823.0. "ADD_INTERLOCKED problem in V5.4, patch?" by HGOSPS::MICKWIDLAM () Mon Jan 27 1997 01:13

    A customer with DEC Pascal V5.4 got the INTOVF problem with
    ADD_INTERLOCKED. We decided to give them V5.5 for fixing (we have
    another customer tried) but the customer want to stay in V5.4. Is there
    any patch for V5.4 Pascal fixing this problem? They are with OpenVMS
    V6.2.
    
    Thanks and regards,
    Mickwid.

	You didn't say which platform you are on, but in general we don't PATCH compilers for single fixes. As we fix problems, we put them into our code stream. When a problem is reported, we provide the current compiler to the customer. Note for Alpha platforms, there is no PATCH utility at all. What are the customer's reasons for staying with V5.4? -John
