I'm sorry, but I don't really understand exactly what you mean
when you say they are stored as macros...
Is the # pragma definition what you call a macro ??
What I need is the stub code for the rom call DoMethod()
in whatever library it is in.... (intuition ??)
and MUI_MakeObject() as it appears not to be in mui.lib.
The only way I know of resolving these linker symbol is to
provide a stub to link to the object code, although in the
last week or so, I understand (mostly) that the compiler
can automatically generate the ROM entry point by using
a # pragma definition of the ROM jump instead of
having the stub in a linkable library.. (Just read about them)
I am using the Aztec 5.2 compiler & the "amiga.lib"
on the dev cd's are not compatible anymore,
so I have always had to build my own after about WB1.3 days.
To do this, I need the stub code, which I can simply make from
the FD files supplied on the CD,
but this function is not in any of them.
As this is the very first time I have ever done any of this OO stuff
I have not needed a stub for these functions,
so that is why they are unresolved.
