Does anyone know whether or not MPW C 2.02 will work correctly under the MPW 3.0 shell? I will have to get 2.02 C and want to know if I will also have to get the 2.02 shell. I already have MPW 3.0 (shell and C). rick@wam.umd.edu rick@bagend.eng.umd.edu

The C calling conventions have changed from 2.0 to 3.0. Trying to link your code with the CRuntime and CLibraries would cause a colling convention conflict. This may be the least of your problems. I haven't mixed things up like you want, so I don't know if there are any other compatibility problems (like, does it even compile without crashing...). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keith Rollin --- Apple Computer, Inc. --- Developer Technical Support INTERNET: keith@apple.com UUCP: {decwrl, hoptoad, nsc, sun, amdahl}!apple!keith "Argue for your Apple, and sure enough, it's yours" - Keith Rollin, Contusions

I did it because I did not want to spend the extra money to upgrade C for the little use I put it to. Now remember, I am using the MPW C 2.02 includes and libraries, too. As I said, I don't use it much, so there could be problems I haven't seen yet... -- Gerald A. Edgar Department of Mathematics The Ohio State University Columbus, OH 43210
