DefLibs

What's the best way to build a WORKING DEFLIBS?

I have .OBJ files in BLITZLIBS folder.

MAKEdeflibs just creates a 1kb deflibs, which obviously does not work.

DefLibMan has a great GUI, creates a 20kb file (I only have 2 .obj libs) but in Blitz2 I get the "$00FC Library not Found" compile error.

Any ideas?

MakeDefLibs is a pretty simple tool that just scans the subdirectories of the Blitzlibs: assign for files to add to deflibs. If you don't have Blitzlibs: assigned, or you don't have any subdirectories inside BlitzLibs:, it won't add anything.

The library not found error might be due to library numbers changing - if a library number is changed, any .bb2 source files referencing it will be broken. It could also be a token index problem - select Reload all libs from the Compiler menu to see if that helps.

SOLVED

In Folder BLITZLIBS you need to have 2 folders:

AMIGALIBS which has to have all Amiga System libs from the EXTRAS disks

and USERLIBS which has to have 3rd party .obj libs you need to add

without the AMIGALIBS folder & contents you can't build a proper DEFLIBS
