QuickC (R) Compiler, Version 2.01
|
|
|
|
===========================< Samples List >================================
|
|
|
|
In addition to the reference and "C For Yourself" examples in the QC
|
|
Advisor, the following sample programs are provided with QuickC.
|
|
|
|
Files Description
|
|
----- -----------
|
|
|
|
GRDEMO.MAK GRDEMO illustrates general graphics techniques
|
|
GRDEMO.C including drawing, animation, palette
|
|
MENU.C switching, window adjustment, menus, and
|
|
MENU.H turtle graphics. The MENU and TURTLE modules
|
|
TURTLE.C are independent modules that could be used
|
|
TURTLE.H in your own programs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
LIFE.MAK LIFE illustrates general C and inline assembler
|
|
LIFE.C techniques. In particular, it shows how to write
|
|
TOOLS.C entire screens to the screen buffer. The TOOLS
|
|
TOOLS.H module contains independent functions and
|
|
macros that could be used in your own programs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CHRTDEMO.MAK CHRTDEMO illustrates presentation graphics
|
|
CHRTDEMO.C techniques. You can use this program as a tool
|
|
CHRTOPT.C for testing different modes and options before
|
|
CHRTSUPT.C building them into your own programs.
|
|
CHRTDEMO.H
|
|
|
|
CRLF.C CRLF is a tool for converting certain files that
|
|
can not be loaded into the QC environment. It
|
|
removes unwanted control characters and ensures
|
|
that each line is terminated by a carriage-return/
|
|
line-feed pair. CRLF.EXE is also provided on the
|
|
utilities disk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
======================< Note on Graphics Libraries >=======================
|
|
|
|
GRDEMO and LIFE require GRAPHICS.LIB. CHRTDEMO requires GRAPHICS.LIB
|
|
and PGCHART.LIB. If you did not request these libraries in your
|
|
combined library files during setup, you will get "unresolved
|
|
external" linker errors when you try to compile the programs.
|
|
|
|
If you are using the QC environment, you must add the appropriate
|
|
library names to the program list (.MAK) files. For example, if you
|
|
want to compile LIFE, select Edit Program List from the Make menu. A
|
|
dialog box will appear showing the contents of the LIFE.MAK program
|
|
list. Enter the name GRAPHICS.LIB at the File Name prompt and select
|
|
the Save List button.
|
|
|
|
If you are using QCL, specify the library names on the command line.
|
|
For example, use this command line to compile LIFE:
|
|
|
|
QCL life.c tools.c graphics.lib
|
|
|
|
|
|
======================< Note on Naming Conventions >=======================
|
|
|
|
Two example programs, CHRTDEMO and GRDEMO, use a subset of the naming
|
|
conventions used in OS/2 and Windows include files. In this
|
|
convention, the first character of an identifier is a lowercase letter
|
|
called a prefix. Common prefixes include p (pointer), a (array), i
|
|
(index), and c (count). After the prefix, there may be an additional
|
|
lowercase tag, usually indicating type. Common tags include ch (char),
|
|
f (flag), sz (zero-terminated string) l (long), and x or y (x or y
|
|
coordinate). Following this there may be one or more qualifiers, each
|
|
beginning with an uppercase letter. For example, an identifier called
|
|
achFileName is an array (a) of characters (ch) containing a file name
|
|
(FileName).
