I can compile it without '-g' switch 

p.s. 
I have VS2005 installed, but it seems that it's link.exe is not located in PATH.

OptLink is complaining about your PATH, apparently. Have you tried setting to 
something shorter?

Thank you very much!
It works now. 

Looks like OptLink can't understand the path if there are spaces in it...

OPTLINK was written in assembler, back in the days when dinosaurs roamed
the Earth, and people still thought DOS was a pretty neat idea.

You could use a copy of the OPTLINK source code to calibrate a carbon
dating machine.

The first ever recorded version of OPTLINK was programmed on a rock by
something with prehensile feet.

:P

All joking aside, OPTLINK, as you noted, is not terribly fond of spaces.
 Also, if you have a multicore machine and your compile seems to be
taking rather longer than normal, odds are OPTLINK is spinning and
you'll have to kill it.

That said, it *is* fast. :)
