@khayoz on AmigaWorld sent me.

I'm an OG Amigan, the once proud owner of an A500 and an A1200 that I still think was the best computer I ever owned given the constraints of the time. Sadly I let these machines go, lured away by the cheap easy thrills of fast PC 3D graphics and something called _the_internet_.

I've been wanting to program closer to the metal and sharpen my C/C++ skills and I think hacking on the Amiga is going to be the right itch-scratcher.

I'm toying with the idea of building a Mastodon client as an appetizer. Anyone here use Mastodon enough to be potentially interested in using an Amiga client? Not a big deal either way as this would initially be a learning project for me.

As I'm Amiga-less, I'm running AROS in virtualbox. I've also setup Amibian on an RPi and FS-UAE on an MBP. I'm contemplating building a cheap AROS box as an AROS/AmigaOS dev environment with the dream of picking up an X5000 at some point too.

I'm thrilled to see there's still some interest in all things Amiga and hope to be able to make a small contribution to a better, shared future.

So I have a dev environment in AROS. I'd love to be able to compile my source code for AmigaOS (3.1?) too. I remember there used to be an Amiga SDK disk from C=. Anyone have any pointers to how I could setup a dev environment on Workbench 3.1 running on FS-UAE? Is there even a networking stack on classic Amigas?

Thanks!

--Andy

Some Amiga docs are online :

Then you need to have a compiler, so you grab an old one SAS/C being the best. But you also have VBCC who is slower but it is still developed.http://sun.hasenbraten.de/vbcc/
The 3.9 NDK is here : https://www.google.fr/url?sa=t&rct=j&q ... Vaw1lW3bgBPVzO4NCgRnREGjF

There also plenty of scanned book at bombjack.org

I didn't even know what Mastodon is! I had to check.

Sincerely, I think the world does not need yet again a new social thing.

You can also run AmigaOS 4.1 emulated in WinUAE if the X5000 is a bit pricey.

Well did we not all do that at one time.

I hope your taking about writhing drivers, not poke the hardware directly in programs.

Sure can need more drivers, for lot of hardware, sadly this kind development is the hardest you do.

Frustration level go throw the roof every time do something wrong, freezes and lookups will be expected.

Finding the hardware is not that hard, you look catweasel source code, it should how to find vendor id.

And if you're thinking about porting drivers form Linux, expect that need to rewrite everything or 90% of code.

Well you can't write drivers in UAE for real hardware.

VBCC can be compiled as a cross compiler for linux/cygwin so there is no need to run it through UAE like SAS/C.

Well technically you could also use sas under windows or Linux IIRC using VAMOS.
