- Hello! About a month ago I posted a problem concerning the absence
- of the rand() and srand() functions in the PDC package. Somebody (very
- helpfully) directed me towards the gcc libraries, which are much more complete,
- and told me to use those with PDC instead.
- Problem is the PDC linker won't recognize the ggc libs as "object
- modules" (ah, my blatant ignorance of compiler mechanisms shines through once
- again). I know I replaced the proper files, and renamed them, etc. The
- impression I get is that pdc libs are another "flavor" (?) than gcc libs, but
- intuition tells me this is not the case.
- I'm using ccx, the pdc front end; I wouldn't know how to begin
- otherwise.
-
- Help?

- ps, I know common sense dictates me to use the gcc compiler, but memory/disk
- space limitations force me not to for the time being.
