- This source code requires the GMS developer archive available from Aminet
- (dev/misc/gms_dev.lha). Compilation of this module means that you have
- read and agreed to the text in the DISTRIBUTION.TXT file.
-
- NOTE: There is a bug in SAS/C which occurs when using registers a0 and a1
- together in a function. This only happens when both registers are using a
- pointer type, such as BYTE *, APTR or struct Object *. So if you see such
- definitions being replaced with LONGs and then being converted inside the
- function, it is done specifically to prevent this bug.
-
- To compile every part of the colours module with SAS/C:
-
- 1> sc str_data.c <Compile the data area>
- 1> sc strings.c <Compile the code>
- 1> link.scr <Link it>
-
- To compile with DiceC:
-
- 1> dcc -c -l0 -mD -mi strings.c -o strings.o
- 1> dcc -c -l0 -mD -mi str_data.c -o str_data.o
- 1> dlink str_data.o strings.o -o GMS:System/strings.mod
-
- If the dpkernel.library is resident after compilation (eg. you have run
- some demos before-hand) then you will need to do a "flush dpkernel.library"
- so that the module will be reloaded the next time you run something.
