When I use PvWave's call_vms to invoke a C program I often get: %SYSTEM-F-ASTFLT, AST fault, SP=001149D9, param=03C00000, PC=00000000, PSL=00000000, target PC=00000000, PSL=00000000 % CALL_VMS: Error in called routine. % Execution halted at ESMP <DCS:[ACONRAD.ESMP.PRO]ESMP.PRO;49( 15)> (CALL_VMS). % Called from $MAIN$ . It seems to occur after the program has executed for aproximately 100 seconds. The program can be as simple as an infinite loop. Does call_vms set up some sort of watchdog timer? If so, is there a mechanism for disabling it? Thank you very much in advance, Al Conrad aconrad@keck.hawaii.edu
