Often 64-bit-only issues come down to one or more of the following: * implicit function declarations. Per the C standard, argument types are assumed to match whatever is given (which may be wrong if e.g. 0 is used instead of 0L or (PointerType)0 or NULL etc.) and the return type is assumed to be int (which will truncate the actual return value when it is actually a long/pointer). * vararg types. Because these types aren't declared, the compiler can't automatically cast values to the correct type, so literal values and symbolic constants must be explicitly cast if they are not meant to be an int and are not obviously a long/pointer. In the case of ncview, I strongly suspect the latter should anyone be interested in fixing this. -- Yaakov -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
