Re: Compiled library with procedures only?

Hi Robert,

to add functions or globals or constants to the dictionary
you have to specify them via the LinkDef.h file (do rootcint -?
to see more about the LinkDef.h file). To specify these non
class objects add lines like:

#pragma link C++ global kTRUE;
#pragma link C++ global kFALSE;
#pragma link C++ global gDebug;

#pragma link C++ function Strip;
#pragma link C++ function StrDup;

to your LinkDef.h in addition to the

#pragma link C++ class TApplication;

lines.

Cheers, Fons.
