Hi,

I would like to port this JS library to work on MorphOS. Where should I normally start?
I have tried to compile it using the cross toolchain with no result!

Any guidance is very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Telling us what kind of error messages you get when (not) compiling might be a good idea....

It does not find the following function. It might be a POSIX thing or something missing in the cross platform toolchain.

Code:

and later on when linking:


Code:

It seems that strptime() is currently not available in the libnix support library, you should probably create a stub function for now which returns NULL for a failed conversion. This way it won't stop you from testing other aspects of the port until a solution for the missing function is found.

Thanks for your reply. Is it this library?

yea, it is definitely based around that, even though the one you refer to and the MorphOS version are different branches of the original code.

Should the libnix be in the sdk-sources? Or it is somewhere else?

Quote:

SDK-Sources only contains source archives that need to get released according to its related licenses.
So you won't find it in there.
It's arguable if it would be better if the libnix linklib was open sourced but well, MorphOS is mostly closed source as-is and this is unlikely to change for various reasons which I don't plan to discuss here and would be off-topic anyway.
