[comp.sys.mac.programmer] MPW C 3.1 & Mac Incompatibility

commons@Sunburn.Stanford.EDU (Peter Commons) (11/07/90)

I have an application that currently runs on a IIci and a IIx but refuses to 
run on an SE (in some specific locations). The application was compiled on
MPW C 3.1 WITHOUT any fancy processor options (68020, 68881). Is there some
C library code (eg C SANE lib) or something else that might suggest why this 
would happen?

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean by 'refuses to run'?  If you're getting bus errors
you might be accessing memory in an unaligned fashion, which is
supported on the '020 and '030, but not the 68000.

If it's something else, perhaps the version of the operating system on
the SE is too old and you're trying to use some feature which it
doesn't support.
