Bug 2003 – Absolute path for -odobjdir triggers compiler stack overflow

When passing an absolute path to the dmd compiler under Windows XP SP2, dmd.exe will return "Stack Overflow" with no other information. It seems at the very least a valid file has to be passed. The file can be blank, a valid or invalid D input file; It does not seem the file even gets parsed, so I'd imagine the bug is in the argument parsing. example: dmd.exe -odobjdirC:\AAAA test.d test.d being a blank d file. It seems the file must at least be a d source file. If an executable or library is passed for example, it will not trigger a stack overflow.

I can't duplicate a problem. BTW, the correct command line syntax is: dmd.exe -odC:\AAAA test.d
