NAME
resource.library -- resource handling for BOOPSI classes
DESCRIPTION
The resource.library offers an API to handle resource objects
(an object file created from ReActor or similar BOOPSI creator
tools). One can create BOOPSI objects and groups of BOOPSI
objects and resource tracking is completly done by
resource.library.
A resource object ist an AmigaDOS hunk object file that contains
data structures with all necessary informations for creating BOOPSI
objects. Special class informations allows to handle intuition
BOOPSI objects.
Strings are automatically localized if needed. The resource
objects contains references to labels (for the locale string IDs)
and strings (for the default strings) which has to be linked with
symbol definitions from the application (a new catcomp version is
available to create assembler source files for those definitions).
The default label for the resource object is _RCTResource (defined
by ReActor). Use a statement like
extern char RCTResource[];
to access the resource object. The variable RCTResource has to be
used as the first argument to rl_openresource.
