menu library Hello, I'd like to build a menu thath look like the home brew channel only to start to build an application! Could you give me some infos and/or links could suppot my request?

Ah. Well, you can't include C++ files in C - but you can do the reverse. Leave all the code the same, and just renaming the file with your main() - usb.c? to usb.cpp

The C code gets compiled as C++, but will work the same.

If you really want to compile C stuff into a C++ project as C, just wrap your C code like this (see oggplayer.h for an example - [code.google.com]):

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
{
#endif

// your C code

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

Perfect...now all is working good....

Another question....is it possible to draw an image rotate using the z axis?]]> trottolo CodingTue, 14 Apr 2009 18:14:29 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13951#msg-13951 Re: menu libraryhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13951#msg-13951

Another stuff...

I did an application now I developped in another project the gui....so now I put in the source directory of my application(in a subdirectory called gui) the file and directory of develloped in parrallel.

when I include the gui/gui.h of my application I did this error when compiling

why? is there a mistake in the makefile?

Yes, likely you didn't modify your LIBS line to add the libs from the template.
Also your SOURCES line should include source AND source/gui

I already did both...but nothing...the same errors...I put directly your makefile adding source/gui

SOURCES := source source/gui source/gui/libwiigui source/gui/images source/gui/fonts source/gui/sounds
INCLUDES := source/gui source


but nothing....

any ideas?

P.s. If you have time I found out that if you create a simple c file with a main in the source folder and you copy all the stuffs in a gui subfolder and rename the main function in the demo.cpp ....if you link the simple c file (with the main) to the demo you will have the same error I did (insert #include gui/demo.h)

why?]]> trottolo CodingSat, 11 Apr 2009 19:46:18 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13946#msg-13946 Re: menu libraryhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13946#msg-13946

ok!!!!!!!!!

this issue was making me crazy!

Is there a plan to include all the resolution format?
Is there a plan to include jpg?
Is there a plan to have the stretch functionality in the imageData class?

Thx
Amedeo

If you have feature requests, feel free to submit them to Google Code: [code.google.com]

Stretch and jpg shouldn't be hard. But the reason I personally didn't want/need JPG, is because PNG is much better suited for GUI purposes. Files are small, and it supports an alpha channel (transparency). Resolution format is a matter for PNGU, but it is possible to add more support.]]> Tantric CodingSat, 11 Apr 2009 18:42:20 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13945#msg-13945 Re: menu libraryhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13945#msg-13945

Solved....the problem was that i forgot to do a make install after copying!

Ok....I'm using libwiigui that is very nice and complete....I have a big bug!!!

there are some png that I can display and some other that I can't...I don't understan what is the pèroblem!!!

the png fie should have some particular properties?

Thx
Amedeo

Ps this is the code

GuiImageData prv_l(prv_png);
GuiImage prvLeftBtnImg(&prv_l);
GuiButton prvLeftBtn( prvLeftBtnImg.GetWidth(), prvLeftBtnImg.GetHeight());
prvLeftBtn.SetPosition((screenwidth-prvLeftBtnImg.GetWidth())/2,(screenheight-80-prvLeftBtnImg.GetHeight())/2);
prvLeftBtn.SetImage(&prvLeftBtnImg);
prvLeftBtn.SetSoundOver(&btnSoundOver);
prvLeftBtn.SetTrigger(&trigA);
prvLeftBtn.SetEffectGrow();


changing only the name file (prv_png in another) it is working..... why?]]> trottolo CodingSat, 11 Apr 2009 07:33:28 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13417#msg-13417 Re: menu libraryhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13417#msg-13417 trottolo CodingSun, 05 Apr 2009 22:11:58 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13407#msg-13407 Re: menu libraryhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13407#msg-13407 trottolo CodingSun, 05 Apr 2009 19:13:00 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13378#msg-13378 Re: menu libraryhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13378#msg-13378

You can use mine: [www.wiibrew.org]

Or MetaFights: [www.wiibrew.org]

You'll find mine to be customizable (AKA skinnable) without looking at the source (See Wii Shooting Gallery) and MetaFights to look a little more professional (remember mine can be easily customized to look like MetaFights). I recommend you try out the demos of both before deciding which one to use.

Also, while MetaFight uses no external libraries for his library, mine requires the use of either libwiisprite or GRRLIB. Both Home Menu libraries are open source still under active development.]]> Arikado CodingThu, 02 Apr 2009 13:28:12 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13029#msg-13029 menu libraryhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,13029,13029#msg-13029
