Hello everybody,

I wanted to play around with programming, so I installed the SDK to my MOS2.5 and tried to start with a simple example. I took this one https://morph.zone/modules/newbb_plus/viewtopic.php?topic_id=7155&forum=3#74035 to have a start, downloaded the additional MCCs but I do not know if there is a predefined location to put them. Is there any recommendation where to put those header files for TimeText and such? In the example they are placed in the existing MUI path but I fear that any update to the SDK might overwrite them, put them aside or such as the MorphOS installation itself does with older versions. So where should I put .h, autodocs and so on at best?

The place for user files in the SDK is SDK:GG/usr (so sdk:gg/usr/include for includes). This is the only directory that will be preserved when updating to a more recent SDK. As for documentation, put it where ever you like (just remember if you put it into SDK: it will be gone after an update unless it's in GG:usr)

So I put there two directories gg:usr/includes/mui with Time_mcc.h and such inside and another one for docs. But this path for personal include files seems to not be found. When I use
Code:
in the source as r-tea does then gcc tells me: mui/Time_mcc.h: No such file or directory. What do I have to add where to have the gcc find my includes automatically?

You need to tell the compiler were to search:

gcc ...... -I/usr/include .....

Or add the directory to "Compiler options" in gccprefs if your useing Cubic (or MorphED).

-I/usr/include should not be needed because it is already part of gcc's specs file.

What is required on the other hand is to put the files into gg:usr/include/ instead of gg:usr/includes/ :-)

The 's' was too much, thanks for the hint.

Howdy.

I know this thread is old but it's exactly what I needed.

I loaded up Morphos 3.0 and the SDK yesterday. I'm teaching myself C++ these days using Code:Blocks 10.05 on Ubuntu Precise. But I wanted to see if my newbie console programs worked on Morphos 3.0. I got them all to compile tonight using g++ from command line.

Small milestone but it makes me want to dance a happy-happy joy-joy dance.

Great!
