[Coco] looking for latest toolshed location

[Bill Pierce]

Walter, if you are trying to compile the stuff in the "C3" folder, good luck. I think all that was moved there to "attempt" to convert it to run on a PC, but nobody did much with it. It's basically still the code from OS9/OS9000 with very little changed. I personally would love to see it run properly...
I tried compiling it under OS9 (before it was moved there and edited) and most of it failed terribly.

Thanks for the pointer.

I'm sure that is the one I have.

It is a tar ball and has a version of 2.2 and is dated 2017-09-09!

I tried to use casm to assemble the output of coprep->cocomp->coopt but it fails.

I used the commands:

$ coprep hello.c | cocomp | coopt >hello.a

$ casm hello.a -os9 --mode-rma -list

But it does not produce a correct relocatable file and the listing shows several errors (to missing references like printf) that are not correct. It also fails to place external references into the symbol table for resolving later by the linker.

The hello.a output correctly assembles using Nitros9 rma or r63 so I know there are no errors with hello.a.

Any ideas?

Walter

Sorry  I pasted the wrong URL for toolshed.  I meant to paste https://sourceforge.net/projects/toolshed/ not drivewire.  BTW drivewire is great too.
