Device Claim Tester v1.0
===================
This program can be used by programmers to
check that they correctly implement the device
claim protocol as desribed in the RISC OS 3
programmers reference manual (page 3-247 in my
copy).
Each device has a major and a minor device
number allocated by Acorn. The tester will
operate with any device numbers which are in
the 'Devices' file. If you want to use a
different device then add the extra lines to
this file.
Lines have the format:
<major>[.<minor>[,<minor>]]=name
Numbers are in decimal, but can be entered as
hex by preceding them with '0x'. If several
minor devices are similar then they can be
combined onto one line - the special string
'%i' will be replaced by the minor device
number. Make sure you have a major device
for each minor device or you won't be able to
select them.
Bugs etc.
=========
If you have any problems then contact me and
I'll try to help. This program was however
knocked up quickly as I needed to check one
of my other programs. It doesn't really
seem worth vastly improving really. The
source is available if you really want it
although I can't imagine why. Be warned that
it is based on the evil RISC_OSlib which is
why it's so huge.
Good luck.
