Finally, I have received permission to make the bmaps and ACE includes for all
standard libraries available to you! A big THANK YOU goes to Dr Peter Kittel who
is now with Escom.
I've provided the following:
- bmaps for OS versions 37, 39 and 40. Find out which OS version
you are running by typing VERSION from a shell, and copy
the appropriate set of files to your ACEbmaps: directory.
- FD2BMAP: a modified version of the bmap creator such
that whenever a name clash occurs, the function name
will be preceded by an underscore (eg. _Read, not xRead).
(should be compiled and placed in ACE:utils/FD2BMAP along).
- MassFD: converts a directory full of FDs to bmaps; relies
upon the existence of ACE:utils/FD2BMAP/FD2BMAP.
The source to the FD utilities above can be found in the utils directory of
this archive and can be used to create bmaps from new FDs. The provided bmaps
will however cater for your needs in regard to standard Amiga libraries, so
you may never have need of these two utilities.
Along with the full set of standard header files (see Includes.Readme), ACE
can now much more easily be used for serious, system-level work. Making use
of the RKM examples will in particular now be simpler.
A very very big vote of thanks goes to Nils Sjoholm for his great work in
converting the standard include files from C to ACE and for finding a suitable
new preprocessor. This is an extremely beneficial service to the ACE community.
While Nisse was able to automate the conversion to some extent, it was still a
partly manual process. A big piece of work! See includes.readme for more.
If you find any problems with the bmaps, includes, or utilities, please
let either myself or Nisse know. See Includes.Readme for Nisse's e-mail
address.
