Do you know that every modern compiler (actually, processor) expand every integer function parameter to a full machine word? I.e. short in parameters is just a syntax sugar, they are pushed into stack as integers. You can replace all short parameters in old API with int and still have backward compatible ABI. -- WBR, SD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want fast and easy access to all the code in your enterprise?
