COMBINED and variable definition syntax in cds.lib file

psill00

Is it possible when using COMBINED in the cds.lib to have the lib definitions on multiple lines?

It just makes edit the files easier

From:

COMBINED lib1 lib2 lin3... lib15

To:

COMBINED lib1...lib5

                    lib6... lib10

                    lib11... lib15

Also, some lib path can get long, is it possible to define a variable in the cds.lib file put in place of a portion of the path?

    Not as far as I know. I found an old change request discussing this (when there had been a character limit reached) but that's been fixed for some time now an didn't involve adding support for splitting over multiple lines - other than breaking it up into hierarchical chunks - i.e. combining a set of libraries, and then combining those combined libraries and so on.

    Regards,

    Andrew
