C:\dev\jdk-dev>cl -I %OPENJDK%\src\java.security.jgss\share\native\libj2gss\ sspi.cpp ^ More? -link -dll -out:sspi_bridge.dll 'cl' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. This `More?` prompt identifies the continuation line. Anyway, we decided to leave it as is but convert to multi-line comment, which is fine with me. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/12305
