 Hi.
 I have a problem that has been driving me mad for the past 5 hours.

 I am trying to read data from serial.device, one character at a time. (i.e. in real time), but the 512 byte buffer prevents me from doing it.

 So, I am wondering if there is a way to stop the serial.device from waiting
until the buffer is full, and hand over the characters as they come instead.

 HELP, anybody?!

Thanx.

It is:-

Mismatched FreeMem size 15!
Original allocation: 20 bytes from A:0xFEBFD4 C:0xFD8468 Task 0x30118
Testing with original size.

The programme then crashes with an illegal address violation.

Note that the mungwall hit occurs during freeing of system resources
only if the custom gadget has been selected. If the custom gadget
wasn't activated by the user only the illegal address violation
occurs.

Thanks for taking a look at this.

Where does one get generaly patches for SAS/C? I hope that it doesn't work
on the principle - you have a problem, you ring SAS, they send you a fix.

I am hoping that there are/will be binary patches available on FTP sites
to fix up problems.

Alternatively SAS should send them out every couple of months, if they do
not think that making them available for FTP is a good idea.

	It might be something you're doing, but I can tell you what you
can *probably* do.  Take a look at the #pragma for AllocMem() and
FreeMem().  Make sure you're using these inline things.  Then make a
copy of the include files and change the Pragmas to read
ExecAllocMem() and ExecFreeMem().  If I'm right, the Lattice startup
(and all of your code) should call AllocMem --- your function, which
can still call ExecAllocMem()... and so on.  This would ensure you
wrap ALL calls.  An alternative to this would be to SetFunction()
AllocMem(), or to use Enforcer/Mungwall.

Dave.

Hi all.
Does anybody out there know how to cause a GadTools Listview gadget
entry appear in a different colour? Normally, entries appear in black,
but I'd like some to appear in while (or another colour).
The list gadget in ReqTools and Magic File Requester look like GadTools
listviews, and they have different coloured entries. I'd like the same.

Is is possible with GadTools? Or must I do it differently?
ANY replies would be appreciated.

    A couple of questions, to pass the time of day... :)

    1.  Is TypeOfMem() a KS2.0-only function, or did it exist in
        KS1.2?

    2.  Does anyone know of a PD version of BltBitMap() that uses the
        CPU instead of the Blitter? I need to handle all the shifting
        etc (but don't care about the masking/plane selection), and it
        would be nice not to have to write such a routine myself...

Unfortunately, we didn't have time to get the font-sensitive code into
CPR, but at least it now properly forces Topaz-8 itself, so you don't
have to mess with changing your fonts just to run it.

We created a patch for the 5.10b version of CPR to do this as well,
though with the work being done on V6, we never got a chance to do a
proper test/distribution.

Subject: FreeGadgets() causes Enforcer hit??
From: jwwalden@miavx1.acs.muohio.edu (P'relan)
Date: 1 Sep 92 17:52:38 -0500
Organization: Dept. of Physics

I have a bit of a problem with some code I'm working on, and hope someone on
the net could help.  It seems that either I'm doing something wrong, or that
asl.library's FreeGadgets() function is causing an Enforcer hit.  Here is the
function in question:

void FreeWindow(struct Window *wind) {

struct Menu *men;
struct Gadget *glist;

men = wind->MenuStrip;
glist = wind->FirstGadget;

if (men) {
        ClearMenuStrip(wind);
        FreeMenus(men);
        }
CloseWindow(wind);
if (glist) FreeGadgets(glist);   <----- This line causes hit.
}


As you can see, this function is simply meant to close a window and free all
associated GadTools resources.  However, when it is executed the FreeGadgets()
line causes two enforcer hits.  Note that I'm running MungWall, Enforcer, and
Sushi.  Sushi output as follows:

Program Counter (approximate)=  FB87F4		Fault address       =DEADBEEF

It looks like the program is using freed memory, since DEADBEEF is the value
MungWall fills freed memory with, but I have no idea why.  Am I doing something
wrong?  Is there a bug in FreeGadgets()?  All help appreciated.

Thanks.

After calling DateStamp, you need to call DateToStr

In asm, d1 = DateSTamp structure
CALL DateStamp

d1 = DateStamp structure
CALL DateToStr

it works for me

Could you post (alt.amiga.sources maybe) or mail me the source you
used, so I can try it with Aztec 5.2b?  I sorta bet I'll get numbers
about like what 5.10 got ...

Doesn't compilation take a LOT longer when all the optimization is used?  That
was one thing that Aztec always had, was compiling speed ...

Aztec 6.0 is a *long* way off.  They aren't even working on any Amiga products
these days -- they don't have enough people.  And when they do go back to the
Amiga stuff, the first thing they need to do is a major upgrade of their source
level debugger.

But they say the 6.0 compiler will have cool optimizations like register
tracking, full '040 support, and an intuitionized control interface.

Under 2.x, it's CreateNewProcTags(NP_Entry, yourfunction, ...);
 
Under 1.x you have to create a fake SegList that points to your code
and pass that to CreateProc.

I'm very interested by having a Shell which can record all window output so
that you can scroll up to see what has gone past the top of the window, like
many shells on Unix and X-Windows. I know that there WShell 2.0 implements
this feature, and some PD programs.

I would like to have some guidelines to write my own console-handler to
implement this. Can someone give me some PD programs with sources or anything
else ? (I use C and assembler)

Thanx, Olivier.

Yes I had the same problem, the 2.0 includes I got with 5.0d or something
are not the latest. I'm not sure if they are available on the aztec bbs.
If not you can get them from commodore for $20 I believe.

Another point is that the functions you mentioned are not in aztecs c.lib so
you have to link with amiga.lib from commodore. Again I don't know if a newer
version with the functions is available.

The number for the support bbs is ++1 908-5422793.

BTW if you find some interresting news there send me mail please, calling
their bbs from The Netherlands is quiet expensive.

C'ya,
