working with STRPTR

Submitted by tekmage on

Hi All,

I wanted to share a little bit of knowledge I figured out. I could be silly for even posting this but I've been playing around with C, creating several projects for fun. When working with strings I had been using:

STRPTR = "Insert Text here";

But this will throw a compiler error:

app.c:###: warning: initialization discards qualifiers from pointer target type

sockets and signals

Submitted by alfkil on

I am trying to make the libQtNetwork.so work with signals. Because I am using the newlib socket etc functions, I cannot use ISocket->WaitSelect(). So instead I am trying to get a signal via

ISocket->SocketBaseTags (SBTM_SETVAL(SBTC_SIGEVENTMASK), socketSignalMask, TAG_END);

and

ULONG temp = FD_ACCEPT | FD_CONNECT | FD_READ | FD_WRITE | FD_ERROR;
status = setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_EVENTMASK, &temp, sizeof(temp));

Is there a tutorial or example of adding catalogs to programs?

Submitted by AmigaOneFan on

I have a program that uses reaction objects and help bubbles and want to add to it the ability to display in a different language using new language catalogs.
Is there an example of this somewhere? The Wiki from Hyperion has a reference to it but not a full up example of everything you need to do. What would be great is a simple reaction example - one version without the catalog features and one version of the same program with all the language cataloging added so the user can see the difference.

Thanks!

Making a program that uses IDOS->System Tags Workbench friendly?

Submitted by AmigaOneFan on

Hi,

I noticed that if I use any IDOS->Printf() statements in a program, that program will have DSI errors if the printf gets executed if the program is setup to be run as a Tool with an icon indicating start from Workbench instead of start from shell.

Similarly, if a program has a statement such as (IDOS->SystemTags("copy file1 file2",0,0)) and for any reason the copy fails and results in text output, the program locks up if it is run as a tool started with workbench.

Fixing Amitwitter

Submitted by tekmage on

Hi All,

Run AmiTwitter for the first time and saw the basic auth error. Looking at the bug list I see a suggestion to use liboath for the authentication. I stuck trying to get an initial compile so I can start to mess with the code. Here is the error:
