i need some basic info on xad usage to decrunch some file

i've downloaded the sourceforge archive, but the examples won't compile

there is some code available to watch?

What do you need help for? Ambient supports some archive types to decrunch. You can unpack them from context menu or enter them from doublecliking. Just some filetypes do not list a content.

Xad is part of MorphOS it is used in various places.

XADUnFile 9682 ----rwed 07-Sep-13 10:39:06

There is no need to install anything.

yes, i know, i know :)

maybe i expressed myself badly, i need some info on how to use xad.lib in a program :D

(we are in the developement forum after all ;) )

specifically i need zip and rar support (maybe xad is a no go and i need to link other library to decompress them)

Somewhere in the archive is documentation.

I had written an Unarc clone for AROS. I can send you the source if you need it.
