Something I learned at the DECUS Symposium... If you put VAXCRTL.EXE into a library (say sys$library:imagelib.olb), and then link against the image library it, you will get errors, especially with i/o routines that use standard in and out. The linker fails to overlay the data psects properly. The solution is to not place VAXCRTL.EXE into a library and to link against it explicitly. The guy DEC with the C RTL hoped that the bug in the linker will be fixed soon, but that it definitely wasn't fixed in VMS 4.4. ---------------- Marty Sasaki uucp: harvard!sasaki Harvard University Science Center arpa: sasaki@harvard.harvard.edu One Oxford Street bitnet: sasaki@harvunxh Cambridge, MA 02138 phone: 617-495-1270
