> Does your paragraph reduce to "I want the compiler to be 'smarter' " ? I don't think that's what he meant. I think he was talking about being able to tell the compiler to evaluate certain expressions at compile time, not requiring it to figure it out for itself as some kind of intelligent optimization. Like when you want to be able to configure a uart for different clock speeds by changing a single constant at the beginning and have your assembler or compiler calculate the necessary settings. -- Peace, William Kitchen The future is ours to create.
