It used to be the case in many calling conventions that argument passing conventions for single-word structures differed from those used for scalar word values. In particular there were different rules for registerization, and this was especially true for return values.
Does anyone know of a current calling convention in which a single-word structure being passed by value is not implemented the same way as passing a single-word scalar? If not, then there is a very simple solution to the entire problem of C-compatible types, which will let us take typealias off the list. shap _______________________________________________ bitc-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.coyotos.org/mailman/listinfo/bitc-dev
