reaction.lib -- ReAction support functions link library
This library contains the autoinitialization code for the shared
library versions of the ReAction BOOPSI classes, thus sparing the
programmer from having to OpenLibrary() the classes manually. It
also contains stub functions for the node taglist allocation
functions of certain classes. These can be used by the DICE
compiler, which does not support #pragma tagcall.
Autoinitialization works just like normal SAS/C library autoinit.
By declaring the class base extern in all source files (easiest
done by #including the "proto" header, such as proto/layout.h),
the SAS/C linker will take the class base, together with the code
to open the class on program startup (and to close it on exit)
from this library. The same autoinitialisation code should also
work for DICE.
The version number to use for OpenLibrary() is contained in the
variable long __reactionversion. If you do not set this global
variable in your source code, it will be linked from this library,
With the release of V41 or greater classes in Release 2.0, it has
been considered prudent to requier them, so you should set this
value to 41. Note however, that classes NOT part of the ReAction
package are not effected by __reactionversion and will open with
any version available.
If the opening of a class fails, the autoinit code will cause the
program to exit with an error message of "Can't open version Y of
X". If you wish to continue without using a certain class, you
will have to open it manually.
SUPPORTED CLASSES
Version 1 of reaction.lib supports the following ReAction classes.
The version variable of each class is listed after the shared class
name.
images/bevel.image
images/bitmap.image
gadgets/button.gadget
gadgets/checkbox.gadget
gadgets/chooser.gadget
gadgets/datebrowser.gadget
images/drawlist.image
gadgets/fuelgauge.gadget
gadgets/getfile.gadget
gadgets/getfont.gadget
gadgets/getscreenmode.gadget
images/glyph.image
gadgets/integer.gadget
images/label.image
gadgets/layout.gadget
gadgets/listbrowser.gadget
gadgets/radiobutton.gadget
gadgets/scroller.gadget
gadgets/slider.gadget
gadgets/space.gadget
gadgets/speedbar.gadget
gadgets/string.gadget
Additionally, to help programmers, reaction.lib contains
autoinitialization for the following shared classes NOT part of
the ReAction package. Please remember that these gadgets do not
necessarily contain a CLASS_GetClass() type function for getting
the base class. Some of them have registered class names, some
have a function with another name. Some don't have functions at
all, in which case special care must be taken to make sure the
autoinit code is loaded (reference the class base variable, for
example TapeDeckBase, somewhere within the source). Refer to the
documentation of these classes to find out more.
gadgets/calendar.gadget
gadgets/colorwheel.gadget
gadgets/gradientslider.gadget
images/led.image
gadgets/statusbar.gadget
gadgets/tabs.gadget
gadgets/tapedeck.gadget
gadgets/textfield.gadget
The following program will print out the class base of
layout.gadget and the base address of gradientslider.gadget (which
doesn't have functions or a proto header) when compiled and linked
with reaction.lib:
#include <proto/layout.h>
#include <proto/dos.h>
extern void *GradientSliderBase;
long __reactionversion = 37;
main()
{
Printf( "layout.gadget minimum version %ld class base is %lx\n",
__layoutversion, LAYOUT_GetClass() );
Printf( "explicit reference to GradientSliderBase will force "
"initialization:\n base address is %lx\n",
GradientSliderBase );
}
