Hi there..
Just wondering if anyone could help me with the amiga data types as
defined in exec/types.h..
Common problems I am having are scanning a UBYTE[] into UWORD
components.. like this
UBYTE dest[21];
strcpy (dest, "366/359.3");
sscanf(dest, "%d/%d.%d", &net, &node, &point);
where net, node and point are UWORD net, node, point;
when i
printf("%d/%d.%d\n", net, node, point);
i get something like
359/3.0
???? Any ideas?! Im really stuck, i have tried all sorts of casting and
could get nothing to work except when
int net, node, point;
it worked right..
thanks in advance.

If so, try: sscanf(dest, "%ld/%ld.%ld", &net, &node, &point); -- Ken Farinsky - CATS - Commodore Business Machines
