I'm trying this request for help one more time. My first request yielded no responses... I need to know several things about advanced programming in ACTION! : 1) Is it possible to "chain" ACTION! programs (load in and execute a new program at termination of first program). 2) Is it possible to invoke the ACTION! compiler from within a program. (lets say that I have a source file on disk and I wish to have a program invoke the compiler to compile the file from disk into memory). All you probably need is the entry point that the ACTION! monitor calls when you type the "C" command; as well as knowing where this routine expects to find the file name. 3) Is there some magical document that explains the above and other mysteries (e.g. symbol table format ...) Please (!!!!!!) reply with ANY information to me at the following address. Alan J. Broder ajb@mitre.arpa (703)883-5614 (office - voice)
