- I have a few questions I haven't seen asked about SAS/C version 6.
-
- Does lmk still change all file names to lower case? [This was actually
- something fairly recent, like 5.10b but not 5.10a.]
-
-
- Does the builtin memcmp() work in all cases? It generally creates code
- like this:
-
- bra.s $2
- $1: cmp.b (A0)+,(A1)+
- $2: dbeq D0,$1
-
- The problem that could occur is that the Zero condition flag could be
- true before the branch instruction. This would cause memcmp() to
- report that the two regions of memory as being equal regardless of
- reality.
-
-
- Does cpr support debugging multiple tasks more reliably? [I've worked
- around the problems by detaching all but one task.]
-
-
- Has the compiler/cpr bug with being unable to recognize some symbols
- within some static functions been fixed?
-
-
- On large executables, cpr could complain about invalid debugging
- information. Has this been fixed?
-
-
- Do the cpr watch commands support the same sorts of display controls
- as the dump commands?
-
-
- Does cpr remember the size and placement of the informational windows
- when you close and reopen them?
-
-
- I've already sent in my order for the update, so these questions are
- mostly for curiosity. Thanks.
