I'm upgrading a large program written in plain C under BC5 to BCB4. Now in
ran into a problem using the isspace macro from ctype.h (and probably all
is... macro's from ctype.h). The isspace macro uses a table named 'chartype'
to check if a character is a space. However this macro fails when I use it
from a .c file, but works fine when I use it from a .cpp file! My work
around is to #undef the macro. Any ideas?

Olaf.
