Description

Using this option, the Compiler uses a return code to report errors back to the tools. When errors occur, 16-bit window environments use err.log files, containing a list of error numbers, to report the errors. If no errors occur, the 16-bit window environments delete the err.log file. Using UNIX or WIN32, the return code makes the err.log file unnecessary when only UNIX or WIN32 applications are involved.

Note: If you use a 16-bit maker with this tool, you must create the error file to signal any errors.
Example
  -WErrFileOn 
  

This creates or deletes the err.log file when the application finishes.

  -WErrFileOff 
  

The application does not modify the existing err.log file.
