Problem:

I get a warning C4049 when I run the example on Page 489 of the C
Versions 5.00 and 5.10 "Run-Time Library Reference," in the section on
_remapallpalette and _remappalette.

Response:

There is an error in the example program. The following line:

_remapallpalette((char *)(&(colorsarray[0])));

should read as follows to avoid the warning message:

_remapallpalette((long far *)(&(colorsarray[0])));
