Structures offsets

kamelito · 21 November 2020, 22:08

Hi,
Is there a document somewhere with the Amiga structures preferably for ASM where the offsets are written before each item of a given struct?
I seems to remember that such thing exist but they're not available in the includes I've.
Anyone?
thanks

They're in the LVO directory in the assembly includes on the SDK.

Edit: whoops! Those are the offsets within the library structure for the jump table entries.

Edit2: If version 2 includes are good enough, the .i files are in directories in http://amigadev.elowar.com/read/ADCD.../node0001.html

I was probably not clear I guess.I don’t want to count every entry of the Struct based on their types but wanna the offset of all items in bytes.

this information is in the RKRM (libraries/includes). But I never could get an electronic version of those.

And OCRing them is a nightmare.

RKRM are available as searchable PDF's at DLH's Commodore Archive.

Yes, you can find them here

http://amigadev.elowar.com/read/ADCD.../node0551.html

Include and Autodocs 2.1 -> System References -> Structure Offsets
Hope this helps you Kamelito, it helps me.

Yep it will help me for sure, thanks you all, includes & autodocs do the tricks too.

Yes, certainly. These are parts of the "Include files" aka ".i" files which define such offsets by means of the "STRUCT" and "STRUCTURE" macros. You find them as contribution of every serious Amiga assembler or compiler, or on the developer CD.

Assemblers and C compilers can read them natively, by means of "INCLUDE" or an "#include" directive, and some debuggers can read them as well ("COP" can, for example).

Who owns elowar.com? Does that person use this site?

Radertified · 22 November 2020, 21:32

eLowar owns it. Unfortunately I haven't seen him around here or on IRC in a while.

I have complete set of the 1.3 RKMs here (and the amazing Ariadne's kickstart guide to the Amiga - best Amiga book ever) here so I've not really needed to look online for this stuff.
But recently doing some research into Devices/DOS I found myself using elowar's site as an extremely useful online reference to have on my phone (also interesting to see the 1.3->2.0 changes)!

It's an amazing resource.

If you need something about AGA stuff elowar don't have it but you can look here: http://amiga-dev.wikidot.com/

I have found out that this book is a very useful source of information. Though it is in German and I know only a little about this language.
