So there's is that little problem, that there only could be two combinations: 4 analog IO/0 digital 3 analog IO/1 digital, which should IMHO be taken under attack in the future. I am reading LDD3 at the moment and wondered how the best use of the 2.6 dev_t, which doesn't limit the minors to 255, the starting point for my problem. Is there a solution insight, which doesn't break compatibility with older apps? Greets, Henne ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
