sudoku engine on propeller

Reinhard

Hi All
Have found a very clean sudoku solver engine in web and tailored the call for propeller purpose.
That means in the original application the unsolved puzzle is in a File, I replaced it in a static char array.
I compile the modified app with dev-cpp and see the solution is true.

Unfortunaly I have always no a xmmc environment, because the ordered C3 from my local distributor is currently not on stock.
Have the petition, can anyone who has a xmmc platform compile and compare the result with the attached exe.
Maybe I can shrink the sudoku engine, but at first I need to know is the result ok in general.

Thanks forward
Reinhard

edit: propgcc compile and link w/o errors

yeti

I cannot test the exe because I only have Unixes at hand but maybe the output of running propsudoku.elf on my C3 helps:

Cool. Runs from 64KB EEPROM too.
