Linking errors with CardResource

[cmsj]

Hey all

I'm trying to write a little program to interact with PCMCIA cards (really, just query them for information) and I've run into an odd issue.

Whether I use SAS/C or ADE's gcc, or an m68k gcc cross compiling toolchain on Linux, I'm getting a linker error relating to the CardResource symbol being undefined.

I'm not sure what I should be linking to define it, but at least in the case of both gcc's, the symbol is defined in libamiga.lib that gets linked.

I've pushed up the code to https://github.com/cmsj/cardInfo and in its current form it should compile with GCC, it just won't link.

Am I missing something really stupid here?

Change

APTR cardRes;

into

struct Library *CardResource;

then the linker should be happy.

You also have to ReleaseCard() at the end of your program.

Aha! Thank you

I was hunting all over the place for someone else to be supplying that symbol, it hadn't occurred to me that *I* had to provide it
