Well I'm not sure what you mean exactly because I compile the objects for my
XForms code separately and only link at the end (with no problems). I've
included a stripped down version of my makefile below. The fdesign GUI file is
DPTich.fd which, when saved from fdesign produces DPTich.h and DPTich.c. The
important thing to remember is to include DPTich.h in all the other files and
have any global data (which needs to be referenced in several different object
files) declared as "extern" in DPTich_main.h and declared for real in
DPTich_main.cc.
Hope this helps,
TicH
Here's the makefile. The files I manually wrote (as opposed to produced by
fdesign) are called :-
DPTich_main.h - main code header file
(with all extern declarations and includes)
DPTich_main.cc - main code file
DPTich_cb.cc - callbacks
