Theres a lot of talk about RISC OS Libraries at the moment and people writing their own etc. Has any one actually stated the problems with Desktop C RISC_OSLib object file? I mean which parts of the library are fast/slow, bugged/reliable, bloat/slim... The purpose of this article is to ask if any one has any information on this they could post? I got a feeling of paranonia when I used it 5 months ago. At that time, when my application failed and defied all logic I did not know which to question, my program or the library? Since then I have used as little of the library as possible, and program development has been long. On the good side though, the code produced has been small by comparison and faster. So, any one out there got any FACTS they wish to share? Does Acorn mind expanding on its use and reliability? ( These facts may have already been discused, if so please tell me where I could find the news and read it ) Thanks, Stephen Mansfield. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- e-mail: srm2@ukc.ac.uk University of Kent at Canterbury --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
