Looking for a particular SHC library

[Tiviat]

How important is the sh lib named "shcnpic" ? I have version 9 and 10 of the Katana SDK, and it's nowhere to be found. My programmers instinct tell me that this is a VERY IMPORTANT library for successful compilation, and initialization. Either way I need this as I feel this is a pretty important library. Can someone point me in the proper direction of it ?

Shcnpic.lib is the SH2 standard library variant that's not built for position-independent code. It would be included with the compiler, not the SDK. Though I don't see why you'd need it - the SH2 is big-endian, while the Dreamcast is little-endian.

Gotcha !! Okay, I get it. Since I'm using the Hitachi toolchain in the Dreamcast SDK for coding for the Saturn(which is totally in the Sega documentation), mI'm assuming that the little/big endian switch is by default little endian, maybe specifying 'Big Endian' via the shc switches, I could totally fix my problem. Thanks for the clarification antime !! I'll see if this works...and if it does, the rest is a piece of cake. I'll tell you my results in 3....2.....1....
