The code makes the explicit assumption that enums are represented as int32_t in the definition of (en|de)code_enum. This isn't guaranteed to be true, but has worked on everything so far. The following is more clumsy but would support bizarre C compilers that use something other than int types for enums, through the standard conversion to int: #define encode_enum(pptr,x) do { \ int32_t xi = *x; \ encode_int32_t(pptr, &xi); \ } I'd rather stick with what we have until it breaks, myself. It will be obvious when that happens. -- Pete _______________________________________________ PVFS2-developers mailing list PVFS2-developers@beowulf-underground.org http://www.beowulf-underground.org/mailman/listinfo/pvfs2-developers
