Hi

I still need to know why PM Robots does not want to show colors on some BMP files. I need to play with it further.

But for the moment I had compiled PM Maze.
https://github.com/OS2World/GAME-PUZZLE-PM_Maze
And Racer, but that is a command line app
https://github.com/OS2World/GAME-SPORTS-Racer

I fixed all errors and warning according to what I had learn here, and, in PM Maze, also by changing the USHORT to ULONG the program and the menus started working. It is working and the new binary is also on the github.

Hi

I'm trying this sample:
https://github.com/OS2World/DEV-SAMPLES-C-PM-Chain

But now I get this error with "chain.res". I checked the makefile but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Code: [Select]
gcc -Wall -Zomf -c -O2 chain.c -o chain.obj
chain.c: In function 'ClientWndProc':

You forgot to add chain.res as a prerequisite for chain.exe.
Code: [Select]
chain.exe:  chain.obj minsubs.obj chain.def chain.res

Now it trps with a sigsegv. The trp gets more informative with adding -g to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS. Fixing the warnings might be enough to fix it. Look later.

Thanks Dave, now it compiles, but like you said, it also traps here. Not sure if it can be possible to make it work  :'(

I think the wrong parameters are fed to _beginthread(), mainly the pointer to runThread(PCALCPARM),  but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know the fix.

Hi

I did a quick summary of the projects I was able to compile, and I took some time to include a screenshot of the samples I compiled. Here it is the list.

https://github.com/OS2World/GAME-PUZZLE-PM_Maze
https://github.com/OS2World/GAME-SPORTS-Racer (This is not PM)

Just in case, I saved on github's Releases, the old original version (source code and binaries if apply) and the new release that is compiled under my conditions (gcc, wrc, wl, make), so I'm not deleting any old material if someone wants to go back to different OS/2 version or tools.

I had been fun for the moment. I will check out some other samples.

Hi again

I moved on to this sample: https://github.com/OS2World/DEV-SAMPLES-C-PM-ctrldes

It compiles and runs, but I'm think I'm cheating here.
Seems like the goal of the sample is to generate a "controls.dll" file and "driver.exe" that should use that DLL. But I'm compiling driver.exe with everything inside it.

It seems that I don't know how to correctly generate a DLL with the makefile, and make the "exe" to link that.

Help with the makefile is appreciated on this case.

Thanks Dave.

It compiled, created the DLL, LIB, EXE files and runs.

Does it looks broken? Maybe, the picture on the article shows the items on the PM window from left to right (Attached).
The article is here: https://archive.org/details/os2devmag/OS2DevMag-V5N2/page/n73

The only issue now when I compile is that "Circular driver.exe <- driver.exe dependency dropped."
Quote
[C:\DEV\DEV-SAMPLES-PM-CRTLDES]make   2>&1  | tee make.out
make: Circular driver.exe <- driver.exe dependency dropped.
gcc -Wall -Zomf -c -O2 driver.c -o driver.obj
gcc -Wall -Zomf -c -O2 controls.c -o controls.obj
gcc -Zdll -Zomf -Zmap  controls.obj controls.def -o controls.dll
gcc -Zomf -Zmap -lcontrols driver.obj driver.def -o driver.exe

It is also interesting that it generates now a control.map and driver.map, which I guess it is some automatic documentation by the Open Watcom Linker.

OK, I guess it is correct. You must have left driver.exe in the prerequisites for driver.exe, at least I had to add it to get the circular dependency.
The map files come about from adding -Zmap. Handy for doing things like checking exports, which I added them for, other type of debugging or creating xqs files,
Code: [Select]
mapxqs driver.map
mapxqs Controls.map

Here's my full makefile, renamed to have .txt

I found the silly issue on the makefile comparing it to your file.

It is now done here: https://github.com/OS2World/DEV-SAMPLES-C-PM-ctrldes

Hi

I'm trying this sample:
https://github.com/OS2World/DEV-SAMPLES-C-PM-Chain

Hi Martin,

this is a perfect example where it sometimes makes sense to rewrite the whole thing. This thing was full of bugs (which had nothing to do with being a 16-bit application ...).
Find attached, it should now work.

Lars
