I have written some M68K assembler code that calls the AmigaDos
routines READ, WRITE, OPEN, and CLOSE. It assembles ok with dos_lib.i
included (that has the LIBENT Read ... etc in it). I link with Alink
and specify the library amiga.lib (as specified in the AmigaDos
manual). The 4 routines end up as unresolved external references.
Where do I find the correct library?? I have 1.1 and 1.2 developer
disks.
I want to build a disk that boots a different operating system.
I was thinking of using DiskEd to write to the first 2 physical
blocks of what would normally be the WORKBENCH disk. This assumes
that when Kickstart finishes, it looks for Workbench boot in that
location. Does anyone know if that is correct? Also, does Kickstart
expect anything in particular? (Since it does know if its NOT
Workbench).
Thanks for any help!! Bob 225-6042

Re: .0 The Amiga follows the UNIX convention that all C extern names have an underscore concatenated in front of them by the compiler. Thus, the true name of Open is _Open, Close is _Close, etc. Note that case is significant. The Amiga is a C machine, after all. | |||||
