FAQPage Schema
How do I look up AmigaOS API function signatures and types?

To look up AmigaOS API function signatures and types, search the master index for the function name, then read the corresponding autodoc to confirm the exact signature, inputs, outputs, and usage notes from the ADCD library.

Does the ADCD library include developer tips and errata for AmigaOS coding?

The ADCD library includes Amiga mail hints that provide developer tips and errata, helping you check for common pitfalls when coding with exec.library, dos.library, timer.device, intuition, or graphics.

Can I find code examples and prose documentation for AmigaOS APIs?

You can access prose documentation and code examples within the ADCD reference library to gain additional context for designing shims, drivers, and native features across AmigaOS versions.

What is the best way to find a specific function across autodocs-3.5?

The best way to find a specific function across autodocs-3.5 is to use the master index lookup, which locates functions and types across the entire autodocs collection before retrieving the detailed reference.

Why does my AmigaOS driver code need the ADCD reference library?

Your AmigaOS driver code needs the ADCD reference library to retrieve precise API references, ensuring correct function signatures and types when designing shims, drivers, and native features across different AmigaOS versions.
