The following example shows that options in the command line override options in an environment variable.
SET ILINK=/NOI /AL:256 /DE cob2 test cob2 /NODEF /NODEB prog
The first command above sets the environment variable ILINK to the options /NOIGNORECASE, /ALIGNMENT:256, and /DEBUG.
The second command links test.obj, using the options specified in ILINK, to produce test.exe.
The last command links prog.obj to produce prog.exe, using the options /NODEFAULTLIBRARYSEARCH and /NODEBUG in addition to the options /NOIGNORECASE and /ALIGNMENT:256. /NODEBUG in the command line overrides the /DEBUG setting in the environment variable.
