Hi Brian,
without seeing the input that causes the error nobody will really
be able to tell you much.
Many thanks for the response. I've pasted the relevant code below:
typedef void* HANDLETYPE;
ERRORTYPE VIDDEC_HandleCommand (HANDLETYPE phandle, ...)
{
VIDDEC_COMPONENT_PRIVATE* pComponentPrivate =
(VIDDEC_COMPONENT_PRIVATE*)phandle;
HANDLETYPE hIPC = NULL;
....
....
(IPC_DSP_INTERFACE*)pComponentPrivate->pIPC = (IPC_DSP_INTERFACE*)hIPC;
The line immediately above this text is causing the aforementioned
"invalid lvalue in assignment" error. Would this qualify as one of
the deprecated conditions you mentioned below?
Please let me know if you need any further information. Many thanks
again for your prompt response and help - it's greatly appreciated.

Read the release notes for changes. In particular

If this is what is causing the error then you need to update the code to
remove this deprecated construct. But keep in mind this is only a
guess; without seeing the input that causes the error nobody will really
be able to tell you much.
