must be numbers from 0 to 7, and hexadecimal digits must be numbers from
0 to 9 or letters from A through E.

expected exponent value, not ’character’
The given character was used as the exponent of a floating-point constant but was not a valid number.

’number’ : too big for character
The octal number following a backslash (\) in a character or string constant was too large to be
represented as a character.

Invalid directive in preprocessed RC file
The RC file contains a #pragma directive. Use the #ifndef preprocessor directive with the
RC_INVOKED constant that the Resource Compiler defines when it processes an include file. Place
the #pragma directive inside a block of code that is not processed when the RC_INVOKED constant
is defined. Code in the block is processed only by the C/C++ compiler and not by the Resource
Compiler. The following sample code demonstrates this technique:
#ifndef RC_INVOKED
#pragma pack(2) // C/C++ only, ignored by Resource Compiler
#endif
The #pragma preprocessor directive has no meaning in an .RC file. The #include preprocessor
directive is used frequently in an .RC file to include a header file (either a project-based custom header
file or a standard header file provided by Microsoft with one of its products). Some of these include
files contain the #pragma directive. Because a header file can include one or more other header files,
the file that contains the offending #pragma directive may not be immediately obvious. The #ifndef
RC_INVOKED technique can control including header files in project-based header files.

string literal too long
An RCDATA string exceeded the maximum allowable length.

unexpected end of file in string literal
An end of file was found before the end of a string. The string is probably missing a closing double
quotation mark (").

undefined keyword or key name: key
The specified keyword or key name was not defined. If you encounter the following error message:
undefined keyword or key name: MFT_STRING
Open the file ...\mfc\include\AfxRes.h and add the following include directive:
#include <winresrc.h>

BEGIN expected in string table
The BEGIN keyword must immediately follow the ACCELERATORS keyword.

expected numeric command value
RC was expecting a numeric idvalue field in the ACCELERATORS statement. Make sure that you
have used a #define constant to specify the value and that the constant is spelled correctly.

unbalanced parentheses
An open parenthesis was not matched with a closing parenthesis.

expected numerical dialog constant
A DIALOG statement requires integer values for the x, y, width, and height fields. Make sure these
values are included after the DIALOG keyword and that they are not negative.

expected numerical dialog constant
A DIALOG statement requires integer values for the x, y, width, and height fields. Make sure these
values are included after the DIALOG keyword and that they are not negative.

invalid control type
Each CONTROL statement in a DIALOG statement must be one of the following: 3STATE, AUTO3,
AUTOCHECK, AUTORADIO, BEDIT, CHECKBOX, COMBOBOX, CONTROL, CTEXT,

DEFPUSHBUTTON, EDITTEXT, GROUPBOX, HEDIT, ICON, IEDIT, LISTBOX, LTEXT,

END expected in dialog
The END keyword must occur at the end of a DIALOG statement. Make sure there are no open
quotes left from the preceding statement.

expected control class name
The class field of a CONTROL statement in the DIALOG statement must be one of the following
types: BUTTON, COMBOBOX, EDIT, LISTBOX, SCROLLBAR, STATIC, or user-defined. Make
sure the class is spelled correctly.

text string or ordinal expected in control
The text field of a CONTROL statement in the DIALOG statement must be either a text string or an
ordinal reference to the type of control is expected. If using an ordinal, make sure that you have a
#define statement for the control.

string enclosed in double quotation marks.

expecting quoted string in dialog class
The class field of the CLASS option in the DIALOG statement must be an integer or a string,
enclosed in double quotation marks.

BEGIN expected in menu
The BEGIN keyword must immediately follow the MENU keyword.

unknown menu subtype
The item-definition field of the MENU statement can contain only MENUITEM and POPUP
statements.

END expected in menu
The END keyword must come at the end of a MENU statement. Make sure you do not have any open
quotation marks or a mismatched pair of BEGIN and END statements.

empty menus not allowed
An END keyword appears before any menu items are defined in the MENU statement. Empty menus
are not permitted by the Resource Compiler. Make sure you do not have any open quotation marks
within the MENU statement.

expected ID value for menuitem
The MENU statement must contain a menuID field, which specifies the name or number that identifies
the menu resource.

expected menu string
Each MENUITEM and POPUP statement must contain a text field, which is a string enclosed in
double quotation marks that specifies the name of the menu item or pop-up menu. A MENUITEM
SEPARATOR statement requires no quoted string.

version WORDs separated by commas expected
Version numbers in a version resource should be of type WORD, and separated by commas.

DWORD expected
A valid version number was not found. It must be a DWORD type.

BEGIN expected in VERSIONINFO resource

#line expected a string containing the file name, found token’

’
A #line directive was missing a required filename.

expecting quoted string for key
The field for this statement must be a character string enclosed in double quotation marks.

expected VALUE, BLOCK, or, END keyword
A block in a VERSION resource doesn’t end properly, or a new block doesn’t begin properly. This
results in a VERSION statement that is not a valid block.

unexpected value in value data
The raw-data values in the RCDATA statement must be integers or strings, each separated by a
comma. Make sure you did not leave out a comma or leave out a quotation mark around a string.

BEGIN expected in RCDATA
The BEGIN keyword must immediately follow the RCDATA keyword.

file not found: filename
moved to another directory and whether the filename or path is typed correctly. Files are searched for
using the INCLUDE environment variable or the visual development environment INCLUDE
directory setting (Tools menu, Options item, Directories tab).

missing ’=’ in EXSTYLE=<flags>
An equal sign (=) was missing from an EXSTYLE (Extended Style Flags) statement. When the
EXSTYLE is embedded in the DIALOG or MENU statement it must have the following form:
EXSTYLE=FLAGS

empty character constant
A pair of single quotes was found with no character specified between them.

unmatched close comment ’/*’
An open comment sequence (/*) was not matched with a close comment sequence (*/) This error can
be caused by nesting comments.

VERSION not a number
A VERSION resource must be a number.

CHARACTERISTICS not a number
A CHARACTERISTICS resource must be a number.

invalid type
A different type was expected.

ellipsis requires three periods
An incorrect number of periods (.) was used in an ellipsis.

font names must be ordinals
The pointsize field in the FONT statement must be an integer, not a string.

PRIMARY LANGUAGE ID not a number
The PRIMARY LANGUAGE ID must be a hexadecimal language ID. See Language and Country
Strings in the online documentation for a list of valid Language IDs.

PRIMARY LANGUAGE ID too large
The PRIMARY LANGUAGE ID must be a valid hexadecimal language ID. See Language and
Country Strings in the Ronline documentation for a list of valid Language IDs.

missing COMMA in LANGUAGE statement
The comma separating the primary language and secondary language is missing. The LANGUAGE
statement must use the following syntax: LANGUAGE primary_language_ID,secondary_language_ID

SUBLANGUAGE ID not a number
The SUBLANGUAGE ID value must be a number. The LANGUAGE statement must use the
following syntax: LANGUAGE primary_language_ID,secondary_language_ID Valid
SUBLANGUAGE IDs are defined as SUBLANG_ constants in the WINNT.H file.

SUBLANGUAGE ID too large
The SUBLANGUAGE ID value was out of range. The LANGUAGE statement must use the
following syntax: LANGUAGE primary_language_ID,secondary_language_ID Valid
SUBLANGUAGE IDs are defined as SUBLANG_ constants in the WINNT.H file.

expected numeric constant in string table
A numeric constant, defined in a #define statement, must immediately follow the BEGIN keyword in a
STRINGTABLE statement.

expected string in STRINGTABLE
A string is expected after each stringid value in a STRINGTABLE statement.

cannot re-use string constants
You are using the same value twice in a STRINGTABLE statement. Make sure you are not mixing
overlapping decimal and hexadecimal values. Each ID in a STRINGTABLE must be unique. For
maximum efficiency use contiguous constants that start on a multiple of 16.

invalid control character
A control character in the ACCELERATORS statement is invalid. A valid control character consists
of one letter (only) following a caret (^).

hex constants must have at least 1 hex digit
An empty hexadecimal constant was found.

control character out of range [^A - ^Z]
A control character in the ACCELERATORS statement is invalid. The character following the caret
(^) must be between A and Z, inclusive.

invalid accelerator
An event field in the ACCELERATORS statement was not recognized or was more than two
characters in length.

expected string or constant accelerator command
RC was not able to determine what kind of key is being set up for the accelerator. The event field in
the ACCELERATORS statement might be invalid.

expected comma in accelerator table
The Resource Compiler requires a comma between the event and idvalue fields in the
ACCELERATORS statement.

invalid accelerator type [ASCII or VIRTKEY]
The type field in the ACCELERATORS statement must contain either the ASCII or VIRTKEY value.

## cannot occur at the beginning of a macro definition
A macro definition began with a token-pasting operator (##).

## cannot occur at the end of a macro definition
A macro definition ended with a token-pasting operator (##).

expected macro formal parameter

The token following a stringizing operator (#) was not a formal parameter name.

accelerator type required [ASCII or VIRTKEY]
The type field in the ACCELERATORS statement must contain either the ASCII or VIRTKEY value.

unexpected value in RCDATA
comma. Make sure you did not leave out a comma or leave out a quotation mark around a string.

string not found in DLGINCLUDE statement
The statement did not specify a valid include file. The DLGINCLUDE statement must use the
following syntax: DLGINCLUDE "filename.h"

numeric value expected at line
The resource on the specified line must be a numeric value.

unrecognized VERSIONINFO field; BEGIN or comma expected
An unrecognized field was found in the FIXED part of a VERSIONINFO structure declaration. A
VERSIONINFO field must be DWORDS separated by a comma.

resource too large
The size limitation of a resource was exceeded. This limit does not apply to cursors, icons, bitmaps, or
other file-based resources.

resource file filename is not in 2.03 format
The specified resource used a format earlier than version 2.03. The resource file must be converted or
re-created using the format for version 3.00 or later.

bitmap file filename is not in 3.00 format
Bitmaps using the Windows version 2.x format cannot be used in version 3.x resource files. The
bitmap must be redrawn or converted to 3.x format.

unknown DIB header format
The bitmap header is not a BITMAPCOREHEADER or BITMAPINFOHEADER structure.

bitmap file filename is not in 2.03 format
A bitmap used a format earlier than version 2.03. The bitmap must be converted or redrawn using the
format for version 3.00 or later.

resource file filename is not in 3.00 format
The specified resource used a format earlier than version 3.00. The resource file must be converted or
recreated using the format for version 3.00 or later.

old DIB in filename.
An old format Device Independent Bitmap was found in the specified file. It should be converted to
the current format.

constant too big
A constant value was too large to be represented in the type to which it was assigned.

unable to open temporary file
The Resource Compiler was unable to open a temporary file. The probable cause is either that you do
not have write permissions for the directory, or that the directory does not exist. The Resource
Compiler attempts to use these files in the directory specified by the TMP (or
GetSystemTempDirectory) environment variable or the current directory if none is specified.

duplicate font ID fontID
The specified font ID was already defined.

#error : error
This error is used to display other error messages.

too many arguments supplied
An expression contained more formal parameters than expected.

required parameter missing
An expression contained fewer formal parameters than expected.
Resource Compiler Warnings RC4000 through RC4413
The following topics cover Resource Compiler Warnings RC4000 through RC4413:
Resource Compiler Warning RC4000

UNKNOWN WARNING
Note the circumstances of the warning, try to isolate the problem and create a reproducible test case,
then consult the technical-support help file or the technical-support section in one of your manuals.

too many actual parameters for macro ’identifier’
The number of actual parameters specified with the given identifier was greater than the number of
formal parameters given in the macro definition of the identifier. The additional actual parameters
were collected but ignored during expansion of the macro.

not enough actual parameters for macro ’identifier’
The number of actual parameters specified with the given identifier was less than the number of formal
parameters given in the macro definition of the identifier. When a formal parameter is referenced in the
definition and the corresponding actual parameter has not been provided, empty text is substituted in
the macro expansion.

missing close parenthesis after ’defined’
An opening parenthesis was not matched with a closing parenthesis.

’identifier’ : macro redefinition
The given identifier was defined twice. The compiler used the second macro definition. This warning
can be caused by defining a macro on the command line and in the code with a #define directive. It
also can be caused by macros imported from include files. To eliminate the warning, either remove one
of the definitions or use an #undef directive before the second definition.

#undef expected an identifier
The name of the identifier whose definition was to be removed was not given with the #undef
directive. The #undef directive was ignored.

string too big, trailing chars truncated
A string was too large to fit in a buffer. Trailing characters were truncated and the remaining string
was used.

identifier truncated to ’identifier’
An identifier was too long and was truncated to the name shown in the warning.

float constant in a cross compilation
A float constant may not have the same value on different target platforms.

unexpected characters following ’token’ directive - newline expected
A newline character should follow the specified token.

unexpected token ’token’
Check the syntax of the line containing the specified token.

unescaped newline in character constant in inactive code
The constant expression of an #if, #elif, #ifdef, or #ifndef preprocessor directive evaluated to zero,
making the code that follows inactive. Within that inactive code, a newline character appeared within a
set of single or double quotation marks. All text until the next double quotation mark was considered
to be within a character constant.

unexpected token ’string’
Check the syntax of the line containing the specified token.

macro name ’macro’ is reserved, macro ignored
The specified macro was given a reserved name.

SHIFT or CONTROL used without VIRTKEY
In an accelerator table resource, SHIFT or CONTROL require VIRTKEY. Because SHIFT and
CONTROL are indicated as flag bits in a VIRTKEY type accelerator, they cannot exist independent
from a VIRTKEY.

ASCII character not equivalent to virtual key code
A string literal was used for the virtual key code in a VIRTKEY type accelerator. This warning lets
you continue, but be aware that the accelerator keys generated may not match the string you
indicated. (VIRTKEYs use different key codes than ASCII accelerators.) While string literals are
syntactically valid, you can only ensure that you get the accelerator you want by using the VK_*
#define values in WINDOWS.H.

string literal longer than 256 - stored anyway
A literal sting exceeded 256 characters. It was stored intact.

name string too long - truncated at 256
A name string exceeded the limit of 256 characters. It was truncated to 256 characters.

type string too long - truncated at 256
A type string exceeded the limit of 256 characters. It was truncated to 256 characters.

title string too long - truncated at 256
A title string exceeded the limit of 256 characters. It was truncated to 256 characters.

cannot determine file type for f’ilename’ : assuming 8-bit ASCII
The type of specified file is not known to the Resource Compiler. It was compiled as an 8-bit ASCII
file.
Resource Compiler Errors RW1004 through RW4004

The following topics cover Resource Compiler Errors RW1004 through RW4004:
Resource Compiler Fatal Error RW1004

Unexpected end of file
This error can be caused by omitting the linefeed and carriage-return characters on the last line of a
text file.

Error creating resource-name
Could not create specified .RES file. Make sure it is not being created on a read-only drive. Use the /V
option to find out whether the file is being created.

RC terminating after preprocessor errors
The Resource Compiler halted due to other errors. Fix the other errors and recompile.

I/O error reading file
The Resource Compiler was not able to read a file. Check that the drive containing the file is available
and that the file is valid.

I/O error writing file
The Resource Compiler could not write to a file. This error may be caused by insufficient disk space.
You must have free space equivalent to about twice the size of the executable file you are creating.
Other possible reasons for this error are:
l Writing to a read-only volume

l Writing to a bad sector
l A sharing violation

I/O error writing file, drive full
The Resource Compiler could not write a file to a drive because the drive was full. You must have
free space equivalent to about twice the size of the executable file you are creating.

Out of far heap memory
There wasn’t enough memory. Consider using the Control Panel, System icon, Performance tab to
increase your system’s virtual memory, reboot, and retry.

Output Error
The output error can be caused by any of following conditions:
l Errors occurred when linking file

LINK failed. See Set Linker Options and Linker Reference for more information about linking
an executable.
l .EXE file too large; relink with higher /ALIGN value
f the .EXE file is larger than 800K, you should use the /ALIGN:32 value on your LINK line.
l File not created by LINK
You must create the .EXE file with a version of Microsoft LINK later than 5.0 or with LINKW.
l Invalid .EXE file
Make sure that the linker created the .EXE file correctly and that the file exists. You can check
the .EXE file with the DUMPBIN utility.
l Not a Microsoft Windows format .EXE file
Make sure that the linker created the .EXE file correctly and that the file exists. You can check
the .EXE file with the DUMPBIN utility.
l Unable to create destination
RC was not able to create the destination file. Make sure that there is enough disk space and
that you have write permission on the volume.
l Unable to open exe-file
RC could not open this .EXE file. Make sure that the linker created it correctly and that the file
exists.
Resource Compiler Error RW2001

Invalid directive in preprocessed RC file
The RC file contains a #pragma directive. Use the #ifndef preprocessor directive with the
RC_INVOKED constant that the Resource Compiler defines when it processes an include file. Place
the #pragma directive inside a block of code that is not processed when the RC_INVOKED constant
is defined. Code in the block is processed only by the C/C++ compiler and not by the Resource
Compiler. The following sample code demonstrates this technique:
#ifndef RC_INVOKED
#pragma pack(2) // C/C++ only, ignored by Resource Compiler
#endif
The #pragma preprocessor directive has no meaning in an .RC file. The #include preprocessor
directive is used frequently in an .RC file to include a header file (either a project-based custom header
file or a standard header file provided by Microsoft with one of its products). Some of these include
files contain the #pragma directive. Because a header file can include one or more other header files,
the file that contains the offending #pragma directive may not be immediately obvious. The #ifndef
RC_INVOKED technique can control including header files in project-based header files.

Parsing error
The parsing error can be caused by any of following conditions:
l Accelerator type required (ASCII or VIRTKEY)

The type field in the ACCELERATORS statement must contain either the ASCII or VIRTKEY
value.
l BEGIN expected in accelerator table
l BEGIN expected in dialog
The BEGIN keyword must immediately follow the DIALOG keyword.
l BEGIN expected in menu
The BEGIN keyword must immediately follow the MENU keyword.
l BEGIN expected in RCData
The BEGIN keyword must immediately follow the RCDATA keyword.
l BEGIN keyword expected in string table
The BEGIN keyword must immediately follow the STRINGTABLE keyword.
l Cannot re-use string constants
You are using the same value twice in a STRINGTABLE statement. Make sure you are not
mixing overlapping decimal and hexadecimal values. Each ID in a STRINGTABLE must be
unique. For maximum efficiency use contiguous constants that start on a multiple of 16.
l Control character out of range [^A - ^Z]
A control character in the ACCELERATORS statement is invalid. The character following the
caret (^) must be between A and Z, inclusive.
l Empty menus not allowed
An END keyword appears before any menu items are defined in the MENU statement. Empty
menus are not permitted by the Resource Compiler. Make sure you do not have any open
quotation marks within the MENU statement.
l END expected in dialog
The END keyword must occur at the end of a DIALOG statement. Make sure there are no open
quotes left from the preceding statement.
l END expected in menu
The END keyword must come at the end of a MENU statement. Make sure you do not have
any open quotation marks or a mismatched pair of BEGIN and END statements.
l Expected comma in accelerator Table
RC requires a comma between the event and idvalue fields in the ACCELERATORS statement.
l Expected control class name
The class field of a CONTROL statement in the DIALOG statement must be one of the
following types: BUTTON, COMBOBOX, EDIT, LISTBOX, SCROLLBAR, STATIC, or
user-defined. Make sure the class is spelled correctly.
l Expected font face name
The typeface field of the FONT option in the DIALOG statement must be an ASCII character
string enclosed in double quotation marks. This field specifies the name of a font.
l Expected ID value for menuitem
The MENU statement must contain a menuID field, which specifies the name or number that
identifies the menu resource.
l Expected menu string
Each MENUITEM and POPUP statement must contain a text field, which is a string enclosed in
double quotation marks that specifies the name of the menu item or pop-up menu. A
MENUITEM SEPARATOR statement requires no quoted string.
l Expected numeric command value
RC was expecting a numeric idvalue field in the ACCELERATORS statement. Make sure that
you have used a #define constant to specify the value and that the constant is spelled correctly.
l Expected numeric constant in string table
A numeric constant, defined in a #define statement, must immediately follow the BEGIN
keyword in a STRINGTABLE statement.
l Expected numeric point size
The pointsize field of the FONT option in the DIALOG statement must be an integer point size
value.
l Expected numerical dialog constant
A DIALOG statement requires integer values for the x, y, width, and height fields. Make sure
that these values are included after the DIALOG keyword and that they are not negative.
l Expected string in STRINGTABLE
A string is expected after each stringid value in a STRINGTABLE statement.
l Expected string or constant accelerator command
RC was not able to determine what kind of key is being set up for the accelerator. The event
field in the ACCELERATORS statement might be invalid.
l Expecting number for ID
Expecting a number for the id field of a control statement in the DIALOG statement. Make sure
you have a number or #define statement for the control ID.
l Expecting quoted string in dialog class
The class field of the CLASS option in the DIALOG statement must be an integer or a string,
enclosed in double quotation marks.
l Expecting quoted string in dialog title
The captiontext field of the CAPTION option in the DIALOG statement must be an ASCII
character string enclosed in double quotation marks.
l File not found: filename
moved to another directory and whether the filename or path is typed correctly. Files are
searched for using the INCLUDE environment variable or the Visual Workbench setting, if
available.
l Font names must be ordinals
The pointsize field in the FONT statement must be an integer, not a string.
l Invalid accelerator
An event field in the ACCELERATORS statement was not recognized or was more than two
characters in length.
l Invalid accelerator type (ASCII or VIRTKEY)
The type field in the ACCELERATORS statement must contain either the ASCII or VIRTKEY
value.
l Invalid control character
A control character in the ACCELERATORS statement is invalid. A valid control character
consists of one letter (only) following a caret (^).
l Invalid control type
Each control statement in a DIALOG statement must be one of the following: CHECKBOX,
COMBOBOX, CONTROL, CTEXT, DEFPUSHBUTTON, EDITTEXT, GROUPBOX,
ICON, LISTBOX, LTEXT, PUSHBUTTON, RADIOBUTTON, RTEXT, SCROLLBAR.
Make sure these control statements are spelled correctly.
l Invalid type
The resource type was not among the types defined in the WINDOWS.H file.
l Text string or ordinal expected in control
The text field of a CONTROL statement in the DIALOG statement must be either a text string
or an ordinal reference to the type of control is expected. If using an ordinal, make sure that you
have a #define statement for the control.

l Mismatched parentheses
Make sure you have closed every open parenthesis in the DIALOG statement.
l Unexpected value in RCData
comma. Make sure you did not leave out a comma or leave out a quotation mark around a
string.
l Unknown menu subtype
The item-definition field of the MENU statement can contain only MENUITEM and POPUP
statements.

Generation Error
General errors can be caused by any of following conditions:
l Error: Bitmap file resource-file is not in 3.00 format

Bitmaps using the Windows version 2.x format cannot be used in version 3.x resource files. The
bitmap must be redrawn or converted to 3.x format.
l Error: Old DIB in resource-name.
A Device Independent Bitmap (DIB) in the specified resource is not compatible with the 3.0
format. The bitmap must be redrawn or converted to the 3.x format.
l Error: Resource file resouce-name is not in 3.00 format
An icon or cursor in the specified resource used a previous format. The icon or cursor must be
redrawn or converted to the 3.x format.
l Unknown DIB header format
The bitmap header is not a BITMAPCOREHEADER or BITMAPINFOHEADER structure.
l Bitmap file resource file is not in 2.03 format
A bitmap used a format earlier than version 2.03. The bitmap must be converted or redrawn
using the format for version 3.00 or later.
l Resource file is not in 3.00 format
A cursor or icon used a format earlier than version 3.00. The resource must be converted or
redrawn using the format for version 3.00 or later.
l Unable to open temporary file
The Resource Compiler was unable to open a temporary file. The probable cause is either that
you do not have write permissions for the directory or that the directory does not exist. The
Resource Compiler attempts to use these files in the directory specified by the TMP
environment variable or the current directory if none is specified.
Resource Compiler Warning RW4001

.EXE processing options (/L /M /P /T /K /E /31 or /30)
.EXE processing options (/L /M /P /T /K /E /31 or /30) were specified when no executable file would
be processed. These options can only be used when the result is an .EXE file (not a .RES file).

SHIFT or CONTROL used without VIRTKEY
In an accelerator table resource, SHIFT or CONTROL require VIRTKEY. Because SHIFT and
CONTROL are indicated as flag bits in a VIRTKEY type accelerator, they cannot exist independent
from a VIRTKEY.

ASCII character not equivalent to virtual key code
A string literal was used for the virtual key code in a VIRTKEY type accelerator. This warning lets
you continue, but be aware that the accelerator keys generated may not match the string you
indicated. (VIRTKEYs use different key codes than ASCII accelerators.)
