I have the latest release, and I don't think it's "quite good." In fact, the reason the latest release made me finally give up on TDI is that it shows they still have all their old bad habits. If I believed they'd reformed, I could put up with the problems; but as it is, I see nothing but similar problems, repeated indefinitely. That, I can't put up with.

Pardon me for busting into this thread, Chip, but which TDI release do you have? I just got 3.01A and it's got some WEIRD problems (like, the 3.00A compiler reports 'illegal character' while the 3.01A compiler reports 'procedure implemented differently from definition' and then goes on to stomp the low memory vector table (uh, if that last part is wrong it's 'cause I'm just relaying what GOMF2 told me!) #>Mark<#

Mark, I believe I have the same release as you, how3ever this is the second release I have received labeled 3.01A, so I can't be sure. I have had a problem with "PROCEDURE IMPLEMENTATION DIFFERENT FROM DEFINITION", but only so far with regards to trying to pass an opeque type (hideen) by value. When I passed it as a VAR parameter, it worked OK, and the compiler has never gurued on me. Report these problems to Mike Valentine, and he will probably send you a new release as soon as they are fixed. Chip Orange

Thanx, I'll do that on Monday. I suspect my problem is exactly the same, as the 'offending' code passes a hidden type by value…or tries to! Now if only I can figure out why it gurus… #>Mark<#

Mark, Why don't you try it it without GOMF (since I don't have GOMF running) just to see. Chip Orange
