If no function prototype is provided for SimVal in SimValMain.c , then
sr:shortreal must be changed to sr:real in SimVal.p . This change is
necessary because in C, a float is promoted to double in the absence of
function prototypes. In -xl mode, change sr:shortreal to sr:longreal .
Simple Types with –xl
With -xl , the Pascal real must be paired with a C float , and the Pascal
integer must be paired with a C short int .
The C main program,
SimValMain.c
#include
extern void SimVal(
char, char, char,
short,
int,
float,
double,
int *);
int main(void)
{
char t = 1, f = 0;
char c = 'z';
short si = 9;
int i = 9;
float sr = 9.9;
double r = 9.9;
int args;
SimVal(t, f, c, si, i, sr, r, &args);
printf(" args = %06o \n", args);
