Title: AREXX is working?
Post by: OlafS3 on March 15, 2023, 05:44:08 PM
I would like to use AREXX on AROS 68k but port is not accessible despite Rexxmast started

Does Arexx work on Aros? At least on 68k?

If you are using Rexxmast and the required OS3 libraries, something works ! What software are you trying to run?

Ok On my AfA One OS3.9 AfA OS, AmiFox + AmiTube works fine, I didn't see the Tab "AmiTube", I thought Amitube Started automaticallyment, now I try on AROS One 68, let's see what happens.

Video from ALB42

perhaps the missing part could be added to Zune. Certainly not only Amifox would benefit

Zune supports Arexx port already. The difference is that MUI enables that port by default, but in case of Zune a developer needs to add the following attribute when creating application:

MUIA_Application_UseRexx, TRUE

There is also I fix that I did that enables the port if MUIA_Application_Commands is passed. I'll include it next patch for ABIv0 release. It's already included in ABIv11.

is it possible to activate it on zune too like on mui? At least on 68k there are certainly a lot of apps using mui with no source codes available who might rely on it. At leasr somewhere in a preference (if it is now needed for Aros apps)

BTW another question... I tested roms from current official branch and there is at least one error causing problems with games that was fixed in your official 68k nightly. I think it was from lowlevel library (in one game the player was constantly hitting). Are all fixes from your branch also in official branch? For me that is critical because games are extremely important on 68k.

And Aros 68k is no longer build on official download page, it seems to be broken

The change I mention is already on 68k AROS muimaster.library (both my builds and main builds)

While 99% of changes will be synchronized, some small amount of changes I will not push for different reason and some small amount of changes won't be accepted in official AROS repo, again for different reasons.

And Aros 68k is no longer build on official download page, it seems to be broken

I'm sure Kalamatee will fix this eventually.

What problems did you encounter ?

I have already downloaded the Build "AROS-20230313" and did not have any problem !

FYI, I was wrong. While Zune can expose the port already handling of messages is not implemented.
