[classlib][build] linker failure does not stop the build
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HARMONY-3325
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-3325
             Project: Harmony
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Classlib
         Environment: cygwin
            Reporter: Vladimir Beliaev


I know the cygwin is not officially supported, still looks like a lot of contributers are using it...

The problem is that: if one is building classlib from newly installed cygwin then cygwin's 'link' tool is in the PATH before msvc linker - so cygwin linker is used whih causes "do not understand options" error like in trace example below.

Still, the build does not stop with error reporting the build is SUCESSFULL. It is confusing & it makes diagnistics to be a bit more complex.

Please get it fixed.

     [exec]    Creating library <trunk>\working_classlib\deploy\lib\print.lib and object <trunk>\working_classlib\deploy\lib\print.exp
     [exec] 	link  /debug /opt:icf /opt:ref /INCREMENTAL:NO /NOLOGO  -entry:_DllMainCRTStartup -dll /BASE:0x13300000 -machine:AMD64  /comment:"Print native code. (c) Copyright 2005 - 2006 The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors, as applicable."  -subsystem:windows -out:..\print.dll -map:..\print.map  print.obj  ui.obj print.res  ws2_32.lib Iphlpapi.lib  kernel32.lib  ws2_32.lib advapi32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib  comdlg32.lib winspool.lib  <trunk>\working_classlib\deploy\lib\print.exp
     [exec] /usr/bin/link: invalid option -- e
     [exec] Try `/usr/bin/link --help' for more information.
     [exec] 	if exist ..\print.dll.manifest  mt -manifest ..\print.dll.manifest -outputresource:..\print.dll;#2

The known workaround is to remove cygwin linker from PATH.

Thanks
Vladimir Beliaev
