Howdy All,

I was recompiling my CPLAT sources (from Ken Stahlman) under CWP6 and
encountered several places in the code where I am now receiving this
error. (Don't worry about what a CP_Region is...suffice it to say its a
valid thing)s:

    Error: illegal implicit conversion from 'CP_Region' to 'CP_Region &'

Here is the snippet of code that causes the error:

    OnDraw( CP_Region(fPlatformWindow->visRgn) );

Now, if I change the code to read like this:

    CP_Region cpr(fPlatformWindow->visRgn);
    OnDraw( cpr);

Then it compiles fine.  I wonder why this is so???
