This article was previously published under Q59279 SYMPTOMS
When Microsoft LINK creates an overlaid executable file and the
linker command line includes the /INC[REMENTAL] option, the linker
may create a working executable file and generates one of the
following messages:
L4013: Overlays: option ignored for segmented-executable file
L4014: /INCREMENTAL : Option ignored for real mode executable
file
If no warning appears, LINK follows an unpredictable execution
path. In this case, the executable file may be corrupted and should
not be used.
CAUSE
LINK does not support using the /INCREMENTAL switch with overlays
because the ILINK.EXE program, invoked by the /INC option, does not
support overlays. The linker ignores one of the two options.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft LINK versions 5.3 and later do not support incremental
linking.
