Excluding Floating Point Libraries While Using Printf

Yes - that's why you can do this in the Free Eval:

   printf( "Hello, world %d", 10 );

But not this:

   printf( "Hello, world %f", 10 );

Anyhow, the Map file shoul show where any FP is getting used...?

well. the choice wont be made like that. the thing that links the fp to printf is likely a float parameter.

else the code

printf( "Hello, world %f", 10 );

could be circumfented by sumthing like

.
.
char buf[64];
char *dummy;

strcpy(buf,"Hello, world %f");

dofrig(buf);
.
.

void dofrig ( const char * dummy )
{
  printf( dummy, 10 );
}

point is compiler puts necesary info into obj for linker to make intelagint decision. the librery function knows squat didley.

Always yo're freind.
