After all the problems I have been having with the code generated by TurboC, I have decided to change compilers for my Novell developement work. So, does anyone on the net have experience with the Novell C compiler? Is it just the straight watcom C compiler, and does it have an integrated developement environment, source code debugger, profiler etc?

But I do have a question and a comment on TurboC. Question: What version of TurboC are you using? What is the nature of your problems? Comment: I am using Borland C++ v2.0 and NetWare C Interface for DOS (CID) v1.10. I have reported a number of bugs to Borland for the Development Environment, but never for the compiler. In fact, I have one program that bombs when compiled by MSC 5.1 and works when compiled by Borland C++. Jim Serwer jims%svcs1@mips.com or ...!uunet!mips!svcs1!jims

But I decided to give it up after getting really frustrated with the documentations. Now I am using Turbo C++ 2.0. At this moment, I am still feeling my way with the new compiler and keeping my finger crossed that it will work with netware. Anybody got comment on how well Turbo C++ will work on netware? As I see it, I would MUCH rather use assembly, except Novell charge $200 for their system call libaries. Am I the only one that think this kind of robbery should be outlawed? -Amos Yung -- ******************************************************************************* Amos Yung * " Don't be silly.
