Oops, brainfart, thanks John M. for pointing it out.
The CW-build static lib I'm ranting about below probably doesn't like gcc
very much... or is it the other way around? Dunno what you can do about
that, short of using Codewarrior. I don't know a thing about gcc other than
using it a few times when I was in college for homework assignments. :)
I think the SPT1740 SDK "comes with" the up-and-coming Codewarrior 6
release. Because of this, I don't know if about the possibility of a
GNU-kosher version of the static library.
If someone could kindly enlighten me about gcc's usage of shared libraries
and what is necessary to convert a Codewarrior .lib file into a gcc file, I
would be happy to ask the development team at Symbol if they can't just mill
out a GNU-kosher version of that shared library. I think that's the only
thing that is Codewarrior-dependant.
I.e., is there a tool that takes a .lib as input and craps out a .a file for
gcc? Or does the static library need to be built on a gcc compiler for this
to happen?
Thanks,

It uses a shared library and a static library. Adding the .h files like
you did is the first step. So right off the bat, you need to link the
static library s24.lib (hope they didn't rename it on me) into your project
as well, so the APIs in the .h file are resolved (to the function addresses
in the .lib file).

Subject: intergrating the spt1740 api's into GCC using VFDIDE
hello,
i'm attempting to impliment the spt 1740 api's using the gcc compiler with
VFDIDE. i read the documentation and samples from symbol and it said to add
the library files into the project (but that is applicable only for
codewarrior, according to symbol). i included the *.h files like it says in
the samples, but i get some commands not coming back properly, saying "they
don't exist". i believe this is because the library files may not be added?
anyone else has this problem? if so, how did/do you resolve this (in
detail
please =) )
