The main issue is long pointers and one of the routines I've provided will return that information. If you're not directly using intrinsics but plan on using either the MPE LIBC or the POSIX /lib/libc.a, then this is not an issue. If you are interested in calling intrinsics, then check the archives on hp3000-l for my earlier posts that showed an example of calling them and included the 'glue' required. Regards, M.
