we havent been able to test it out under AIX (i dont have access to an
AIX machine with the remedy libraries). if you are relatively familiar
with C code, i would suggest running the ARS.c file thru the C preprocessor
and see exactly what the line it is trying to compile looks like...
look for suspicious or non-standard type declarations that might not
have been included correctly. does AIX support the void type? i've never
used AIX before.. (i'm assuming you are building it under AIX because your
mailer said it was on AIX)
