- The thing I would like most to see in an update is the correcting of
- prototypes in headers to indicate when constant pointers can be passed.
-
- (e.g. in clib/dos.h:
-
- BPTR Open (CONST STRPTR name, long accesMode);
- LONG Write (BPTR file, CONST APTR buffer, long length);
- LONG DeleteFile (CONST STRPTR name);
- LONG Rename (CONST STRPTR oldName, CONST STRPTR newName);
- BPTR Lock (CONST STRPTR name, long type);
- ...
