Hi. I'm getting an undefined error when my code uses COMPLEX,
LONGCOMPLEX or CMPLX, using the version of ADW released Aug 2014. I
think they called this version 1.6.281 free?

These work fine w/ Stony Brook, which I still have.

Is there anything I have to do to enable these types?

Thx

From the doc\readme.txt file:

"The COMPLEX data types have been eliminated. Nobody cares about this and it is simpler to not support across our various processors. Most complications arise due to parameter passing requirements."

Note they also changed the behaviour of DIV and MOD in the same Build (55, Febuary (sic) 23 2007)

I wish they had also changed the help file that come up when you click
HELP. That file still says Stony Brook Software.

I didn't think of also looking for a readme file.

Thanks for answering,
