[comp.sys.amiga] 68881 and Modula-2

mlandis@nmsu.CSNET (12/07/87)

I own the Microbotics Multifinction module and a 68881 coprocessor. I have been
trying to write routines under Benchmark Modula-2 to access the IEEE libraries
provided by Microbotics with their MFM. All attempts have failed miserably, I 
have not been able to even open the libraries with an OpenLibrary call without g
getting a visit from the guru. Can anyone give me a clue?

Is TDI or the new compiler I keep seeing (M2Amiga) easier or better to do this 
with? Any comments from anyone using a 68881 and Modula 2 would be helpful.

        WhoEverYouAre,

                I have not tried to do this, but if you have made a reasonable
             effort, and still have not succeeded, I recommend you call Leon
             Frenkel.  He can be reached at Avante Gaurd Software, phone j#
             (214) 964-0260 [Dallas].

                I suspect the problem has to do with the different parameter
             conventions used by M2 vs. C.  If so this should not pose a 
             major problem.  Please let me know what you find out, as I will
             probably have to tackle this problem in the near future also.

                                                        Thanx,

                                                                Wade.
