Hi,
It would be great if someone would kindly tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Something like the much simplified code below used to work under
Tiger in 10.4 running on antique 400 MHz G4.
The idea is that the program passes the id of an
anonTargetClassObject to a calling object which then sends a message
to that anonTargetClassObject id.
What seems to be happening is that I am not getting the compiler to
generate the correct type information for the float and unsigned char
message parameter.
The code is implemented in Leopard running on a mac Pro.
In the build info I have
Instruction scheduling = PowerPC G5 - I've tried several of the
options without success
Objective-C Garbage Collection = Required
Optimisation Level = Fastest, smallest
C language dialect = Compiler Default
Compile Sources as = Objective-C
Everything else is set to the default.
I'm sure I'm giving you more code than you need but here goes ....
=======================
