How to import a PB lib while using Tailbite?

I'm using a PB library imports in my project but I can't compile them to a tailbite library.
See this code, for example. It will not compile with Tailbite.
Code: Select all
Import "window.lib"
CompilerIf #PB_Compiler_Unicode
_PB_Window_ProcessEvent(a,b,c,d) As "_PB_Window_ProcessEvent_UNICODE@16"
CompilerElse
_PB_Window_ProcessEvent(a,b,c,d) As "_PB_Window_ProcessEvent@16"
CompilerEndIf
PB_Window_Icon
PB_Window_Cursor
PB_Window_Objects
PB_Object_GetOrAllocateID(*Object,id)
EndImport
ProcedureDLL This()
OpenWindow(0,0,0,320,240,"")
EndProcedure

I think i got it fixed, misunderstood the problem a bit
can you test the new version and report back ?

Yes, it's fixed! I wasn't expecting such a fast response. Thank you.
This may be beyond the scope of Tailbite but if I create a library that uses mapped procedures from a PB library but does not use a normal procedure the PB compiler does not include it with the compiled exe.
For example:
Code: Select all
Import "window.lib"
; imports
EndImport
ProcedureDLL DLLFunction()
; this function uses the imports
EndProcedure
; the compiler will error unless a command
; from the library is used somewhere in
; the program
Procedure NeverRun()
WaitWindowEvent()
EndProcedure
I'm pretty certain that this is not the case with non-PB libraries.

If this is a PureBasic problem then just tell the linker which lib to include...
Go to "Compiler options", then write in "Linker options File:" your linker file name.
This linker file is a normal ascii file that you can create by yourself and write linker options in it like:
/implib:filename
etc.
Hope this helps.
(sorry if I didn't understand what you are after)
