Re: Storing a long value in an int [correction]
Hi, I need to set this flag = 0x001 My code is as follows: $flag = OBJ::HALT(0x001); print(setting flag $flag\n); produces: 65536 But when I say $quote-SetFlag($flag); The flag is being set to 0; I see that the number I am trying to set is 65536. Is there a way I can make $flag a long int to store 65536 ? Thanks, Radhika -- It is all a matter of perspective. You choose your view by choosing where to stand.

SetFlag() could be doing anything with $flag. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/ http://learn.perl.org/first-response
Re: Storing a long value in an int [correction]
The problem was actually in our code - SetFlags(). SetFlags(unsigned short flags) which was causing the problem. I changed that to a long, and it works. Sorry for the rather un-informative description. I will try to ask better questions next time.
