- Help for !DeskLib (Desklib compile-time resources)
- ——————————————————————————————————————————————————
-
- This application contains everything you need to write programs using
- functions from the DeskLib library - the library itself, plus the
- DeskLib header (.h) files.
-
- Once the filer has 'seen' this application, everything is set up ready
- for you to use it.
-
- To see the header files, simply double-click the application - a filer
- window will appear in a convenient position at the right of the screen,
- containing all the header files (if you don't like the layout, it can
- be changed by editing the !Run file [hint: *help filer_opendir])
-
- To #include the header files in your own code, use the form:
- #include "DeskLib:Header.h"
-
- (Note that there is a minor bug in Desktop C - you will need to use 'cc
- -I,C: ...' instead of 'cc -IC: ...' for this #include pathname to work.)
-
- To link with the DeskLib library, use something like:
- link $(linkflags) C:o.Stubs DeskLib:o.DeskLib
-
- For examples of this, look in the Examples directory.

- DLL DeskLib
- ———————————
-
- This directory now contains a '!DLLs' application-directory with the
- dynamically linkable versions of the DeskLib's sublibraries. You will
- need to add them to the main Straylight !DLLs application using
- !DLLMerge if you want to run programs which are built for use with the
- DeskLib DLLs.
-
- See the file !DLSources.SDLS_Apps for information on how to build an
- application to use the dynamic linking version of DeskLib.

- DeskLib StrongHelp
- ——————————————————
-
- The file '!DeskLib.Help' is a StrongHelp help-directory. This has been
- automatically generated from the DeskLib header files. The formating is
- rather crude in places, but there is a help page for every DeskLib
- function, typedef and global variable mentioned in the header files.
-
- Note that '!DeskLib.Help' needs StrongHelp version 2 to work - the old
- StrongHelp uses a different format.
