I've enabled this option because of a cross platform project and I've discovered a bug.
Compiling this program with mingw
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
for (int i = 0; i < argc; i++)
{
printf( "%s\n", argv[ i ]);
}
}
C:\temp>gcc x.c -std=c99
Runnng it in cmd 10.0.10240
C:\temp>c:/temp/a.exe
c:/temp/a.exe
Running it in tccle 14.00.4
[C:\temp]c:/temp/a.exe
c:
/temp/a.exe
It runs the correct executable but somehow the parameters are passed incorrectly. This obviously causes problems for some programs.
I tested it with visual studio 2015 community edition
[C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64]vcvars64.bat
[C:\temp]cl x.c
and it exhibits the same problem in build 6.
[C:\temp]c:/temp/x.exe
c:
/temp/x.exe
[C:\temp]cmd
