| | 12 | DESCRPITON: |
| | 13 | |
| | 14 | mod_*.cpp files contain handlers for tags. These files are modules - they contain |
| | 15 | one wxTagModule class and it's OnInit() method is called from wxApp's init method. |
| | 16 | The module is called even if you only link it into the executable, so everything |
| | 17 | seems wonderful. |
| | 18 | |
| | 19 | The problem is that we have these modules in LIBRARY and mod_*.cpp files contain |
| | 20 | no method nor class which is known out of the module. So the linker won't |
| | 21 | link these .o/.obj files into executable because it detected that it is not used |
| | 22 | by the program. |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | To workaround this I introduced set of macros FORCE_LINK_ME and FORCE_LINK. These |
| | 25 | macros are generic and are not limited to mod_*.cpp files. You may find them quite |
| | 26 | useful somewhere else... |
| | 27 | |
| | 28 | How to use them: |
| | 29 | let's suppose you want to always link file foo.cpp and that you have module |
| | 30 | always.cpp that is certainly always linked (e.g. the one with main() function |
| | 31 | or htmlwin.cpp in wxHtml library). |
| | 32 | |
| | 33 | Place FORCE_LINK_ME(foo) somewhere in foo.cpp and FORCE_LINK(foo) somewhere |
| | 34 | in always.cpp |
| | 35 | See mod_*.cpp and htmlwin.cpp for example :-) |
