TRiP98 plug-in generation

Plug-in generation

At several locations within the TRiP98 package it is possible to use external "plug-ins". These are user-supplied C-functions with a defined parameter list, compiled and linked in a special way (For specialists: the functions are prepared to be called as if they were part of a dynamic shared library). In order to facilitate the compile and link step a shell script is provided:

trpfct [-l<lib>] [-L<ldir>] [-I<idir>] [-e<entrypoint>] <src>

where <src> is the C source file name (without extension), <lib> is an optional user library name, <ldir> is an optional user library directory, <idir> is an optional user include directory. <entrypoint> is the name of the entrypoint, it is this name with which the plug-in can be called at run time. If omitted the name of the source file is assumed. The actual name must be chosen as required by the application (see functions)

Example

```
trpfct ctnum
```
compiles and links the source file ctnum.c and assigns it the entry point ctnum.
```
trpfct junkct -ectnum
```
compiles and links the source file junkct.c and assigns it the entry point ctnum.
