Good News Everybody!

A new search engine is coming soon.

As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.




Thanks for the suggestions I've received so far. My research on the subject was interrupted by other projects, but I'm back on this.

An additional detail:
The whole issue revolves around a communication buffer that is passed as a parameter to the RPG module from a C module. (The C module is the calling module; the RPG module is the called module.) While there are a few fields at the beginning of the structure, everything from the 21st byte on is just structureless bytes, into which an arbitrary number of communication records, which can be of a dozen or more different formats (each with a different length) are placed to return to the C program. (Any given buffer-load will contain records of only one format, though.)

So it's not a matter of allocating the memory; that's already being done in the calling program. The issue is accessing it. Somebody mentioned pointers; can anybody point me to some information on how that's done from RPG?
