Re: [MiNT] Resources as Interface define them

Hi all,

I'm wondering, would we benefit in anyway to support resource-files as
defined by Interface?


Because :
- Interface rsc is near the same as ressource of AES 4.1
- xrsrc source are buggy a lot, because in some case this function crash on some rsc to load
- rsc should be load by AES not by application
- I have implement this for vision software because I not understand how an AES can work with this software before this patch (not test with XAAES) and I was very desappointed to not be able to display CICON on this software. - Now most of modern software use interface rsc, they use their own loader, so implement this is not need! I have add this because there is near no diffrence with AES 4 rsc, this was easy to do, perhaps there is bug but it work fine for Vision ressources.

I mean, any programs out there would use the AES's
rsrc_load() if bit 2 in ap_gout4 indicates Interface-style rsc-header
capability?
Yes

If not, I dont think its worth implementing this, and rather
think it over before doing any extended rsc format implementation.
Opinions?

Oh, and btw, Merry Xmas everyone! :-)
