Absolutely nothing. Re-validation would be required for a different target system. Which kind of testing on the extended Run Time Executive would one expect to support the assumption, that the system can also be considered validated for a different target? Again, re-validation would be required. I believe this is especially strict for run-time issues; that is, that there might be some room for maneuver for a different host using a compiler derived from the same code, for the same target, but different targets always require re-validation. -- -- ======================================================================== Mike Elliott mre@emerald.ccss.com mre@lpf.org ========================================================================
