SDK 53.xx and Code Bench

Hi All,

I manage to have Code Bench 0.8 setup correct to use SDK 53.xx but now, I encounter another problem,

If I create a new project and use an example, I get error messages.

For example, the BITMAP sample available in REACTION folder does give 45 errors ...
Most of them are related to undefined reference . I have updated the include folder to fit the correct path in SDK ... without success ..

I also often encounter error with :
#Include <MyFile.h>
Saying that # is not correct and < > too...

Does anyone know why ?

@freddix

"#include" (lower case "i").

@freddix

I'm not sure if the reaction examples were verified to compile with this SDK release, so it's possible that errors may creep in.

And as tonyw said, all c preprocessor directives are lower case.

@Rigo
They are all lower case and compilation error occurs ...

For example, the bitmap sample gives :

5 errors :
BitMapExample.c:(.text+0x6?): undefined reference to 'IIntuition'
4 errors :
BitMapExample.c:(.text+0xb?): undefied reference to 'IBitMap'
5 more errors on IIntuition
4 on IWindow
4 more on IIntuition
4 on ILayout
5 more on IIntuition
4 more on IBitMap
and 5 more on IIntuition...

@freddix

seems like a -lauto missing in the makefile. BTW you can first try to compile this sample from the shell
(Make all) and see if it compiles like that, if yes then the problem is in Codebench, if no then the sample's author is to blame...

@abalaban
How can I compile from shell ?

@freddix

You never programmed in C before, did you ?
The answer was in my previous post :
- you CD into the drawer where the sample is,
- there should be a file named Makefile in it,
- in this case, you can just type "Make all" in your shell

If you never did C programming before I would suggest you to read a C ANSI book before just to understand the basic concepts of C. As C source code can be very difficult to read for novice coming from Basic or derivative languages, for example



This is just to show some valid C/C++ construct, not a sample of readable code...

@abalaban
I get exactly the same errors when compiling directly from SHELL.

@freddix

so problems are not due to Codebench...

I'm not near my AmigaOne but I'm almost sure that editing the Makefile and adding '-lraauto' and '-lauto' on the link command line could solve your problems...
The link stage is recognizable because it's the only one that uses the final executable name together with the GCC command (I simplify, I hope the makefile is simple).
Makefile main part is structured like this :



for the link stage it should be :

<target> will be the name of your executable to generate

<dependency list, space separated> will contain some names (one or more) with a .o extension

<command to execute> should be something like
gcc -o myExecutable objectFile1.o objectFile2.o

just add -lraauto and -lauto at the end of this line.

I suggest you to find a tutorial on Make and it's makefiles format too

@abalaban
Thank you for these informations.

Now that I have added the option you said, the source code compile, create an executable and it work :)
even under Code BENCH 0.8 :)

Thank you.

@freddix

Glad I could help you...
