- Sub: Re: CPlusMacApp.h FISaveRegs S
-
- David, MacAppers:
-
- I'm sorry for the delay in answering your link about CPlusMacApp; I just got
- back from vacation today. You correctly stated that the inline assembly
- language function FISaveRegs declared in CPlusMacApp.h should really be
- declared as a protected member of the TSavedContext class. Unfortunately, the
- MPW C compiler does not allow inline assembly language functions to be declared
- that way; they can only be declared at file scope. The previous version of
- CPlusMacApp had a comment describing this; I removed it because I thought that
- it was a detail few people would be concerned about. I should have known
- better. As for the InstallResult enum, it was placed at file scope so that you
- could write "if (handler.Install() == kProceed)", instead of the more verbose
- and not as meaningful "if (handler.Install() == TSavedContext::kProceed)".

- P.S. I have received two mail messages from people that had difficulty
- downloading CPlusMacApp; one of those people said that he was using AppleLink
- 6.0. I posted CPlusMacApp with AppleLink 5.0, as I wasn't sure if the
- AppleLink/America Online gateway knew how to handle AppleLink 6.0 yet. If you
- have had trouble downloading CPlusMacApp, try again using AppleLink 5.0. If
- that doesn't work, send me email. If I get enough responses I will repost the
- package to MacApp.Tech$. I also will try to get the package put on the Apple
- Internet FTP site, for Internet users.
