destination Specifies the name of the destination file. When you specify a source file without
a destination filename, the utility creates a file with an underscore that replaces the last letter of
the file extensions. For example, when you type MakeCAB NewFile.txt and press Enter, the utility
produces an output file with the name NewFile.tx_.
/F directive_file Specifies the name of a Diamond Directive File (DDF) that contains
instructions for creating complex archives. You can specify multiple files, some of which are
compressed and others that aren??™t. Using a DDF, you can create an archive that spans multiple
disks. The MAKECAB.DOC file in the \cabsdk\DOCS directory of the Microsoft Cabinet Software
Development Kit tells how to create a DDF.
/D var=value Defines variable settings for the MakeCAB utility. These variables control how
MakeCAB works. For example, you can tell MakeCAB to create an archive without compressing
any of the files by using the COMPRESS=OFF directive. You can find a complete list of variables
and their associated values in section ???4.2.2. Variable Summary??? of the Microsoft Cabinet
Software Development Kit.
