IVF 8.1.21 fix

Did I read the release notes of the IVF 8.1.21 version correctly to state that there is now an unlimited number of object files supported for the linker ?

Thanks,

BTW, what I meant is that version 8.1.21 sends a response file to the linker instead of the names of the object files. The response file has all the names of the object files in it. So, if you have 4000+ object files, you do not have to have a bunch of static libraries built in order to use IVF.

Thanks,

That is correct, but there's a problem with the implementation that it does not quote the path to the response file. If your project is in a folder whose path contains a space, the link will fail. This will be fixed.
