Hi Ron,

Yes, that is not supported by MSVC. I try to compile a dummy file with
the following contents:

wang_x1@pc7149 /c/test
$ cat test.c
#if #cpu(i386)
    #error CPU i386 asserted
#endif

wang_x1@pc7149 /c/test
$ cl test.c
Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 14.00.50727.762
for 80x86
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

test.c
test.c(1) : error C2014: preprocessor command must start as first
nonwhite space
test.c(1) : fatal error C1017: invalid integer constant expression

Probably removing completely is not necessary. It does not harm if it is
put after checking _WIN32,
because MSVC will not contiue further. This was the case in motor 6-3
release.
#if defined(_WIN32) || defined (_M_IX86) || defined (_X86_)
    #define LSB_First (TRUE)  /* LSB is packed first. */ 
#elif #cpu(i386)
    #define LSB_First (TRUE)  /* LSB is packed first. */ It seems MSVC 

Best,
Xiaoqiang

Hello Wang,

I am guessing that it is the preprocessor assertions (e.g., #cpu(i386))
that are not supported by MSVC.

I suggest you test this by removing them from the file (motor.h) and
recompiling.  The preprocessor variables MSB_First and LSB_First may not
be correct, but at least we will know what exactly is not supported.
