- System8Resources version 1.0
- Chris Thomas, ckt@best.com
-
- The source should be mostly self-documenting.
-
- -------Compiler/Linker Notes
-
- 68k Notes:
- Compile a static library and add it to your 68k project
- or just add the two .cp files included in this distribution
- to your project directly.
- Until CFM-68k becomes reality, shlbs are useless.
-
- PowerPC Notes:
- The RMFSpOpen & CreateResFile functions won't be in the
- real System 8 Resource Manager. These are in the file
- System8ResourcesStatic.cp. This file should be added
- to your project.
-
- PPC Sharedlib stuff: Your installer (or user) should drop
- the file "ResourcesLib" in System Folder:Extensions, and
- you should link against a local copy of this same file.
- The name "ResourcesLib" will be recorded as a required
- shared library for your app; I believe this is the same
- name used in Copland, but I'm not 100% sure. I'll
- correct this in release 1.1 in a few days if necessary.
-
- One thing I should point out is that mixing the
- RMFSpOpenResFile or FSpOpenResFile and the real System 8
- Resource Manager might not work, so you might want to
- #ifdef for System 8's FSObject stuff. Emulating FSObjects
- to a certain point looks possible under System 7, but
- it might require more work than I can do in my spare time.
- If someone wants to pay me to do this full time, I'll be
- happy to do it! Otherwise, I'll look further into it
- and we'll see.

- Questions, suggestions, corrections, and bug fixes welcome!
