6265 :: NOOB: WINIM is causing my linker to throw an error ...

  Hi,

  I try to compile a little tool with CLANG (it works with the default compiler).

  Apparently the file winim-3.3.3\winim\lib\winimx64.res or winim-3.3.3\winim\lib\winim64.res is the problem.

  ANY object file (.o) after it will throw an error of:

  fatal error LNK1107: invalid or corrupt file: cannot read at

  My guess is that the ".res" files are pre-compiled with a DIFFERENT compiler and thus my CLANG linker is "confused" ?

  Any help /ideas ?

  Thanks

  Robert

  It's precisely what is going on and the fix could be something like res2obj file.res and link the .obj file instead.
