Question: Optional libraries... possible? #388

Closed anchor76 closed 7 months ago

anchor76 commented 7 months ago

Hello,

Not an issue, but question: Is it possible to use a library optionally? I would like to use picasso96API.library optionally. So if it's not installed, just skip it, and use intuition + graphics libraries. As i see if a referenced lib is unable to open, the app is not starting. (failing with openlibrary() error at startup)

Is there any compile option for this?

Thanks :)

You have to open that library by yourself. To disable the auto opening for a library, define and initialize that library in your code:

struct Library *P96Base = 0;

Then open/close it yourself and use it, if available.
