2.4.8 Starting the BHT-BASIC Compiler from the

Command Line

You may start the BHT-BASIC Compiler from the command line in the MS-DOS Prompt of

Windows95/98 or WindowsNT4.0/Windows2000.

[ 1 ] Syntax

At the MS-DOS command prompt, type in the following format:

BHTC35W [options] [[directorypath]filename…][options]

directorypath

You may specify either an absolute path or relative path. Omitting

this option will make the Compiler look for that file in the current work-

ing directory. Specifications of directorypath only is not allowed.

filename You may specify the name of any of a project file, source file and

library file.

options You may specify compiler processing options, compiling options, and

linking option. For details, refer to the next item, [ 2 ], "Options."

NOTE

The Compiler will recognize a project specified by filename merely as a group of

files. If you do not specify a +BL option (Building library described in [ 2 ]), there-

fore, the Compiler automatically produces a user program.

TIP

To produce a user program from a single source file in a batch file, type in the follow-

ing:

>START /W BHTC35W +E +B TEST.SRC

Writing START /W as above will not proceed to the next batch processing until the

BHT-BASIC 3.5 Compiler completes the processing. For details about +E or +B

option, refer to “[ 2 ] Options” in this subsection.
