[Eeglablist] importing edf, bdf - memory and speed issues

[Robert Oostenveld]

Hi Andreas,

Thanks for the mail. It is an easy to solve problem: line 91  
currently reads
     if (dat_p[i]>8388608)  //2^23
which should be
     if (dat_p[i]>8388608)   /* 2^23 */

The // notation indicates the start of a comment, just like % in  
Matlab. But formally // is only valid in C++ and not in plain C. Many  
C compilers will accept it, but apparently the one that your WindowsXP 
+Matlab combination is using does not accept it. The syntax with / 
* ... */ is vallid according to the formal C specifications.

The same applies to the read_16bit.c file, at the same line.
I'll change it in my code as well.

Robert
