Anyone working on PFS3 ??

You can follow the progress here: http://pfs-amiga.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pfs-amiga/

Currently almost all changes are generic. Of course the OS3 version is directly benefiting from the changes being made.

So what compiler are you using ? I've tried to compile it myself with SAS/C and VBCC, but it only gives me lots of errors of non existing items (IPTR, DOSBase->dl_Root [dl_root only exists in dos/dosextens.i, not .h] , gadgets/progress.h missing). :huh:

VBCC is unlikely to work. Currently things build with SAS/C and gcc.

Well, in pfs3.h there's a line which says: '#if defined(__GNUC__) || defined(__VBCC__)'. So I thought it might also be build on VBCC.

It builds with SAS/C 6.58 and NDK 3.9 includes at least:

Strangely DOSBase->dl_root is in dosextens.h from NDK3.9, but not in the newer version v 1.170 that says 'Copyright (C) 1985-2005 Hyperion Entertainment VOF and Amiga, Inc.'

gadgets/progress.h is in pfs-amiga/PFSDoctor/trunk.

No. It's not there. Please add.

The official build instructions are in the README file. I think you'd better follow those instructions.

I've now managed to (almost) build everything (still need trace.lib, dunno why), :insane: except pfsdoctor. And it seems to work.....
Deutsch, english, frans and italiano directories still missing from trunk though.

BTW RESNUM should be higher than 5.0 and for this version 'BETAVERSION' should be defined

Yeah... like ReOrg for FFS with GUI and progress display. That would be really
the finishing touch!

Maybe someone can ask Dave Haynie if he feels up for it

The source committed to SVN was for earlier PFS3 version (iirc PFS3 5.2 aka 18.4)

Well, you might wanna bring RELNUM up-to-date. Currently it's still at 5.0.

The SVN "trunk" version is work in progress (and as such the revision hasn't been touched yet). The SVN trunk version isn't guaranteed to be stable at any given moment. Obviously there's nothing we can do to prevent anyone from releasing snapshot builds, but I would appreciate it if any such release would be accompanied with a warning about it being only a snapshot build.

So why not add an alpha or beta definition in the svn, like #define RELNUM "5.2 Beta" (or Alpha), which I did in my copy (unreleased though).
