>Also, Stuart mentioned he was compiling with +L. Doesn't that mean that >Manx will use longs for ints rather than shorts? And if so, doesn't THAT >mean that "sizeof(tplanet)" will be a long? So, the question is: what will >malloc() do when you pass it a long and it wants a short? Assuming you LINK with the proper library (c32.lib), malloc WANTS a long. > pplant = (tplanet *) malloc((short)sizeof(tplanet)); The compiler would promptly expand sizeof() backup to a long after chopping the high 16 bits and pass a long. (assuming you are compiling with +L) -Matt
