[comp.sys.amiga] Sozobon-C Problems

bard@jessica.Stanford.EDU (David Hopper) (03/23/90)

As a budding C guru, I was hoping someone could help me with a not-so-technical
problem (I just started teaching myself C, so bear with me).

I am going through the newest Kernighan-Ritchie book trying out the different
introductory C programs on the Sozobon-C compiler (zc).  I got to the third
program in the book-- a floating-point version of a Fahrenheit->Celsius con-
verter-- and the executable corrupts the task (I have srt-- it would have
guru'd otherwise).  The program compiles okay, but BLink (version 6.7) chokes
on the Fahrenheit.o file.  It is finding 'undefined functions' in the file, in
the form of 'fp...'.  The .c file is verbatim from the book, and I've made all
the necessary assigns (I'm still on a floppy system).  I am using the 'cc'
front end to compile the thing.  It is the latest version, as far as I know.
The 'zc' compiler is at 1.01.

It compiled 'Hello World' and an integer version of the Fahrenheit converter
with no problems.

Any response will be appreciated (barring "Buy Lattice/Manx"-- I have enough
trouble finding my next meal).

To the best of my knowlege, ZC does not have fully implemented math
libraries.  The version I recieived (Thanks Tad!), had some mention of this
in the docs.  I have only glanced over the version on FF314 which did not
mention anything about the changes to the version I had. (No surprise only
a few people had access to it.)  If anyone has updated/finished the libraries
please contact me.  I'd like to get back into it.  If the author still needs
the "October Sozobon 1.2 update source4s" please send me email, and I will 
gladly send them off to you. (                            

I don't think my messages ever found their way to you.
