The Mixed
Mode Manager handles the overhead required (such as parameter and stack
manipulation) to allow PowerPC code to call classic 68K code and vice versa.
Although Mac OS X will not run 68K code, Carbon will support universal procedure
pointers (UPPs) transparently, so you do not have to change them or remove
them from your code. You may want to keep Mixed Mode Manager calls in your
application to maintain compatibility with the current version of the Mac
OS. Mixed Mode Manager calls from Carbon applications running on Mac OS
8 or 9 will function normally. |
