    Hello there.

    I'm glad to see that my old iBook and PowerBook can be of some more use with MorphOS.

    For a house automation project of mine I thought I'd like to revive my old AmigaOS enthusiasm and use MorphOS on an iBook for it.

    I've got enough of C/C++ and would like to use AmigaE, PortablE or AmiBlitz (or something else which can do the job).
    Now the question: can those languages (or runtimes) use the Poseidon USB stack as well as the TCP/IP stack?


    Regards,
    Manfred

    Hmm, sorry. For some reason I couldn't post to the "Developer" forum.
    Although the question is not completely wrong here.

    PortablE should be able to use these.

    You can use any language which supports Exec device and library calls, I recommend ECX.

    Why do you recommend ECX over PortablE?

    You don't need any linker or libraries, just the compiler and the modules.

    @asrael22

    The latest version of PortablE isn't finished yet, and the beta has bugs on MorphOS. I'm waiting for a working new version myself.
