    Default Determining LONG compiler

    In the 2.6x versions of the compiler, you set a switch to choose PBP or PBPL.

    If there were no LONGS in your pogram, you could still compile with PBPL, and it didn't tell you.

    I think I remember someone telling me that I could put an ASM block - something like

    ASM

    ifdef PBPL_USED
    LIST
    ....
    NOLIST
    endif

    ENDASM

    But I can't remember the details. Could someone please refresh my (failing) memory on how to detect if the PBPL compiler has been used, or block it from compiling at all if I try to use PBPL?

    PBP 2.50/2.60/PBP3
    Code:
    ASM
        if ((R1-R0) == 4)
            error "Compiled with PBPL"
        endif
    ENDASM
    PBP3 only (faster)
    Code:
    #IF __LONG__ = 1
        #ERROR "Compiled with PBPL"
    #ENDIF
    The second one is faster because PBP picks up the error.
    The first one has to go through the assembly process before you get the error.

    So my next question is --

    Is there some trick that I can use that will automatically invoke PBP if no LONGs are declared, and invoke PBPL if they are?
