Hi,
Running IDL 8.0.1 on Windows 7 64bit and XP 32 -
An Arrow function is a new feature added to idl 8.0.1. One, perhaps
unintended, consequence of this addition occurs in code using the older
arrow procedure call, which now compiles the new function support in
arrow.pro before redirecting the procedure call to arrow_internal.pro.
No problem here, unless a .sav file for idl vm is created with
resolve_all, causing many unneeded and large procedures to be linked and
adding 9Mb in size to what would otherwise be a few hundred Kb sav file.
One workaround is to just substitute the arrow_internal procedure call
which exists only in idl 8, is there a better way?
