VBCC "kick13" error in "exec\interrupts.h"

[Cyprian]

Hi All,


I have a simple example where VBCC throws me an error:

>    VOID    (*i
 error 20 in line 25 of "exec\interrupts.h": no declarator and no identifier in prototype
        included from file " \vbcc_bin_win64\targets\m68k-kick13\include/exec\exec.h":15
        included from file "engine3a.c":1

I wonder whether it is a real error or just an my configuration issue.









Commandline:

  vc.exe +kick13 -lamiga -lauto -cpu=68000 test.c -o test

Code:

#include <exec/exec.h>

int main() {
   // printf() displays the string inside quotation
   printf("Hello, World!");
   return 0;
  }

All VBCC output:

I can compile your sample "test.c" file without issue with the pretty recent vbcc I have. What NDK version are you using (I use 3.9 even when targeting 1.3)?

[Cyprian]

NDK3.2 works fine but kick13 fails.

I try to write simple window / bitmap application for 1.3 and actually some examples work fine.

One of them fails, I thought the code was bad, but when I just added include <exec/exec.h> to the simple 'hello world' example also VBCC fails.

Hi Cyprian,

I can reproduce your issue with VBCC 0.9h using the NDK-1.3 headers on Amiga OS 4.1.

Yes, there is an error in the NDK-1.3 exec/exec.h header, it does not include exec/types.h.

Either you fix the file yourself, or add the following include before including exec/exec.h in your source file:

#include <exec/types.h>
#include <exec/exec.h>

[Cyprian]

@FlynnTheAvatar
thanks, that was that!

no more errors so far

I wouldn't call that an error. The NDK 1.3 is just different, and in the past we all had to make sure that these dependencies are included as well. That's real retro coding. Nice, isn't it...?

haha so true.


anyway, after some tweaks it works now.




I've added also following part (from 3.2) to my 1.3 target:

/*    exec/memory.harderr*/
#define MEMF_ANY    (0L)    /* Any type of memory will do */

/*    intuition/intuition.h    */
#define IDCMP_CLOSEWINDOW    0x00000200L
#define IDCMP_NEWSIZE        0x00000002L
#define IDCMP_REFRESHWINDOW    0x00000004L

#define WFLG_SIZEGADGET        0x00000001L    /* include sizing system-gadget? */
#define WFLG_CLOSEGADGET    0x00000008L    /* include close-box system-gadget? */
#define WFLG_DRAGBAR        0x00000002L    /* include dragging system-gadget? */
#define WFLG_DEPTHGADGET    0x00000004L    /* include depth arrangement gadget? */
#define WFLG_SIMPLE_REFRESH 0x00000040L
#define WFLG_SIZEBBOTTOM    0x00000020L    /* size gadget uses bottom border */

Never change the system headers! If anybody wants to compile your source in the future, this will result in a lot of confusion.

If you really want that, put these defines in local headers, which you keep together with your project's source.

BTW, the intuition-flags are in intuition/intuitionbase.h for 1.3, but without the

IDCMP_

or

WFLG_

prefix.

yep, I've added them to my project

good to know, thanks
