Path: news.larc.nasa.gov!amiga-request From: amiga-request@ab20.larc.nasa.gov (Amiga Sources/Binaries Moderator) Subject: v91i010: rxgen - call any library function from arexx, Part01/01 Reply-To: rouaix@margaux.inria.fr Newsgroups: comp.sources.amiga Message-ID: <comp.sources.amiga:v91i010@ab20.larc.nasa.gov> Date: 12 Feb 91 00:28:32 GMT Approved: tadguy@uunet.UU.NET (Tad Guy) X-Mail-Submissions-To: amiga@uunet.uu.net X-Post-Discussions-To: comp.sys.amiga.misc Submitted-by: rouaix@margaux.inria.fr Posting-number: Volume 91, Issue 010 Archive-name: rexx/rxgen/part01 RXGEN is an ARexx library designed for the hacker. This library allows you to call any function of (almost) any amiga library from a Arexx program. I would say it is essentially useful under 2.0 to test some of the new "high-level" features of the system. It also works under 1.3. You can use the library to write small programs, when you don't want to use your C-compiler ! Eventually, your program will get bigger and bigger, and you'll find out that either you don't need your C-compiler, or that Arexx is slow (heheh). --Francois #!/bin/sh # This is a shell archive. Remove anything before this line, then unpack # it by saving it into a file and typing "sh file". To overwrite existing # files, type "sh file -c". You can also feed this as standard input via # unshar, or by typing "sh <file", e.g.. If this archive is complete, you # will see the following message at the end: # "End of archive 1 (of 1)." # Contents: libs libs/rxgen.uu rexx rexx/FD2rxFD.rexx rexx/alert.rexx # rexx/db.rexx rexx/fd.rexx rexx/port.rexx rexx/wbfront.rexx # rexx/wbmaster.rexx rxgen.doc rxgen.readme # Wrapped by tadguy@ab20 on Mon Feb 11 19:28:29 1991 PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb ; export PATH if test ! -d 'libs' ; then echo shar: Creating directory \"'libs'\" mkdir 'libs' fi if test -f 'libs/rxgen.uu' -a "${1}" != "-c" ; then echo shar: Will not clobber existing file \"'libs/rxgen.uu'\" else echo shar: Extracting \"'libs/rxgen.uu'\" $6963 characters$ sed "s/^X//" >'libs/rxgen.uu' <<'END_OF_FILE' Xbegin 700 rxgen.library XM```#\P`````````"``````````$```1,````*0```^D```1,<`!.=4K\````G XM!````6V``0D`````'@```"P```!.<GAG96XN;&EB<F%R>0!R>&=E;BYL:6)R6 XM87)Y(#$N,"`H,3<@07!R(#$Y.#DI#0H`````+````%X```!V````H@```,X`9 XM``#<````\@```3P```%`_____^````P)`,````H````>X```#@8`T```%``!^ XMT```%@``P```&````"P`````+PTJ0"M.`"(CS@```5(K2``F0_D```%:<")._ XMKOW8(\````%69P(@#2I?3G52;@`@"*X``P`J(`Y.=7``4VX`(&8,""X``P`JY XM9P1A```$3G5(YR`&*DXL;0`B2FT`(&<```P([0`#`"IP`&`H)"T`)B!-3J[_> XM!")Y```!5DZN_F)P`")-,"T`$)/`T&T`$DZN_RX@`DS?8`1.=7``3G59CR\/V XM+PA.N0```;Y03R!?3G4``````````')E>'AS>7-L:6(N;&EB<F%R>0````!.L XM5?_X2.<!`'#_*T#_^'X`#(<````$;"H@!W(,3KH/3B!`T?P````L+Q`O+0`(^ XM3KH/7%!/2H!F!BM'__A@!%*'8,X@+?_X3-\`@$Y=3G5.5?[L2.<@`$*M_O`@2 XM;0`(+R@`*&&<6$\K0/_X#(#_____9P``Q"!M``@B*``<`H$````/+T$`!'(,L XM3KH.XB!`T?P````L)"\`!+2H``AL!G`18```IB`M__A.N@["($#1_````"PB< XM:``$2&W^]"\M``A.D5!/*T#__$J`9G`@+?[T!(`````!;60,@`````1L7..`+ XM3OL(`F`.8!Q@+DYQ*VW^^/[P8$8O+?[X3KH-$%A/*T#^\&`V2'@`!$AM_OA.V XMN@S,4$\K0/[P8")(;?[X3KH.C%A/+P!(;?[X3KH,L%!/*T#^\&`&<`$K0/_\3 XM(&T`#""M_O`@+?_\3-\`!$Y=3G5.5?_<<``K0/_H*T#_X"!M``@O*``L*T#_% XMW"M`__!.N@P,6$\K0/_T4H`O/``!```O`$ZZ#8Q03R(M__0&@0```!`O/``!- XM```O`2M`__A.N@UP4$\K0/_\2JW_^&<$2H!F"G(#*T'_W&```6X@;0`(+R@`F XM+$AY````:"\`3KH-&D_O``P@;0`(2J@`,&<22&W_X"\H`#!.N@S:4$\K0/_PO XM+RW_\"\M__Q.N@U:4$\K0/_L2H!G``$<+RW_]"!M``@O*``L+RW_^$ZZ"ZI/: XM[P`,+RW_^$AY````="\M__Q.N@RX3^\`#$AX``1(;?_L+RW__"\M``A.N@D2R XM3^\`$"M`_]Q*@&<.+RW_[$ZZ#.183V```,8O+?_X2'D```!\+RW__$ZZ#'1/= XM[P`,2&W_Y"\M__PO+0`(3KH(>D_O``PK0/_<2H!G.B\M_^Q.N@RD6$\O+?_X, XM2'D```!T+RW__$ZZ##A/[P`,2'@`!$AM_^@O+?_\+RT`"$ZZ"))/[P`08%A(M XM;?_@+RW_Y$ZZ"^A03RM`_^A2K?_H+RW_Z$ZZ"R!83RM`_^0O`$ZZ"H183R\`C XM+RW_Y"\M__PO+0`(3KH(3D_O`!!P`2!M``P@@"%M_^@`!&`&<!(K0/_<2JW_M XM_&<6("W_]`:`````$"\`+RW__$ZZ"^A03TJM__AG$B`M__12@"\`+RW_^$ZZR XM"]!03R`M_]Q.74YU3E7_X"!M``@O*``L3KH*"EA/*T#_]%*`+SP``0``+P!.& XMN@N*4$\B+?_T!H$````0+SP``0``+P$K0/_X3KH+;E!/*T#__$JM__AG!$J`N XM9@IP`RM`__!@``$(+RW_]"!M``@O*``L+RW_^$ZZ"?1/[P`,+RW_^$AY````# XM?"\M__Q.N@L"3^\`#$AM_^@O+?_\+RT`"$ZZ!PA/[P`,2&W_["\M_^@K0/_PG XM3KH*M%!/*T#_X$J`;@IR$BM!__!@``"B4ZW_X"\M_^!.N@G>6$\K0/_H+P!.1 XMN@E"6$\O`"\M_^@O+?_\+RT`"$ZZ!PQ/[P`0+RW_^$AY````="\M__Q.N@J$W XM3^\`#$AM_^@O+?_\+RT`"$ZZ!HI/[P`,*T#_\$J`9CX@;?_H(!`O`"M`_^1.Z XMN@JL6$]*K?_@9AA(>``$2&W_X"\M__PO+0`(3KH&JD_O`!!P`2!M``P@@"%M\ XM_^``!$JM__QG%B`M__0&@````!`O`"\M__Q.N@I,4$]*K?_X9Q(@+?_T4H`O3 XM`"\M__A.N@HT4$\@+?_P3EU.=4Y5__1(YP$`?@`@;0`(("@`'`*`````#U6`% XMOH!L``"L(`<B!^6!2K`8-&<``(H@;0`,$!!(@%*M``P,0`!!9U`,0`!)9QX,Y XM0`!39EX@!R('Y8$@;0`((FT`$"*PK0`08&`@;0`06*T`$"`'(@?E@4AM1 XM__@B;0`(+S$8-"](``Q.N@D^4$\@;P`$((!@-"`'(@?E@2)M``@@<1@T(FT`K XM$"*06*T`$&`:(&T`$$*06*T`$&`.4JT`#"!M`!!"D%BM`!!2AV``_T(@+0`,E XM3-\`@$Y=3G5.5?^F0JW__"!M``@O*``L3KH'E%A/(&T`""\H`#`K0/^L3KH'N XM@EA/(BW_K%*!+SP``0``+P$K0/^H3KH(_E!/(BW_J%*!+SP``0``+P$K0/^T4 XM3KH(YE!/(BW_K-*M_ZA>@2\\``$``"\!*T#_L$ZZ",I03RM`_[A*K?^T9PI** XMK?^P9P1*@&8*<`,K0/_\8``!("\M_ZP@;0`(+R@`+"\M_[1.N@=*3^\`#"\M( XM_Z@@;0`(+R@`,"\M_[!.N@<R3^\`#"\M_[1(>0```)`O+?^X3KH(0$_O``Q(N XM;?_`+RW_N"\M``A.N@1&3^\`#"M`__Q*@&8``+PB;?_`(%$K2/_$L/P``&8*B XM<!(K0/_\8```HB\M_[`O+?^T2'D```"8+RW_N$ZZ!^Y/[P`02&W_P"\M_[@OQ XM+0`(3KH#]$_O``PK0/_\2H!F:B!M_\`[4/^F(`A4@$AM_\@O`"\M``@K0/^\K XM80#]R$_O``P@0!(0*TC_O%*(*TC_O`P!`"!G"'`1*T#__&`L<`(@;0`,((`P2 XM+?^F2,!(;?_(+RW_O"\`+RW_Q$ZZ`EQ/[P`0(&T`#"%```1*K?^X9Q8@+?^L0 XMT*W_J%Z`+P`O+?^X3KH'BE!/2JW_M&<2("W_K%*`+P`O+?^T3KH'<E!/2JW_] XML&<2("W_J%*`+P`O+?^P3KH'6E!/("W__$Y=3G5.5?^D0JW__"!M``@O*``LO XM3KH%D%A/(&T`""\H`#`K0/_<3KH%?EA/(BW_W%*!+SP``0``+P$K0/_83KH&!

X Closes a library that has been opened by GenOpenLib. X Will fail if the opencount of the library is <= 0, otherwise, X the library will be closed, and the opencount decremented. If the count X gets null, then the base of the library will be set to 0. X XINPUTS X "libname" : the name of the library you want to close (what else ?) X XRESULT X You're not interested in the result (it is the opencount at this time, X but this is subject to change). X See above for side effects X XEXAMPLE X call GenCloseLib("intuition") X XBUGS X Maybe. X X Xrxgen.library/GenACall rxgen.library/GenACall XNAME X GenACall - call a function from ARexx X XSYNOPSIS X something = GenACall("libname","fname",par,...) X XFUNCTION X REQUIREMENTS: X the library should have been opened (see GenOpenLib) X the function fname should be defined by X LIBS.libname.fname = <description> X the format of the description is described later. X GenACall will check the base of the library, convert your parameters X following the description, and return (hopefully) the result. X If the library base is 0, the function will abort (ERROR). X If GenACall can't find the function description, it will abort. X XINPUTS X "libname" the name of the library your function belongs to X "fname" the name of the function X par,... parameters for the real function call. Many types allowed, X check the format of the description X XRESULT X A 32 bit word, hopefully a correct one... X XEXAMPLE X pointer = GenACall("exec","FindPort",'FOO BAR') X XBUGS X Surely. None found. X X Xrxgen.library/Function Description Format X X XDescription of the format: XLet's take an example to fix the ideas XLIBS.exec.FindPort='FE7A'x||S||'200A'x XThus, the format is a string containing: X - two bytes for the offset of the function in the library X - a variable number of characters that describe the type of X conversion to be applied to the parameters X - a SPACE (here obtained by '20'x) X - a coding of the registers in which the parameters will be passed. X XYou don't have to find all this by yourself. XThe FD2rxFD utility provided in this distribution is able to compute a Xpartial description from the FD.FILES (to be found on Extras disk). XCheck the two directory variables in the program, and run X1> rx fd2rxfd exec XThis will generate a file containing all (partial) function definitions Xfor the Exec library. X XIn this examples, the information given by the FD.FILES is XLIBS.exec.FindPort='FE7A'x||?||'200A'x XThe question mark (?) is to be replaced by the proper type description. X X Technical digression: the problem lies in the fact that datas in ARexx are X not typed. They all are represented by strings, with no way to determine X safely and systematically if a particular data is a "real" string, or X an integer, or a pointer. X XYou will have to find by yourself (consulting the proper docs) which kind Xof conversion is needed. XIn this version (1.0), the supported conversion are: X I the ARexx data represents an integer X It will be converted internally to a 32bit integer with the AREXX X function CVa2i(). X Valid data examples: Invalid data: X 1 'foobar' X 324 X X S the ARexx data represents a string. X No conversion is applied. The pointer to the string is used as X an argument X Valid data: any X X A the ARexx data represents a pointer. X It MUST be a 4-byte long string, containing the value of the X pointer (usual convention for pointers in AREXX). X The "raw" value of the data will be used. X Valid data examples: X '00 00 00 00'x X '00 00 06 76'x X XIn the example, the parameter is a port name, so the conversion should be S.

X This library allows you to call any function of (almost) any amiga X library from a Arexx program. X I would say it is essentially useful under 2.0 to test some of X the new "high-level" features of the system. It also works under 1.3. X You can use the library to write small programs, when you don't want X to use your C-compiler ! Eventually, your program will get bigger and X bigger, and you'll find out that either you don't need your C-compiler, X or that Arexx is slow (heheh). X X XDistribution: X The rxgen distribution consists in the following files X libs/rxgen.library the library itself X rxgen.readme (this file) X rxgen.doc autodoc file X rexx/FD2rxFD.rexx filter from FD.FILES to specific format X X rexx/db.rexx DisplayBeep example X rexx/wbfront.rexx WBenchToFront example X rexx/alert.rexx DisplayAlert example X rexx/port.rexx MsgPort example X X rexx/fd.rexx Scanner for FD.FILES X rexx/wbmaster.rexx AppMenuItems under 2.0 X X All the files of the distribution are Copyright (C) 1990 Francois Rouaix X and The Software Winery. X RXGEN is NOT Public Domain, but can be distributed freely, provided X all files are included, unmodified. Inclusion in a commercial product X requires previous written permission from the author. X XInstallation: X You will have to X -copy rxgen.library to your libs: directory (or any :libs directory X under 2.0) X -install the script FD2rxFD.rexx in your rexx: directory X -install rxgen.library in the list of arexx libraries with either X 1> rxlib rxgen.library 0 -30 0 X or the usual ARexx clause: X if ~show('L','rxgen.library') then call addlib('rxgen.library',0,-30,0) X XFunctionalities: X rxgen provides you with 3 functions, X GenOpenLib generic open library X GenCloseLib generic close library X GenACall generic assembly call X X GenACall will need a definition of the function it will call. X Fortunately, part of this definition can be obtained automatically X from the FD.FILES (found on the Extras disk), through the X ARexx program FD2rxFD. More details in the autodocs. X XIn the distribution, you will find an autodoc file for these three functions. XYou're invited to check with the examples (the examples have to run, the doc Xdoesn't). Examples are usually documented when needed (!). X XSpecial offer: X -INCLUDED in the distribution is an example (wbmaster.rexx) using a X new 2.0 feature of the Workbench: AppMenuItems X Read the comments. Use with care. X X -INCLUDED in the distribution is an utility (fd.rexx) for scanning X the FD.FILES when looking for X * either function OFFSET when function name is known X * or function name when OFFSET is known X XBug reports, comments, suggestions: see my mail/e-mail address in the header X X Francois Rouaix X END_OF_FILE if test 4005 -ne `wc -c <'rxgen.readme'`; then echo shar: \"'rxgen.readme'\" unpacked with wrong size! fi chmod +x 'rxgen.readme' # end of 'rxgen.readme' fi echo shar: End of archive 1 $of 1$. cp /dev/null ark1isdone MISSING="" for I in 1 ; do if test ! -f ark${I}isdone ; then MISSING="${MISSING} ${I}" fi done if test "${MISSING}" = "" ; then echo You have the archive. rm -f ark[1-9]isdone else echo You still need to unpack the following archives: echo " " ${MISSING} fi ## End of shell archive. exit 0 -- Mail submissions (sources or binaries) to <amiga@uunet.uu.net>.
