Here are a few notes to users of The Window BOSS who are using 
version 6.0 of Microsoft C.  Please note that these anomalies 
will be eliminated in the next release of The Window BOSS.
THESE ARE NOT BUGS. This information is simply being passed 
along as a courtesy.
        
1. The Microsoft 5.X libraries of Version 02.15.90 of The Window 
   BOSS are compatible with version 6.0 of Microsoft C.
   Therefore, whenever the manual refers to Microsoft 5.X you 
   can read it as though it was referring to version 6.0.
        
2. When using version 02.15.90 and previous of The Window BOSS 
   with Microsoft 6.0 it is common to get warnings when compiling
   wn_gfloat and/or other functions where floats get promoted
   to doubles when passed as parameters to functions.  In the 
   case of wn_gfloat, the warning can be safely ignored provided 
   that the parameter in question is either a float or double.
   The error message looks like:
        
   name.c ## : warning C4028 Parameter ## declaration is different
        
   In the case of wn_gfloat, parameter 13 and 14 will cause the 
   warning.
        
3. In Microsoft 6.0 the definition of NULL has been changed to
   "((void) *)0)". This new definition will sometimes produce 
   warning messages when compiling source modules of The Window
   BOSS and/or in programs that include "windows.h". 
   The warning message is of the form:
        
   name.c ## : warning C4047 'return' : different levels indirection
        
   Although these warnings can be safely ignored, you can eliminate 
   the warning messages by editing "windows.h" and adding the 
   following code:
        
        #undef NULL
        #define NULL (int) 0
        
   The above code should be inserted following the lines:
        
        #if MSCV4
        #define MSC     1
        
4. Linking is different....
        
        link hello,,,swin               (5.X)
        link hello,,,swin;              (6.X)  note ";"
        
5. Programmer workbench fans should define "MSCV4=1" in the 
   "defines" dialog box.  Do this by selecting "OPTIONS", then 
   "C COMPILER OPTIONS".  
        
We will continue to directly support version 5.X through 1990
(provide pre-configured libraries).  In 1991, un-official support 
for 5.X will only be available to registered (licensed source code
users).
        
Thanks for your continued support.
