Hello again
This might be another way around: create a project without multigen.
In this case you don't need to specify section in the source code at
all !
You just build an ld-script, and use 'man-made' stubs, when needed.
I did it for my first program and it was not so bad, but I have a
feeling that the stubs can be written in a more professional way.
What I have for a stub is smth like:
extern Boolean RealFoo(UInt32 arg);
Boolean StubFoo (UInt32 arg)
{
return RealFoo(arg);
}
Being aware of a stack problem and preformance issue, I used
stubs only for rerely used functions which take not more than
one argument.
What I was looking for, is having a stub that will just 'kick'
the call without shifting stack. For that reason I rewrote
the above stub in assembler:
.even
.globl StubFoo
StubFoo:
jmp.l RealFoo
With assembler stub it compiled and linked OK.
but crashed, giving smth like non-even address in pose.
Can you tell me what is wrong with that code ?
BTW, should I declare RealFoo in assember as external ?
Since it compiled without error, this should'nt be a problem.
Michael
