- Version : 2.1
- Release Date : 23.12.1994
-
-
- Requirements
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
- - OS V2.04+ (V37)+ and its libraries
- - superviewsupport.library V1+
- - "xpkmaster.library" V2+ and/or "powerpacker.library" V33+
-
-
- Description
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
- Unpack.svobject is an external Library-Module for the
- superview.library V5+.
-
- I supports reading of XPK- or PowerPacked files and will re-parse
- them through superview.library by creating an temporary, unpacked
- file at the location "VMEM:" and then retrying to do the specific
- operation on the file.
-
- So this is just a Dummy-SVObject which does for you the work of
- unpacking graphics files before displaying them.
- Writing (packing) of files is not possible.
-
-
- Remarks
- ~~~~~~~
- * VMEM:
- * Temporary data will be written to a directory assigned to "VMEM:".
-
- * Compatibility:
- * Well, this one is not a "real" SVObject and will thus not work
- with Versions below V5 of superview.library.
- It depends on the presence of GfxBuffer-Support and various other
- things. It's just thought to make your life easier, if you've to handle
- many packed files, which you don't want to unpack each time you
- wish to display them.
- Nevertheless it is recommended to work with unpacked files, wherever
- possible. If you wish to pack files with PP20 or XPK, please
- use the SVO-Format for this instead.
