D9 Request

Compiler directives to:
* Specify executable output name.
* Turn off exception breakpoints around specific areas of code, just like
using break points (ignore/resume). Break points are a pain.
Also, longer path capabilities. I have been running out of path space and I
am using env names. But some of these vendors use very long path names.
Thanks.

I can think of a number of times when this would have been handy for
me, too. Especially if one could put a macro of some sort on it, so
that each build had a different number embedded in the executable. This
would lead to a history of executables, rather than overwriting on each
build. Handy if you want to compare versions to see how minor changes
impacted operation.

Hi, Kevin,
You could use the old 8.3 versions. Not ideal, I know, but at least
workable. There is code at:
www.advdelphisys.com/Code_Lib/ads_File.html
which will convert the long version to a short one.
