Bug ID: 27686 Summary: windres: fails with "nul bytes found in version string" Product: binutils Version: unspecified Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: binutils Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: mark at harmstone dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 13343 --> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=13343&action=edit patch Recent versions of RC.EXE seem to add more padding to the end of version blocks than windres is expecting, leading to this error message. I probably can't attach a sample here, but this is the case for all versions of Windows 10 Notepad that I've encountered - let me know if you can't reproduce. The solution would seem to be for windres to only consider the stated length of the version block, and ignore the length of the surrounding resource entry - see the attached patch, which fixes the issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
