View Full Version : How to use chunkyPPC.library with StormC V3?

Hi!

I want to change my program to use the chunkyppc.library. But when I use it the linker failed with the message that OpenGraphics() and CloseGraphics() are not defined... :-(

I included the chunkyppcbase.h and chunkyppc_protos.h files. Also a LinkerLIB created with fd2pragma is included....

In the protos file only the defclarations of these function is present. No amicalls or definitions....

What can I do to make the linker work? Any helping hands here? :-D

Are these functions using tags ? If so, there must be taglist equivalents (e.g. OpenGraphicsA). Use them instead. Or build your own tag stubs. Or try the latest fd2pragma, AFAIK it can create tag stubs.

Bye,

Hi!

No, these functions donīt use tags...

The prototype looks like this:

struct Mode_Screen *OpenGraphics(char *Title, struct Mode_Screen *ms, int override);

Do anybody knows for what "override" stands?

Hey, is it possible that you supplied arguments that do not perfectly match up with this prototype? if not then it's possible the C++ compiler thinks you are overloading the function call in which case it would assume it's a normal C++ function that would need to be linked. Since you're getting a linker error rather then a compile error, I'm thinking it's something along those lines. Are you sure there is no link library that you're supposed to link with?
