Has anyone successfully used the arp functions within their own C source code? I'm using aztec c and get the message "Needs Aztec Glue" with trying to link to the arp library.

You need to do a link line like ln file.o arp.o c.lib m.lib etc., of course, you may not need m.lib, it is there only for illustration. If you are opening arp in your own programs, with OpenLibrary(), then you need to do ln file.o a.o c.lib m.lib etc. Note that you need both the arp interface and your compiler libraries, (or you will for most applications). Good luck, sdb

I've tried to use arp with both Lattice 4 and Manx 3.6. I have been successful with Lattice – It works the way the documentation says. Manx seems to have a problem. Version 3.6 doesn't seem to recognize a.lib or arp.lib as a library. Using the LB command, the header is messed up. So, now I'm trying to re-assemble, re-compile and re-make a.lib and arp.lib. A new problem, now. I've re-made the lib, and when I try running the test program (Filerequest), it gurus. Interesting thing, though. When using SDB, it gurus when attempting to load the program, even before execution begins. Using DB, it loads fine, and I can step through it. Have you had any success using ARP with Aztec 3.6? Anybody?? Jeffrey Cohen
