<br><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font>
<br><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">Does anybody have experience with
or can anyone out there give me some idea as to what kind of parameters
/ combination of same I need to do a buildexternal correctly in OpenVMS?
To construct a SHAREAble subroutine from Quick?</font>
<br><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><br>
I have successfully created, compiled, BUILDEXTERNAL /NOSHARE and executed
a Quick screen calling a C subroutine. Whopee! Haven't done that in a dog's
age. C is 10 years ago....<br>
<br>
However, (HOWEVER), when I attempt to build a /SHARE-able copy of the <br>
subroutine (for performance - no spawn) using buildexternal and its myriad
<br>
of combinations, permutations and etrc. parameters per the Qdesign manual,
<br>
it patently doesn't work. <br>
<br>
The PHEXE works like the proverbial charm, but the .EXE does not. Quick
just skips over the "do external" statement (put debug into the
C routine - and it's not called)...I have <br>
tried 25 different ways from Sunday but the resulting .EXE just seems to
<br>
be ignored by the Quick program and merrily (demonstrably) does the square
<br>
root of zero in the "do external" construct.<br>
<br>
Anybody have ideas?</font>
