OK O`wise ones, here`s something I`ve been pondering..
Considering Blitz can use the AmigaOS libraries, I was interested in the
function that created a separate task from inside the running program (cant
remember the function right now,it`s late and my brains fried..probably
something obvious like CreateTask_ !).As usual, there`s a but....
But, how do I label part of my code(the bit I want as a task) so I can find
it`s address and pass this location to the function?
Secondly,I read that normally a new task cannot read the global variables
created by it`s parent,although compilers insert code when requested that
takes care of this. Since Blitz isnt a C compiler, I take it that it wont do
this, so does anyone know howto do it?
