- I watched with interest while the knowledgable amongst us discussed the
- topic of shared pointers and subtasks, coming to the conclusion that
- sharing for the Maths at least was A Bad Thing.
- Various panacea were put forward for SAS v6, particularly the use of an
- appropriate pragma. While this is quite clear for the subtask case, I
- am interested in moving onto a SubProcess that is not load-seg'd (ie
- inline with my main code), with the purpose of using DOS from it.
-
- For the most part this seems straight forward, by I wonder what happens
- if I do a printf( "%f...) - whose IEEE pointer gets used (the main
- program, I think) _and does it matter_ (I think so)?
