Opening a simple window using AmigaOS3.1 style API

Code

#include <proto/exec.h>
#include <proto/dos.h>
#include <proto/intuition.h>
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  if (!DOSBase) return RETURN_FAIL;
  if (!IntuitionBase) return RETURN_FAIL;
 
  struct Window *win;
  struct TagItem tags[] =
            {
                { WA_Width,  200                    },
                { WA_Height, 100                    },
                { WA_Title,  (IPTR) "Simple Window" },
                { TAG_DONE,  0UL                    }
            };
 
  win = OpenWindowTagList(NULL, tags);
 
  if (!win) return RETURN_FAIL;
 
  Delay(100);
  CloseWindow(win);
 
  return RETURN_OK;
}

Result
