Zeus IDE

I do not know if this is a configuration problem or a bug.

I setup my project using project option to run a .bat file that does stuff to compile my project. This .bat file has been used for years on NT, 2000, and XP with no problems.

Everytime I build the project I get this doskey.exe - Application Error dialog box to pop-up. When I click the OK button, another doskey.exe -Application Error dialog box pops up.

The .bat file completes and project completed with no errors. This batch file does call another batch file that does call doskey. Why am I getting this error when I use Zeus for Windows but when I use my current editor Codewright, It works just find? Is this a bug?

I download the latest trial version to check this editor out. I used to use Codewright V7.5 but this editor sometimes hangs-up. Expecially if SoftICE is loaded.

Can you post the contents of thsi batch file to the end of this thread.

but this editor sometimes hangs-up. Expecially if SoftICE is loaded.

The Zeus software protection is provided by the AsProtect product. AsProtect has special anti-debugging detection built in and I suspect it is this might be causing the hang

Thanks for the reply.
After analyzing the batch file, I realized that the doskey command was not needed.

This batch file was obtained from the Microsoft DDK and was used to setup the environment. I used it to setup the environment and compile my driver. Doskey.exe was not needed.

I have the same problem.

I have a CMD_Startup.BAT for each CMD.exe invocation where the doskey.exe is being used:

Code: Select all

@doskey d=dir $*
@doskey n=notepad $*
@doskey home=cd /d "%USERPROFILE%"
@doskey ..=cd ..\..
@doskey ...=cd ..\..\..
@doskey dot=dopusrt /cmd GO PATH="$*"
@doskey don=dopusrt /cmd GO NEW PATH="$*"

Each of these doskey instances crashes, but the tool, as configured in Zeus, gets executed. When I use the CMD console manually this problem does not appear.
Also of interest may be, that, if I open just a DOS shell (the one preconfigured in Zeus, named xDOS), this problem does not occur either.
