RE: Prototyping printf() -- RPG400-L

× 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 I am understanding properly what you are trying to do: there is no
way to force your externally described data structures to be aligned on a
16-byte boundary.

I believe that a DS is always 16 byte aligned, and even if not the use of
the ALIGN keyword would do the job for you.

>>> >It would be nice to be able to define a pointer data type externally

Well you can always use a User Space - pointers _are_ preserved there
although not when you save/restore.  Given what you are trying to do though
this might be a possibility.
