GodLib

over in coding Pink indicated that there was a new updated Godlib available. Erm, would be available.
So is it, and will it be?

Is there a documentation for Godlib's APIs?
Maybe it could be possible to create the doc with a tool such as Doxygen?

As with most coders, I guess Pink is too bored to document his own sources

He does provide some examples with the lib though.

One of the aims of Doxygen is to create a documentation from sources.
I'm not familiar with Doxygen but I've done my best while creating Godlib docs.
I will upload the zipped docs as soon as possible (I mean as soon as my DSL connection comes back 'coz I use a 56K modem now :cry:

).
Size of archive is 1 MB and it needs about 8 MB for depacking and an OS which accepts long filenames (it tried it on my Falcon running MiNT and Highwire, it works pretty well).

i will point pinky in this direction

Mr Pink's examples help quite a lot.

Ok now my DSL connection is back, so here are the docs: http://strider.mjjprod.free.fr/outils/godlib_doc.zip (start it with "index.html")

Evil EA and their punnishing schedules... hen he's going to bugger off to .jp soon. Atari needs pink!

Evil EA and their punnishing schedules...

I remember there was this huge uproar on Slashdot a while back, about the whole quality of life thing, and how it related to EA working practices.

The conclusion was that they were a bunch of slave drivers. I wonder what Pink's own take on that was?

Hi,

Godlib is really powerfull, despite the fact it can't run under Steem with a TOS version older than 2.06. Thanks to RG.

I have one question : Is there a way not to compile all the files each time ? I mean how to build a library in pure C in order to have just one file named godlib.lib for example ?

Yes, no problem:

Code: Select all

; project file for godlib

e:\pc\lib\godlib.lib   ; output file is godlib.lib in teh PC directory on drive e:

.L[-J]
.C[-K -Y -P]

; add all c files to be compiled here
example.c (godlib.h example.h)

Build the project and the result is the library godlib.lib

I remember finding a bug in his .asm routines that did the trap calling for malloc. That caused some trouble in TOSes<2.06. Shouldn't be too hard to find it (hey, if I did it, so can anyone else

)

Bottom line: Pink has an ok version of godlib

Hi,

Thanks for the help, it works fine. A '=' (equal) is missing but that's nothing, I didn't knew the compiler directives, that's all.

I tried to compile first all the Godlib in one file, but it seems that some files doesn't work well, as CHUNKY.S and GRF_TC_S.S. I stopped my investigations here and decided to put in one file only what I nedd. It worked.

And again, thanks a lot, it saves time during the compiling process.

How are you building you projects? Normally Pure C only compiles changed files (Alt-m make). It has to check all files to see if they have changed (source fule timestamp is later as objectfile timestamp) but it won't compile every file (unless you use Alt-a to make a project).

Normally, as you said, but it doesn't work with me, so that I have to do an Alt-x to force to make all the files.

In fact I am under Steem. I like to have a lot of lines of code on screen, so that I edit the C source under Win and compile the project in Pure C under Steem. But when I do an Alt-m after modifying the source code it doesn't compile. I don't know why and I won't look forward for the moment.

George, can you tell me more about this bug? I'm an absolute newbie in asm, some help would be greatly appreciated!

I really would like to start doing things with this lib but for the moment it doesn't compile for TOS < 2.06 ...
