I noticed the source invocation offset behaves differently between _MATINVAT2 and matinvat(). With _MATINVAT2, the source invocation offset value '0' denotes the invocation executing _MATINVAT2, value -1 denotes its caller, value -2 denotes its caller's caller, etc. For example the following gets the program pointer of the caller, so the source invocation offset is -1. #include <mimchobs.h> #include <string.h> void test(void) { _INV_Template_T I; _Select_Templatge_T S; char *P; memset(&I, 0 ,sizeof(I)); memset(&S, 0 ,sizeof(S)); I.Inv_Offset = -1; /*caller*/ S.Numb_Attrs = 1; S.Entry[0].Attr_ID = _MATV_PGM_PTR; S.Entry[0].Rcvr_Len = sizeof(P); _MATINVAT2((_SPCPTR) &P, &I, &S); return; } But with matinvat(), the source invocation offset value -1 denotes the invocation executing matinvat(), value -2 denotes its caller, value -3 denotes its caller's caller, etc. So to acheive the same result above with matinvat(), I have to decrement the offset from -1 to -2! Is this working as designed, or an off by one bug? #include <mimchobs.h> #include <string.h> void test(void) { _INV_Template_T I; char *P; memset(&I, 0, sizeof(I)); I.Inv_Offset = -2; /*caller*/ matinvat((_SPCPTR) &P, &I, _MATV_PGM_TR, sizeof(P)); return; }
