CW Access Paths & function calls

UtopiaTim — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 23:18:47 GMT

Hi all,

I am incorporating a commercial software package into my project,

and there are over 45 files located in a ...\project\Sources\common

directory. In these files lie most of the functions that do the 'real' work.

To be able to call one of these functions, do I actually have to have

all of the files open under the 'sources' window in Code Warrior, or

is there a way to get the compiler/linker to actually search within

each of these files for the function?

The directory (common) is setup as one of the paths in the Standard

Settings/Access Paths.

Since I'm pretty new to doing C things, I figure there might be a way

to do this without putting all of the files open in 'sources'.

(also i think that the eval version of CW only lets you have 30 files

open anyway).

Thanks!

Tim

Hello Tim,

My understanding is that, since the introduction of CW 6.0, the file limit no longer applies to the special edition.

Mac

Hi Mac,

Thanks for the info. I've just gone above 30 & was wondering what was gonna crash!

Figured out how to do things with their code, & am now progressing.

Thanks again,

Tim
