Pretty quiet in here...shame really.

Anyway, I'm getting this link warning:

============================
Link Warning : ignored 'isdigit' (code) in MSL_C_Mach-O_D.lib
Previously defined in my_file.c

Link Warning : ignored 'isdigit' (code) in libSystem.B.dylib
Previously defined in my_file.c
============================

However, isdigit() is most definitely *not* defined in my_file.c. My
file merely uses isdigit(), once, in code like this:

if ( isdigit( someChar ) )
    {
    // do something
    }

If I remove the call, say, like this:

if ( false  /*isdigit( someChar )*/ )
    {
    // do something
    }

the link warning goes away.

My System Access Paths are set like this:

{Compiler}MSL/MSL_C        (recursive)
{Compiler}MacOS X Support    (recursive)
{OS X Volume}usr/include
{OS X Volume}usr/lib
{OS X Volume}System/Library/Frameworks  (marked with framework "f" symbol)

This is a Mach-O Carbon app in CW 10. The app compiles fine in XCode
2.2. But debugging on a Powerbook is so painfully slow in XCode that I
wanted to try using the CW debugger on it, so I back ported the thing
to CW.

The app builds fine in XCode. It builds in CW with no errors and no
warnings - except for this. The same bit of code pasted into a CW
Mach-O sample app links fine, and I've triple-checked that my project
settings match the working sample.

It's been some years since I used CW regularly, but there was a time
when I lived in it. After trying to fix this off and on over several
days, though, I have to admit to being stumped.
