Hi,

I get a Hollywood error message (Cannot open reqtools.library) when I try to run the following code:

Code: Select all

a$ = StringRequest("My Program", "Please enter your name!")
debugprint("Hello,",a$,"!")
end()

I have reqtools.library v39.3 in LIBS:. I also tried placing it in the Hollywood directory, the Hollywood systems directory, and in the directory where my .hws file is located. I noticed on Aminet that there are actually two v39.3 versions (AROS backport is sized at 56,644k from 2004 and original sized at 46,148k from 1997) but installation of neither to any of the locations mentioned appeared to help. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for the help!!!

Nathan

Hi,

you need reqtools.l.main in LIBS: on OS4 because reqtools.library is a 68k binary called from PPC context which needs glue code on OS4. I don't have reqtools.l.main here now but I'm sure other users can send it to you.
