VB compile - show all errors

Hi,

Is it possible to compile a VB6 Project and have ALL errors listed, not just the first (followed by compile termination)?

I've tried doing a batch compile as follows, but the compilation still halts at the first error:-

CD "\VisualStudio\VB98\"

Vb6.exe /make "E:\projname.vbp" "H:\projname.exe" /out "H:\projname.err" /outdir "H:\"

I'm using VB6 Enterprise Edition - any advice appreciated.

TIA.

As to me, it's not possible. Because VB is rather interpreter than compiler such as C++.

I thought VB6 compiled to 8086 (?) code, unlike VB5 and prior which (as you say) were interpreters.

Yes, it compiles to native or p-code.
Sure, I did't say it's "poor" interpreter like ASP but nevertheless VB compiler is unable to find all errors in the code ...

In the good-old-days, we'd hand-code the entire program on coding sheets, send it off to the punching bureau, wait a few days, feed the resultant pack of cards into the beast, get back the compile listing (when the ops took time off from their coffee break), wade through all the errors, use a line editor to correct the errors, submit the compile... ahh! those were the days.

Now I've got to wait 2 minutes for the compiler to show me a single error - that's progress, I suppose.

What is your project if it's compiled more than 2 minutes ??

BTW, you can try Numega software. It provides a lot of usefull tools.

Okay – I exaggerate – 15-20 seconds is more accurate. But 20 seconds * 10 errors is three minutes of my life wasted.

Thanks - I'll have a look.
