Sample Interface

You must use the compiler option -lpcwhen you use CC to link a C++ main routine that calls Pascal. -lpcdenotes linking with the Pascal runtime support library libpc. On the Solaris 1.x environment, if you use pc to link, you must add the -lcoption.

The -calignoption causes pc to use data formats for aggregate objects similar to those in C++.
