Bug in BUILD for .cpp and .c files with same base name

NTDEV

I see the BUILD program is confused if your driver has two files with the
same base name but one with a suffix .c and the other .cpp. Even though the
SOURCES files says whatever.cpp is part of your project, if you also have a
whatever.c file that’s what get’s compiled.

Can someone remind me of the DDK bug reporting email address?

The issue here is that base name is what is used to create the
dependency on the obj created (ie foo.cpp and foo.c both would compile
to foo.obj). This is a known issue, just don’t use the same base name.
