[comp.sys.transputer] dynamic loading and vector-space

A4424DAA@AWIUNI11.BITNET (Walter Muellner) (02/08/91)

HELP!!!

We are using a transputer network consisting of 9 T800. The
host system is an IBM AT with a B008 evaluation board.
The programming environment on the PC are the ITOOLS.

We would like to dynamically load the code of separately
compiled procedures using the predefined KERNEL.RUN procedure.

This is possible, but only without using the "vector-space".
(This is done by setting some compiler switches).
When compiling programs WITH vector space, the KERNEL.RUN does not
work at all, although we have set up the address of the vector
space (the vector space pointer) as described in the manuals.

our questions are:

a) HOW can we load programs which make use of the vector space?
   (i.e. programs which are compiled without the /v option)
b) How must the addresses be set up in the calling procedure??
   (the examples from the manual don't seem to work)

Thanx for any suggestions!
Walter & Jana
