World: r3wp

Because there is none.

did you get a host kit for the amiga from carl?

No I did not

(And if you diff A107 Linux against the Win32 version, you'll see 
the base for my "Lazyness" comment.)

He pointed me at the windoze one ;)

A109

I take it a couple of vectors need to be removed then.. which ones?

Added, not removed :)

hum... you should have buggered him about trying to compile at amiwest 
 ;-)

Wait, I have a patch for that somewhere.

I only managed to squeeze a few minutes out of Carl at the show

busy time

we finished off the libr3.so last night in an altme session.. this 
is very fresh

Maxim: is it worth trying to regenerate the host-lib.h header?

No, because you don't have the script to generate it :)

Let's just do a quick sanity check before wasting more time on this. 
Change the #define HOST_LIB_SIZE in host-lib.h from 31 to 33 and 
see if you still get the "wrong size" error.

then just see if the functions actually match to those.. in the host-kit


ex, does calling RL_Get_Value actually try to get a value from a 
block or is

Andreas: hmm... you are correct.. this is really tricky stuff :)

is=not

ssolie, error gone with 33?

Maxim, this is the hostlib, i.e. the OS_* functions, not the extension 
stuff.

sorry, phone call...

yes very tricky.  oddly enough once you actually get the stuff to 
compile, doing massive changes to the host files themselves is rather 
easy.

wrong version/checksum now (with 33)

much better! :)

ahh yes.. sory.

problem is, we don't know the checksum for amiga libr3 :)

hmm, let's try the linux checksum as well :)

hehe

change the HOST_LIB_SUM define in host-lib.h to 46010

I'll have to keep guessing until I hit it :)

batch file with loop and make  ;-)

neat.. rebol system error now.. the checksum seemed to pass

great :)

the system error now is most likely due to the wrong hostlib vector

now I really wonder what the checksum represents

nothing. it's a value kept in sync between libr3 and the sources

a simple sanity check

btw, andreas, I've almost finished re-working the CGR make file so 
that it organises the files just like the VC setup (and its already 
using the distro r2.exe)

maxim, great :)

I got bitten by not using $() it was replacing $CGR as gccGR  ' :-/

Andreas, can I diff against 107 to find out which vectors I'm missing 
and where to put them?

I'm such a make noob hehehe

yes, but i did that work for you already :)

you are missing os_to_local_path and os_to_rebol_path

https://gist.github.com/e257f772c80381cc40ed

i did the very same stuff you are trying to do now back for A102 
:)

that was the patch I used back then to fix it

ignore the SUM/SIZE stuff at the top, which obviously has changed

but the two missing hostlib functions still are the same
