  Re: Another possible makefile change
 
(...) great, Rossz, but i see one little problem here. I'm suspecting that it's no good idea to include Makefile.common in the Makefile for dll-src, because Makefile.common sets some standard Variables and rules to values appropriate for cross (...)

  Re: Another possible makefile change

  Re: malloc() bug found -- BAD MEMORY REGION :-(
 
(...) i vaguely remember this patch was necessary to get gcc-2.95.x to work, but somehow lost the patch. Therefore, i'm still working with egcs-1.1.2. Maybe that's the difference ? Could you tell me where to find the patch ? thanks, Martin. (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Alternative Programming Languages with LegOS
 
First, take a look at the following web pages, and decide for yourself if you like to program with this kind of "synchronous languages". For the programming language LUSTRE: (2 URLs) For the programming language Esterel: (URL) (...) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Another possible makefile change
