is there a procedure in SKILL to determine the bit of invoki

[bohu.seattle@gmail.com]

hi there,
is there a procedure in SKILL , when called in icfb or icde , can
determine whether the icde/icfb is
32bit or 64bit?

thanks

if( system( strcat( "grep '^\\\\o Sub version:.*64-bit addresses' "
hiGetLogFileName() " > /dev/null")) == 0
then println( "64-bit addresses" )
else println( "32-bit addresses" )
)

It's sort-of roundabout, but it works.

You can also do some pattern matching on the results of getVersion() - a little
less indirect.

No, the return from getVersion doesn't include the the address size. That's
added by the HI code when it outputs the CDS.log header.

Hi Pete,

Actually it does (for 64 bit, anyway):

layout -64 -V

gives:

@(#)$CDS: layout.exe_64 version 5.1.0-64b 02/20/2007 00:24 (cicamd10) $

Of course, that's down to how the workbench is built, but it seems to be a
convention...

So something as simple as rexMatchp("64b" getVersion()) will tell you it is 64
bit.

Regards,

Andrew.
