Thanks for the response

I managed to build the library using a manual command using a wild card in the object string "build/*.o"

Dave,

I'm guessing the command line for the library archiver in the makefile is too long to process. I'll have to look into the issue.

I am trying to build a large library from 5463 object files and it fails with the following error message.

==============================================================================
Generating OpenCascade.a
The filename or extension is too long.

Error(E42): Last command making (OpenCascade.a) returned a bad status
Error(E02): Make execution terminated

* Failed *

Is there any way to get around this or do I have to split it down into a series of smaller libraries.

Thanks,

Dave Swabey
