The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Thanks. I'll give it a try.

the ported software uses alloca() at some locations. Obviously
alloca() is not support on IBM i. What is the alternative? malloc?
What do I have to take into account when changing this to malloc?
(besides freeing the memory afterwards)
Thanx in advance
Mihael Schmidt
#include <mih/modasa.h> and then use _MODASA or modasa (both defined in the
header file). They work essentially the same as alloca. In fact, you
could a #define somewhere so that you wouldn't have to change your code
much other than the include and define.
