well, since my last adventure with header files went over so swimmingly, i might as well keep going. :-)
to my surprise, i learned only today that module.h includes moduleparam.h, which flies in the face of all of the documentation i've ever read which was adamant that i *had* to include moduleparam.h if i was using parameters. i'm guessing this comes as a surprise to the 400+ header files which include both unnecessarily. so ... in a perfect world, should a module source file that doesn't use parameters *at all* need to include moduleparam.h? as it stands now, yes, it does, given some ugly inter-dependencies between the two files. so, at the very least, programmers can stop including moduleparam.h, unless there's a cleaner way to do all that. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
