Well, I was now able to add three methods myself (which allowed me to open an .arc file, but only one with uncompressed data), by pasting their signatures into my code and calling the...
Paul, that code was made by the creator, not by me. The thing is, that function adds the method to some static list of compression methods elsewere, and that list is used... This static variable,...
I guess you didn't get the full picture... That function is to be called statically, on the global scope, and not inside other functions.
I did go through the code, as you suggested, but doing that...
Thank you very much, but I already debugged the code, and my breakpoint on that file never gets the execution to stop. How would I know why that line is never executed if it is static?
Man, all the tutorials I find about static libraries teach how to use ar.exe and how to do the linking, but that I already got covered... Can anyone point me to the specific topic(s) I have to learn...
Paul, does that also apply to functions called statically inside the .o files, or just the ones I call? Because the function I am calling is being executed ok, but the...
There is a file compressor called FreeArc (that has GPL code) and a sub project called Unarc (meant for file extraction only) that is free for any use.
Their source codes can be downloaded...
