Has anybody received already received their upgrade for MWC 3.0? I have mailed in my upgrade card on Easter Monday, and received nothing up to now. Thanx, Ralf Bayer, Data General Corp., Germany

Yes, I just received my update yesterday and I installed it last night. I haven't re-compiled anything yet. I did try the Csd on a couple of the examples and it looks pretty neat, although "dbxtool" on suns it's not :-). I wonder how it will do in real production with larger modules... The resource editor looks nice too, but I don't have any good uses for it right now. Well anyway, 3.0 does really exist and is shipping. -- /* Ingo Cyliax * * ...!ihnp4!pur-ee!cyliax ECN, Electrical Engineering Bldg. * * cyliax@ecn.purdue.edu Purdue University, W.

While trying to debug a large bit of code (6 files about 30,000 lines of code, one of the files produced by a special processor) I ran into the problem of "where the heck am i". My brother is a Beta tester for MWC and had beta test version 2.9 (or the version with 2.9 beta MWC). I took my code over to his place, recompiled it and started looking through it with CSD. Ran into immediate problems. I don't know about the shiped version but #line preprocessor statements got this version lost. I edited the file produced by my special processor to delete the #line statements and retried. I had the answer to my addressing problems figured out, fixed, tested and gone 10 minutes latter. My opinion of CSD is: THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! THANK YOU!!!! Product of the year for the ST. One other little problem is I can't seem to get it to work with Beckmeyers Multi tasking Shell but I think it is something I have set up wrong. I am looking forward to the new manuals coming out but I might suggest to Mark Williams (or David Beckmeyer) that they include a section on setting up MWC and the MT-Shell to run together. -- Johnnie --

I'll write something up.
