I understand that we have an underlying clib2 or newlib, which support lots of the lower level "stuff". and I am being vague because I have no more details than that.(file handles? linkage to parents? )
I understand that certain programs, such as tools for Bars&Pipes, or AHI drivers, or auto-starting USB FD drivers often link with "-nostartfiles", which leaves out the clib2 or newlib code and initialization. I think this applies to many libs and devs as well.
I am absolutely sure of NOTHING I have said so far. This is a learning process for me.
Does anyone have some code on how to use xadmaster.library? The included example is terrible and hard to follow. I am looking for simple code on how to list, add, extract archives. Disk archives would be a bonus.
never used the shared object under AOS.
Could someone show me a quick example on how to open a shared object library under AOS 4?
In particular i would like to open the SDL via shared object for tests.
I experience some strange phenomenon when trying to create a CxFilter object. Especially when "rawmouse" is used, in which case it sets the error to 'BADFILTER'.
Here is a little proggy I cobbled up to demonstrate the issue:
Hello,
When I execute my program, a requester pops up and says that I've used version 2 application.library tags and that the program will crash. The warning appears if I use any of the following tags with the RegisterApplication function:
REGAPP_UniqueApplication
REGAPP_NoIcon
REGAPP_AppIconInfo
REGAPP_Description
REGAPP_URLIdentifier
I'm puzzled because according to the application library documentation those tags are valid. Are there any replacing tags?
By using ObtainDataType() I can easily find the group, basename etc of the datatype of an object, but how do I verify if there is class available to handle it?
For example ObtainDatatype() will return System binary for an executable but if I have no binary.datatype installed I will not be able to open it.
I don't wish to 'test by opening' as some files in the datatset might be large and so take quite a while to process a long list file just to rject the one or two that might not be openable.
Could somebody give me compileable and working example of an Amiga library with one main interface ? No matter what I try to do with Idltool I can't get my library working.
Is it safe to say that if someone running OS4.0, but has been doing all the AmiUpdates for the classes (up to v53+), would not have a problem running a program intended for OS4.1+?
What I am getting at is if I use a gadget class tag the requires v53 of the class, like CLICKTAB_CloseImage, is it backwards compatible with OS4.0? Then will the class function, say FreeClickTabList() (requires 53.11), still work on OS4.0?
Just asking because if I use the latest version of tags/functions will I lose all of OS4.0 users from using my program?
