Problem with incbin

| I want to include several files with incbin but now I have a problem: It seems that the 'filetype' function doesn't work with incbin. does someone have an idea why or how i can also see if the incbin file exist? ie : Print filetype("incbin::test.txt") this always returns 0 |

| incbin builds the file into the executable program. If the program compiles successfully then the file exists. |

| I wrote a control program that prints out every single line and that works, but my problem is that I want to write a kind of documentation tool. There are several files which are needed for the docs, but there are as well some files which are *.bmx or *.bb for examples files. Now the app should decide whether there is a *.bmx or a *.bb file. If they are not included in the exe everything works fine by using the filetype function but this function does not work with incbin. I know that the files are there, because I can read them but only if I know if they are existing. But I want to make the program like: Pseudo: If filetype(incbin::abcdef.txt) = 0 then Print "not documented" else Print file endif |

| I have now written my own little function to get if an IncBin file exist or not : (maybe it will help) Function inc_filetype:Byte(incfile$) if not Readfile(incfile$) then Return False else Return True endif Endfunction I know it is not much but it works. |
