I suspect that this has been discussed before, so just send me email...but, I recently got a copy of system 7.0b4 on my IIsi but Think C 4.0 (I hadn't upgraded to version 4.0.2 yet) crashed when I tried to use it. I subsequently deleted all system 7.0b4 related files. Do other programmers (perhaps real beta testers) know if Think C will run under system 7.0? Since it is one of the main programs I use, my decision to upgrade depends heavily on its functionality under the new operating system. By the way, over the weekend I got the Think Pascal & C upgrade files off the network. Considering that I bought Think Pascal last spring, and Think C last December, one might think that Symantec would have contacted me about the upgrades, but they didn't. Perhaps the changes were so minor that sending out disks to all owners wasn't necessary unless they specifically had problems and called in to Symantec. I certainly hope this was the case. In any event, does anyone know if a Pascal 4.0 or a C 5.0 will be released in response to system 7.0? thanks, rc ------------------------ Randall Cook rcook@eagle.wesleyan.edu ------------------------

The problem was that when you got 7.0b4, you didn't get the version of THINK C that worked with it. When Apple seeded 7.0b4 to developers, we also sent out THINK C and Pascal updates packages. If you've seen references on this net to THINK C 4.0.3, 4.0.4, and 4.0.5, that's what those are. In all respects, I think that 7.0 is going to be just fine. The only problems I've had are programs that don't run in 32-bit mode, but that's it. There's nothing 7.0 can do to fix that... -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keith Rollin --- Apple Computer, Inc.

Speaking of Think...
Has anyone else tried implementing AppleEvents with Think Pascal (3.01 or
whatever the latest version is on the dev CD)? It seems that once you
register an event and run in the environment, the next time you try running
you get a Bus Error somewhere odd.
This is reproduceable with all the sample code as well as some of our own.
Any ideas, fixes, etc. in the pipeline?
Greg.

This is a deep-rooted compatibility issue which will be fixed in a future release of THINK Pascal.
