Hi,
In my quest to understand dictionary generation using CINT, I’ve been playing around with the standard EVENT example in $ROOTSYS/test.
I have the following situation. I would like to add a utility.h and utility.cxx to Event.cxx and Event.h where utility might contain very simple functions e.g.,
float multiply(float,float);
float sayHelloWorld();
My question is how to modify the EventLinkDef.h and Event.cxx so that the simple routines get picked up by CINT.
I tried adding the following lines to EventLinkDef.h but to no avail.
#pragma link C++ function sayHelloWorld;
#pragma link C++ function multiply;
During compilation I get the following error messages:
c++ -O2 -pipe -Wall -W -Woverloaded-virtual -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/local/root_v5.18.00/include -c Event.cxx

Thanks for your help
