Devpac/Assembler help please

Hi, new to this forum and relatively new to emulation in general . Although I had both A500 and A1200 'back in the day!'

Anyway I'm having problems using Devpac 3. Basically I'm trying to learn asm, and I'm trying to assemble some an old demo startup code.

Like I say I've got Devpac 3.18 and NDK3.9, when I attempt to assemble it I get this error message

'error: file not found at line 26 of startup.s' - which is 'exec/funcdef.i'

Now as far I as I can tell I've added the path to the NDK3.9 include directory because it accepts the first include - 'exec/types.i'

Am I missing files from the NDK drawer or just missing something obvious??

Cheers

Just assign INCLUDE: to the include dir with your includes

thanks for the quick reply...... but it didnt work.

Have set the incdir to 'My Amiga HD:NDK_3.9/includes/include_i' but its still giving the same error.

Have looked in the folder and theres no funcdef.i in the exec folder.

Should it be there?

Again sorry if I'm being thick!

bippyM was talking about DEVPAC includes, not NDK 3.9.

Ah right! lol

Unfortunately the devpac ADF i have doesnt have any includes with it. In fact looking at the contents it says there should be both a 1.3 and a 3.1 Include disk with it.

Any idea where I'd find these??

Guess I'll start hunting them down.

dlfrsilver had uploaded them once to the zone, but funcdef.i isn't there either. You can find it for example here: http://aminet.net/package/dev/asm/incupd

here is funcdef.i

* FUNCDEF macro definition for 'exec/exec_lib.i'

FUNCDEF     MACRO    *function
_LVO\1      EQU      FUNC_CNT
FUNC_CNT    SET      FUNC_CNT-6
            ENDM
FUNC_CNT    SET      5*-6

Moved to "Coders Heaven" from prb.apps. Dunno why I didn't do this last night

Anyway I hope that is what you are looking for, if you need the actual file gimme a shout
