Re: [ZooLib-dev] New to ZooLib

[Conrad W. <we...@on...>]

Ok Dario, here comes:

I actually found my CW Pro 7 SDK in the Reference directory. I moved the
whole shablong called (CodeWarrior SDK) - yes parantheses are part of it
- into the Metrowerks CodeWarrior root directory because that's where the
zoolib zac project expects it.

I build the zac carbon target. Got lots of warnings which I neglected. It
build a "ZooLib Asset Compiler-carb" straight in the correct plug--in
directory but you need to restart CodeWarrior for it to be recognized
(bummer).

Now I build the carbon Paintertest project without problems. You should
see a console output when the zac compiler kicks inn:

Generated ZooLib asset object file: "Geni:Develop Tools:Zoolib
CVS:zoolib:samples:paintertest:painte
rtest_build_cw::NPainterStd_Assets_en.zao"

Generated ZooLib asset object file: "Geni:Develop Tools:Zoolib
CVS:zoolib:samples:paintertest:painte
rtest_build_cw::PainterTest_Assets_en.zao"

I got a series of link warning but just neglect them.

The carbon paiter test app runs fine - nice actually.

NB: I build this on a 260 MHz G3 runnning 9.2.2. I have a 500 MHz iBook
running 10.1.5 but to be honnest I am fed up with it, it is just toooooo
slow! Dual G4 750 MHz++ is needed for OS X!

We have a lightning storm comming inn right now, I am closing down!

Cheers,
Conrad-
