1629.0. "dcirc2 broken in PHIGS 5.0 for D-UNIX ?" by GYPOS3::EIBL (Reinhard Eibl @FKR, DTN 865-4027) Tue Feb 25 1997 11:13

Hello all,

a customer claimed me that the FORTRAN binding function dcirc2 is not
in the PHIGS library. The linker gives the usual error for that case:

	ld:
	Unresolved:
	dcirc2_
	fort: Severe: Failed while trying to link.

Could reproduce it with the small program below. PHIGS is 5.0 and operating
system is Dgitial UNIX 4.0a.

Have i forgotten something (the release notes say nothing about it)
or is it a case for escalation ?

Thanks for help in advance.

The PHIGS fortran binding states that this function is not supported
in PHIGS V3.0.  While the documentation hasn't been revised since then, 
neither has the function been implemented.

This was going to be just a short hand version of the DCIRC (3D) function
so that function can easily be used instead.
