I just got Orca/Pascal yesterday and have the following problem: the
sample programs don't link successfully.
Actually, the "sort.pas" program works, but the "bullseye.pas" doesn't
get through the second pass of the linker. I get several "unresolved
reference label" errors involving "put2", "puts" and similar references.
It appears to involve output of character strings.
To narrow things down, I tried running the standard "hello world" program.
program test (output); program test2 (output);
begin begin
writeln('Hello, world...'); writeln(5);
end. end.
The program on the left failed the same way on the link step, while the
program on the right worked perfectly.
Anyone have a clue?

Comment to message from: pnet01!crash!cunyvm.cuny.edu!STEIN%UCONNVM.BITNET (Alan Stein) Your problems with "unresolved reference label" and the PUTs sounds like the one I had several months ago after updating with a new release of Orca/Pascal. My problem turned out to be incompatible versions of the various supporting routines in the ORCA/M and ORCA/Pascal packages. I used InfoDesk (Prosel) to catalog the diskettes to my printer. Then I very carefully loaded the LATEST version of each file from whichever disk had it. Voila! A working Orca/Pascal. I, too, had been unable to say "Hello, World." Now, if I could just learn Pascal...

Comment to message from: pnet01!crash!cunyvm.cuny.edu!STEIN%UCONNVM.BITNET (Alan Stein) I had the same type of problem a coulpe of times, and I could never find a real solution, however, the problem (if it is the same one appears to be transient and seems to go away after I cold start the system. I know there is a major bug in linker v1.1, and I dont know whether that has anything to do with it. Also, I can't seem to get the sample 'FRAME.PAS' program to compile at all. It keeps smashing on a line right out of the manual: (something) := ord4(@'OK'); for a button text. Also on the subject of O/P, the associated Desktop program gives me all sorts of grief, so much so in fact, that I've deleted it from all but my original disks. - bwm at: bwm@pro-europa

Network Comment: to #1519 by obsolete!STEIN%UCONNVM.BITNET%cunyvm.cuny.edu Check the order you have your lib files in path 2. They should be alphabetical, PasLib then SysLib. If you create your own, they should be first in line... << MCT >> BCS Apple/Boston Connection [MCT] (617) 893-5681 GEnie M.Tiernan AppleLinkPE M Tiernan BCS Net Michael Tiernan obsolete!pro-angmar!m.tiernan@bloom-beacon.mit.edu obsolete!pro-angmar!m.tiernan@bu-it.bu.edu pro-angmar!m.tiernan@obsolete.uucp m.tiernan@pro-angmar.cts.com

In the following Orca/Pascal procedure, the char variable 'c' read in
on line {1} seems to be ignored in line {2}, where none of the
alternatives are being executed no matter what keys I press for 'c'.
The value for 'c' is being correctly printed in line {3}. I can't find
anything wrong. Does anyone else see anything?
procedure doarithmeticoperation;
{perform an arithmetic operation mod m}
var c:char;
a,b,m,x:integer;
begin
writeln;
writeln('Calculate a OP b MOD m');
writeln;
write('Type in a: ');readln(a);
write('Choose an operation -- a,s,m,e');readln(c);
write('Type in b: ');readln(b);
write('Type in m: ');readln(m);
readln(c); {1}
if (c='a') then x:= a+b MOD m {2}
else if (c='s') then x:= a-b MOD m
else if (c='m') then x:= a*b MOD m
else if (c='e') then x:= raise(a,b,m);
writeln;writeln('(',a,')',c,'(',b,') = ',x,' mod ',m); {3}
end {doarithmeticoperation};
