I am working on a High Impact, Irix 6.2, Perfomer 2.0.4/2.0.2, N32
ABI.

I just added some code and must have exceeded a magic size number,
for now I get seg faults in pfInit after the following warning:

PF Warning/Resource(12): pfOpenWSConnection - failed to open
display "(null)" for pid 3251.

I remembered a discussion about 3 months ago about a workaround
published with the Performer 2.2 beta release notes which said
(among other more complicated things using par) to try:

setenv PFSHAREDBASE 0x18000000

This works....I would like to put this in my code with the following
(also from the release notes):

   pfSharedArenaBase(0x18000000);

But this does not compile because the function expects a void *.

What is the correct syntax to set this address?

Thanks in advance,
scott
