Alternative for New_Page@

25 Jan 2023 2:01 #29870

As mentioned in ClearWin manual (Appendix A.), NEW_PAGE@ is one of the routines that are useful in new programs. However, it has no ClearWin+ alternative and to use this routine for 64-bit, it is necessary to include DBOS library. Is there any plan to develope a ClearWin+ alternative for this routine and eventually make it accessible to third party compilers?

The internal name is __win_new_page and access could be provided via CLEARWIN.ins (or its module). It might need an alternative Fortran alias (other than NEW_PAGE@) for when DBOS.ins is used with CLEARWIN.ins (or its module). I just need to check what happens if NEW_PAGE@ is declared twice with the same interface.

NEW_PAGE@ has now been added to the relevant INCLUDE files and MODULES for the next release.
