"old" devices

Hello,
Can someone has a fast way to port old devices source code to os4?
Is the same of the libraries?
Also a small example would be useful..
thank you

Assuming that the device is

Assuming that the device is written in C porting it to AmigaOS 4.x won't be much harder than porting a library. In fact might even be slightly less work since you don't generally need to bother with adding a jumptable for m68k compatibility since most devices don't have library functions (a few do though like timer.device, capsimage.device, ahi.device, etc.).

Example devices (C source code):
ramdev.device
diskimage.device (old, very simple, cut down version)
