I take it you are referring to Windoze & the PC?

In my long gone days of FORTRAN 77, I understood that variables were passed into subroutines by reference. Maybe it's changed these days, what with gigabytes of memory and stuff.

Makes one wonder how the unqualified doctors that are exposed every now & again get away with it... The favourite prescription of one such was a tablespoon of shampoo... Still I suppose it did less harm prescribing shampoo rather than some of the other drugs available...:o)

Do you mean conditional compilation?

IT8212 PCI hard disk controller card. ATAPI or RAID. Following yet another lost day fighting with hardware, software and Windoze(tm)... I thought I'd post this to save others from the hassle... Bought some unidentified IT8212 PCI card made in Taiwan. This provides two more IDE interfaces...

There must be a linker in the package to link the object modules from the compiler together...

You may find more help in the Assembly forum.

What machine, operating system & compiler are you using?

Oh, how the mighty are fallen...

I've used kludges like call system( "DIR C:\directory >DIRFILE" ) to generate a file of the directory, then read the directory file into the program. It isn't pretty but it does work...

Unless the compiler writer gives you an option... The Keil 8051 compiler has specific commands that locate data in flash/eprom rather than copying it to ram...

Hurrah to all of that...
