[xHarbour-developers] C compiler alignment

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

Dear friends,

can someone confirm that I have to use alignment 8? I ever used
alignment 4 but now I found that hb_pcount() returns 64 with alignment 4
(while it works fine with alignment 8).

Please let me know.

Enrico:

typing bcc32 -h

-axxx Set data alignment boundary. Default is -a8; -a- means -a1

This is with Borland 5.8 so alignment seems to default
to 8 anyway. Wonder if you're using an older version
of Borland in which you would have to specify -a8 to
ensure it uses 8 byte alignment.

Regards,

Yes, I already know that. I ever used -a4. So you are confirming that I
have to use -a8 (default) now?

Ok, thank you. I'm going to change my alignment immediately.
