Lattice Ships Free Compiler Upgrades 
------------------------------------
   
   Lombard, IL -- Lattice, Inc. announces that it will ship free 
upgrades of its Lattice AmigaDOS C Compiler to all registered users. 
All registered customers should receive a 5.04 patch disk by
October 18th, 1989.
  
   "All registered users of the compiler version 5.0x, are being
automatically sent Version 5.04," said Michael Napolitano, Lattice 
customer service manager.  "Periodic free upgrades are just one of 
the ways Lattice demonstrates its commitment to our users.  Lattice 
offers the most technologically-advanced products and many important 
programmer utilities bundled with the compiler.  We also provide 
unlimited free technical support through a variety of means including 
our telephone hotline and 24-hour electronic bulletin board."
    
   Version 5.04 of the Lattice C Compiler for AmigaDOS includes more 
than 50 enhancements to the compiler, libraries, CodePRobe debugger, 
and utilities.  The upgraded version also adds new features including 
allowing equivalent structures to be passed silently with the "-cq" 
switch; allowing more than 32K of code to be generated for a single 
source module; additional support for #pragma  calls  overlapping 
register variables; and support for the UNIX form of offsetof which 
casts NULL to the structure pointer and takes the address of the member. 
A READ.ME file on the update disk describes the changes and installation 
procedure.  All problems reported and assigned Software Modification
Numbers have been addressed.
  
   All registered users of the compiler will receive the 5.04 Patch 
upgrade automatically.  Anyone who does not receive the upgrade due 
to address changes or failure to register should contact Lattice.
