Dear Pascal Peeps

I reported a bug (see below) a week ago about #include directives not working properly. A quick scan of the diffs for file gpc-cccp.c with the 19990118 gpc revealed 2 lines 5902,5093:

searchptr->fname = (char *) xmalloc (flen + 1); strncpy (searchptr->fname, fname, flen);

No idea what this is supposed to do, but commenting them out fixes the problem.

Hope this helps someone!

Dear All

I'm having problems with multiple #include "filename" lines with gpc-19990813 in a program that worked with gpc-19990118 (and others).

Example program is:

--------- solver.p ----------- program SOLVER(input,output);

#include "TurboP.def" #include "WinLib.def" #include "PlotLib.def" #include "MxFiler.def"

begin writeln("Hello!"); end.

---

% gpc -I./modules solver.p solver.p:5: WinLib.def: No such file or directory solver.p:6: PlotLib.def: No such file or directory solver.p:7: MxFiler.def: No such file or directory

% gpc -I./modules -I./modules -I./modules -I./modules solver.p % ./a.out Hello!

Actually gpc -v reports 19990610, by the way.

Thanks

Ian
