According to Andreas Eckleder:

...i've got some problem with the library file of the actual (?!?) alphaversion of gnu-pascal...

(* Du meinst: "current" version? ;*) Obviously not - see below.

[...]

the other problem i realized with this alpha-version is that i couldn't manage to use the inline assembler. i only only got a message telling me function asm() not beeing existent.

This was a but in some old alpha versions of GPC which is fixed now. The current version is gpc-970420 (see my signature).

BTW, the GPI file format changes with (almost) each version, so please recompile your units after upgrading.

because of this strong behavior i use the gpc2.0 compiler with the alpha- libraries...perhaps THIS is the reason why the function above doesn't work, but i am not quite sure about that...

(* That's what alpha versions are for: To find all bugs before releasing it to the public. :*)

Please try again with gpc-970420 - or with gpc-9705?? ... perhaps this weekend ...
