The Transactor, May 1987, Volume 7, Issue 6
There are two changes from the original listings for Lattice C.
One relates to the size of an integer in the defines. The size of an
integer in Aztec is sixteen bits, however, Lattice uses thirty-two.
I changed the define to SHORT. The other change is in one of the
structure definitions where a BYTESIZE definition needed to be
padded to sixteen bits by calling it INTSIZE for proper alignment
purposes. These are all the changes I can remember I had to do.
I also have added a few additional structure definitions and will
be adding more as I find spare time.
One thing to remember when traversing linked structures... the
Amiga is constantly in action and what may have been a valid pointer
when it was displayed but may be pointing to garbage by the time you
actually look at the data it was pointing to.
Anybody interested in looking at the nitty-gritties of the system
should find this program interesting and possibly even enlightening.
Please buy a copy of the magazine to help support the publishing of
additional excellent programs like this one. There are also two
other Amiga articles in the same issue. The first gives some insight
into the infamous GURU messages and the other describes Amiga file
structures.
