A LNK1175 error message is not returned when you specify an invalid base address of your application executable file in Visual Studio 2005 (907293)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team System Architect Edition
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team System Developer Edition
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team System Team Foundation:
SYMPTOMSYou use the Microsoft Common Object File Format (COFF) Binary File Editor
(EDITBIN.exe) to set the base address of your application executable file
by using the /REBASE option. When you specify an invalid base address, no error message is
returned. You expect to receive an error message that is similar to the
following: LINK : fatal error LNK1175: failed to /REBASE
test.dll CAUSEThis problem occurs when Editbin calls the Image Help Library (Imagehlp.dll). The library does not return the error code when the REBASE operation
fails. This problem does not occur in Microsoft Windows Server 2003. However, this problem occurs in earlier versions of Microsoft Windows. STATUSMicrosoft
has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed
in the "Applies to" section.
