Hi Francois,

You asked:

FT>/* test of findfirst / findnext under emx */

FT>#include

FT>int main(int argc, char **argv)

......^^^^^^ !!!

You've not allocated any space for the string! Why not drop "Search"
completely and use argv[1] directly?

FT>Done=DosFindFirst(Search,&FindHandle,F_A,FindBuf,sizeof(FILE
FT>INDBUF3),&FindC ount,FindLevel);
FT>   while(Done==0)
FT>   {
FT>     printf("file: %s\n",&FindBuf->achName);
FT>     Done=DosFindNext(FindHandle,FindBuf,sizeof(FILEFINDBUF3),&FindLevel);
FT>     }

FT>   return(0);

FT>This works as advertised when compiled to os/2 EXE with Emx.
FT>However
FT>1) I'm getting a warning
FT>"assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast" on
the malloc line
FT>why ? I've always done that under dos and my compiler never complained ?

Odd...

FT>2) when compiled to dual standart (ie dos/os/2 exe with rsx/emx.dll) it stil
FT>works under os/2 but bombs out with GP in a dos box.
FT>Related to previous ? what to do ?

The use of "String" may cause that one.
