"SDK Install output: (Window)
Cannot open "sobjs:" for output - COPY: object is in use"

That happens normally if you are running Dopus4 when the SDK is being installed. It's "libgcc.so" in SYS:sobjs/ in use.

It is 290227 bytes. If that is the size you have, then don't worry about it.

"1) What did this do or didn't do to the SDK installation?
I had no idea on how to respond/do."

Didn't do anything bad. libgcc.so is still installed in SDK:gcc/lib/gcc/ppc-amigaos/4.2.4/newlib/lib/

So if the filesizes don't match, just simply copy it over into sobjs:

"2) Why was the ABC-shell CoreUtils 6.10 not used? I put them in and haven't noticed any shell problems. Maybe it's a compiler thing?"

Not sure.. Do you have AmiCygnix installed? Make sure AmiCygnix is in the user-startup AFTER the SDK. It is important.

Looks like your new Christmas theme has stuffed something up? "Flat" mode isn't working for me, and it's quite annoying.

Edit: Deleted OWB cookies and it's OK now. Weird.

@Jack

Yes, i'd like this too.

@Kicko

LOL! Qt is a popular GUI toolkit used in KDE :)

We also need wxWidgets.

@BrandonLee

I would also check with IBrowse in WinUAE on a PC if you have access to that.

Looks like it's fixed in 3.20 (whenever that comes out).

Is there a proper bug report on this yet?

@jahc

I can't use beta 9 with having my status in front of my nickname everytime I type. It's horrible. You need to make it optional or i'm sticking with beta 7 forever :)

rexxdossupport.library has a ReadArgs() function to simplify this, however that library doesn't come with the OS. Depends if you want to add another requirement or not.

I can make a function that does the same stuff without having to use any 3rd party libraries.

Test this one. I think there is an easier way to do it, but i've never had to bother parsing arguments as accurately as this before.

This still isn't going to work for stuff like hello="something here"
Nor will it work if quotes are mismatched.

Both can fixed up if you need to do handle that type of thing.

Example: RX args.rexx "hello test" testing123 "this is a test"

Output:

hello test
testing123
this is a test


/**/
Parse Arg Args

Call ParseArgs()
SAY Arg.1
SAY Arg.2
SAY Arg.3
Exit

ParseArgs:
i2=1
DO i=1 TO Words(Args)
IF Left(Word(Args,i),1)=d2c(34) THEN DO
Arg=SubStr(SubWord(Args,i),2)
Pos=Pos(d2c(34),Arg)
Arg.i2=Left(Arg,Pos-1)
Words=Words(Arg.i2)
i2=i2+1
i=i+Words-1
End
ELSE DO
Arg.i2=Word(Args,i)
i2=i2+1
End
End
Return 0

@jahc

Don't kid yourself; You knew it'd be me who'd respond first :)


/* Test arguments */
Parse Args Arg1 Arg2 Arg3

SAY Arg1
SAY "My name is" Arg2
PLAYSOUND Arg3
Exit


However Arg1 is just the first word, Arg2 is the second word, Arg3 is the third word.

You could do this instead:

/* Test arguments */
Parse Args Args
Parse Var Args B1"'"Arg1"'"B2"'"Arg2"'"B3"'"Arg3"'"B4

SAY Arg1
SAY "My name is" Arg2
PLAYSOUND Arg3
Exit


... but then that REQUIRES using apostraphes.

Like RX whatever.rexx 'hello test' 'blah blah' 'something something'


B1 just means "Blank 1".. It's a variable that isn't going to be used, but necessary anyway.

Give me a moment and i'll code up exactly what you're after.

@smf & @TiredOfLife

Not much I can do about that! Hmm.. Anyway, please just e-mail me or PM since this is a Sabre thread afterall!

@smf

I sent you a message. Couldn't find much info on error 213, no-one seems to know what it is except it might be related to people with an @msn.com address going online & offline.

If no-one minds me hijacking.

Latest AmiMSN at http://tinyurl.com/mujnds receives files and avatars (type AVATAR in the chat window... you can only do it once per session).

I need to know of any bugs, since jahc is getting his protocol info off my own reverse engineering and research.... and if it doesn't work in AmiMSN, it won't in Sabre either :)

@Raziel

What's whats?

@TiredOfLife

What does VNC have to do with FTP?

On OS3.x I think I used AmiFTPd? Was shareware. Perhaps a port of proftpd or something might be available.

Hi guys.

Another hijacking, sort of.

The MSNP2P file transfer implementation that will be worked into SabreMSN is the same one I have going in AmiMSN at the moment.. so bug testers would be nice, it'd help jahc and I both.

Link available through Google.

@TiredOfLife

Can u log into MSN from work? PM me your Live ID.

@TiredOfLife

Yeah I sorta revealed something for 60 seconds then wiped it out :) Can you come on IRC?
