I am playing around with think c 7.0 for the first time. I have an equation
I need to put into a program. I have been looking at the examples under the
reference program, but I am clueless.
This is the equation:
ln (y/f)^12
x = _____________
ln 2
ln b
x= _________
ln 2
b=(y/f)^12
Maybe the second one will help clarify the question . . . I asked some people
that didn't understand the notation of the first.
Oh, f = 261.63
ln (y/261.63)^12
x = ____________________
ln 2
y, will be coming from sound input, frequency. I need to solve for x
the big problem may be that this has to run in real time. . . as fast as
possible.
thanks for your help,

The fastest way to solve this equation would be by doing a table lookup based on
the precalculated values for x from each value of y, assuming the range of y
allows this. If y has a limited range but is a floating point number you could
interpolate the x for the fractional portion of y to obtain more accurate results.

It hasn't been dead as in "the list software was down." It has been
dead because no one has had anything to say (apparently). Symantec's
language products just don't seem too popular anymore. I wonder
why...

Hello
I am drawing a picture to a gworld using a custom GetPic proc. If
the picture is compressed and decompressing fills the heap,
quickdraw crashes without giving me a chance to react. Is there a
way to cancel a drawpicture from within my GetPic proc if I predict
a memory shortage? Any other suggestions...

How useful is the profiler in Think C? I used it for a while to monitor
performance of some subroutines. As the program grew in size when I tried
to use the profiler again the returned information was incomplete. First,
certain procedures which were definitely called by the program were not
reported, later the profiler log file was plain empty!
Did anybody else observe this?
Thanks for your advice,

Subject: Help: code size explosion
I've been developing an application starting with Think C 5.0.x and TCL 1.1.x
and have recently ported it to the 68k C++ compiler (Think C 7.0.6). The
standalone application size has doubled - from roughly 380k to nearly 900k.
Is there anything I can do to reduce the size? I've tried to figure out if
there are any parts of TCL 2.0.5 I can leave out but there are so many
dependencies between classes that it seems to be impossible to isolate
parts even though my code does not use them. Any help you can offer would
be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

This topic gets rather religious after a while ... beware.
Personally, I ended up switching from Think C/C++ to CodeWarrior
to take advantage of my company's PowerPC. I like the development
environment then and now. I kinda feel sorry for Symantec, tho'.
I have seen their v8.x stuff and it looks pretty cool, except that it only
ran on PowerPCs which was (still is?) a problem for my 68K associates.
Good luck.

Do I remember correctly that ThinkC 5 has a debugging bug that causes bombs
and things after calls to PBGetCatInfo while the debugger is going? I keep
getting a number of random bombs after such calls, but cannot reproduce
them when the debugger is off. Does this sound familiar?

Is this version just priced differently, or does it come with limited
features? Does it compile for both cpus? I've never heard of it before?

Codewarrior Academic is equivalent to the fully featured CodeWarrior. It
will compile for both CPUs, and now will compile x86 code also. I'm not
sure what platinum is... but early on when there was only Bronze, Silver
and Gold, the academic was equiv to the Gold.
I think the only restriction is that you can't produce Commercial software
with the Academic version. (shareware is allowed)

Message written at 15 Jan 1996 09:53:35 +0000
I have detected a bug in the ANSI C library which is a problem to me,
so as well as reporting it I have fixed the source, but now I cannot
rebuild the libraries.
The fix is in file.c, and affects both 68K and PCC.
If I attempt to build a PPC versio of teh library I variously get
error -1708 and 1024. I think I am totally confused with shared
libraries and static libraries. In the latest attempt I have included
PCCANSI.(pi) in my project, and when I attempt to bring my project up
to date it then keeps jumping to PCCANSI and asks me where to build
PCCANSI.(pi) and then says it couldn't complete the last command as it
could not locate ToolServer, whatever that it.
If I change the library to other types I get other odd efects like always
asking to rebuild the library, and then not creating the application.
i have tried reading teh manual but it does not seem to offer any
detailed advise.
I would appreciate a description of how to rebuild a fixed library for
both architectures in all styles. I have tried including all the
sources from the library directly in my project and that seemed to
fail as well, in various bizarre ways.

The Academic Version of CodeWarrior is only available to students (and
possibly others in the world of academia), and the license states that it
cannot be used to produce commercial software. If you want to create
something for sale, you have to upgrade to the full version to stay within
the terms of the license. For more details, ask this question on the
CodeWarrior newsgroup where it is more appropriate.
Since this is Symantec's list, I should point out that Symantec also has
academic pricing plans, or at least did the last time I talked to someone
in academia about it. If you are interested in Symantec's options, ask
them.

It really is the exact same thing as the Gold version: even the discs are

Am I alone in having problems with the Symantec Debugger for PowerMac
C? It seems very sensitive, in the sense that it will not run for any
but the most trivial programs. I have had the advise previously to
remove the preference file, and in that case it did actually allow it
to start. In my present application it gets as far as creating a
window called "Source" before removing all its windows and stopping,
with no comment. Does anyone have any advice as how to debug
programs?

The bug to which I refere is what happens when one attempt to open the
33rd file. The code calls __getfile() to find a free entry in the iob
array, and fails, and so returns NULL. This is passed to freopen as
the last argument. The net call is to __parse_mode which promplu
writes to the read_prohibited and write_prohibited fileds of the
(non-existent) FILE*. Later in the actual open call it wil return teh
NULL and record the error in errno, but it is too late. A simpel fix
is in __parse_mode to add as the first thing
if (fp == NULL) return 1;
There are of course other ways of fixing it.
I also have a problem with FOPEN_MAX being so small, but that is not a
bug but a nuisance!
Thank you for your comments about Applescript. I do not remember
disabling it, but then I have never knowingly used it as I could not
find any documentation for it or any examples. I will try as soon as
I can get to the Macintosh. I only hope I can find out if it exists.

I'm quite a beginner and I'm trying to access a VME bus usin the MAC as a master
trough a MICRON card. The problem is that the routine I've written should test
the presence of a register at a specific location. This migth lead at a bus
error if the location is not physically present. I'd like to make my function to
return safely from such access, making me know if there was such an error.
Has someone ever faced this problem or has an example of how to do that (maybe a

I am wondering if anyone knows were to get TC 7.0 compatible
Universal Headers 7.5. Version 7.1 came with the system,
but now I seem to have a project that uses the 7.5 headers.
I have CodeWarrior 7, which has them, but the precompiled
headers had to be recombined under TC (which was fine),
and of course the MacTraps and ANSI libraries don't work
(which is not fine).
I can't find anything on the Symantec FTP or Web sites,
and I cannot upgrade to TC 8.0 because I have a 68k machine.
Any ideas here?
Please send e-mail as well as posting to the list.

I'm having some problems though not as serious as yours. I have a project
with just under 250 source files. I can run the project under the
debugger, but the data window won't display any values -- just "out of
memory". That's bogus because I've given the debugger as much as 30Mb!
I posted a question on Symantec's web site earlier this week, but so far I
haven't received a reply, let alone a solution. Is anyone from Symantec
reading this list?

Steve,
We now offer an upgrade to C/C++ 7.0.5 for 68k only. It contains the latest=
Universal Headers 2.1 plus the latest TCL and Visual Architect with=
documentation in Acrobat PDF format. The upgrade is $49.95. Otherwise,=
there is no legitimate way of getting our headers and libraries. We also=
offer free email support on the Internet with 24 hour or better turnaround=
on business days. All technical support questions go to support@devtools.s=

You can also upgrade to version 8.0 because it includes the complete 68k=
environment as well. The upgrade is $149.95 which includes an annual=
subscription for two more update CD's. There is over 300 meg of code and=
developer information on the CD including Think Reference and all the=
databases. We will be shipping a fat Symantec Project Manager that=
produces both 68k and PowerPC code in an upcoming release.

It just stopped working for me a couple of weeks ago:
The source and data windows come up (all white) and then it just holds.
Pressing cmd-power reveals the current process is the Symantec Project
Manager. Also my program is present, but cannot be brought to the
front. Restarting is the only way to clean things up, after es-ing
the PM and debugger (otherwise restarting is not possible).
Very annoying.
So any solutions are greatly appreciated!

What version of the Symantec Project Manager and debugger are you using? =
Sometimes it's counterproductive to throw large amounts of memory at the=
debugger. Better to run at the preferred size or increase it a meg or two.=
Same is true for the Symantec Project Manager. With the latest version=
of the SPM and debugger from the R4 update CD, I'm not having this problem=
or hearing it from other customers. Of course, not everyone is building=
projects with 250 source files. If that's overstressing the debugger, we=
need to know about it and get it fixed.
Please direct all technical support questions to support@devtools.symantec.c=
om. Use bugs@devtools.symantec.com to report potential bugs. Expect a=
reply, if not an answer, in 24 hours on business days. Sometimes the tough=
problems take a while to research.
And yes, we do look at this list and most comp.sys.mac.programmer=
newsgroups. We are increasing our efforts with online support. Given the=
nature of developer questions, email is often a better vehicle for support=
questions than the phone. It's hard to see source code on the phone. :-) =
As email traffic increases, our staffing for email support will increase. =
I also suggest continued posting to this list and to newsgroups. IMHO, as=
talented as our staff is, we haven't seen everything or solved every=
problem. Sometimes the collective wisdom of the 'net can provide the=
solution you need from their firsthand experience in a very short time.

Verify the "Enable Symbolic Debugging" checkbox in your PowerPC C/C++
options dialog. You need to check this to generate symbolic variable
information. (Page 97 in Symantec C++ Compiler Guide)

I realise I started teh current questioning of the debugger. Acting
on advice from Symantec I changed to use the debugger in the "next
release" part of the CD and magically it all started working
(including teh program I was attempting to debug!) That could
indicate some volatility, but I was pleased and not a little impressed
with the assistance I got from Symantec. I just though I would say
that in case I need them again!

Something else you may want to try is to remove the Symantec Debugger
Prefs from your Preferences folder and throw them away. If that doesn't
help then when you select "Run with debugger" from the Project menu hold
down the option key after making the menu selection. What that will do is
prevent the loading of any breakpoints and expressions which, in some cases,
can cause the debugger to crash.

The most common cause of this error is the "Enable Symbolic Debugging"
option in the PowerPC C or C++ compiler options (on the Debugging page).
If you happen to turn this option Off, you lose the ability to enter
expressions, although you'll still get variables in the stack crawl.
Unfortunately this generates an "out of memory" error instead of a more
helpful message. Turning the option On and recompiling fixes the problem.
The next SC++ release will fix this problem, and also adds a "just in
time" debugging feature that defers generating debug information until
it's required.
In some cases the current debugger will report and "out of memory" error
when the SPM is out of memory, or if there isn't enough temporary memory
free. The next release also has fixes for these problems as well that
enable the SPM to make more efficient use of memory.

I just want to comment that projects with 250 source files are not at all
uncommon in my work. I would guess that there are plenty of developers out
there using that many files and more.
In my case, this often happens because I do a lot of porting from DOS,
Windows, and Unix environments. Think about adding together TCL and a
significant body of code that has accumulated over time under, say Unix,
and you will realize how many files can be involved in even a relatively
simple port.

I thought I sent out this response last week.
This problem went away for me when I removed the size resource from my
resource file and I let the project manager build it's own when
compiling and linking. I think it was related to one of the
backgrounding bits. I can't remember exactly.

You must not swear in the church but a god way to get straight answers
would be to go to the church and ask why you should believe in god.
Now folks, why use Symantec C++ and TCL? What about Codewarriorr?
Another question: Learning C++ is simple when comparing learning a
class-library. Are there other class-librarys out there? Have I any chance
to understand them when knowing TCL?
Or for that sake: Symantec C++ for Windoze. There must be a class-library
for PC but all my toolbox-calls? (Do not come and say that there is no
meaning to port Mac programs to the PC because the rumors say that the PC
will die...)

Subject: More Debugger questions...
About every 3 to 4 weeks when I use Think C 7.06 after compiling and
linking my program, I run it in debugger mode only to get a "ZRef -
internal Error please remove objects".But after removing
objects,compiling,linking and running I get the same message.In fact
the only way to get it running again is to delete the old project
file make a new project file and add all the old source to it,after
which there is no debugger,run-time errror. Lastly there are some
times when my program starts acting "weird".On closer insp ection of
the debugger data values are not what they should be although I could
not find any error in my program(and previous versions had run OK) so
I just rem ove the MacTraps file and reload it and Voila! no
problems. Now although I was glad to find a workaround to these
problems I am nervous when I do not know if the final version of my
program is not 100 percent (well at least 99% (-: ) stable. For
example I am slightly nervous that my removing and adding of MacTraps
is a solution only because it is causing my program to acess
different addreses in memory. So since we have a Symantec guru
watching over us (or anybody else with some insight or similiar
problems) I would be grateful for any advice.

From: "Mark D. Nagel" <nagel@rdatasys.com>
I am in the midst of moving to a new job and am left pondering the
future of the THINK C mailing list. No matter what happens, the home
of the list will be changing. My question is: to where? I can take
the list with me again and set up forwarding, etc., but I find that I
have less interest in the list than in the past since I have largely
switched to Metrowerks for software development. This lack of
interest is reflected in the list and archives, and I'm sure many
would prefer a more involved list manager.
My goal for this message is to determine whether there is anyone out
there willing to take over the list and archives. There are currently
about 500 addresses on the list and about 40M of files in the archive.
Peak activity (in the past) has never been more than 20-30 messages
per day and lately is more like 10-20 messages per week. There are a
good many things that should be done with the list, such as creating a
WWW home page with access to archived files and messages, an actually
useful FAQ list, etc. If there is anyone out there interested and
willing to assume control, please let me know. I will do everything I
can to make sure the transition is as pain-free as possible. The list
currently operates under listproc 6.0c, but switching to majordomo or
some other list management package should not be too difficult. If no
one volunteers, I will probably take the list with me, but my
involvement will not increase and the list will most likely continue
to languish.
