Dear All,
I am trying to compile a number of applications linking pvwave
objects/shared objects with objects from other products.
The difficulty I am encountering is that the PVWave objects are in o32
format while the objects from the other products are all in n32 format. It
is impossible to combine these incompatible formats, and the only sensible
way round would be if I could obtain PVWave n32 objects.
The last thing I heard was that VNI had no intention of releasing PVWave
objects in n32 format. Does anybody know if this is still the case? Are
n32 objects available under the recently released version 7.0 of PVWave?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Rose,
Thanks for your response.
Unfortunately compiling with the -o32 flag won't work as this will fail to
link in n32 objects from IRIS Explorer.
However, I recently discovered that PV-Wave v7.0 is compiled with n32 - so
my problem should be solved :-)
I don't know if this is of interest to you, but I understand that IDL 5.2.1
is built on n32 for IRIX (whereas 5.2 is o32), so perhaps this will help
with you applications.

Hi Adrian,
Glad to hear about PVWAVE's upgrade. Thanks for the warning about
IDL.
