libogc

im new to coding i've set up devkit. i just dont know what libogc is. could someone tell me what it is used for in simple way

Libogc is a set of tools(libraries) that are used to program the wii. If you want to learn how to code for the wii you don't need to know too much about how it works. If you have never coded before learn c on your computer first, then move to the wii. If you already know c then go to codemii.com and there are a few tutorials there about wii programming.

how are you supposed to use those libaries

the same way you use libc.

If you're just wondering how to write a basic program, then you don't have to worry too much about the libraries and libogc, the Makefile handles most of that stuff. Basically, libogc is a "folder" that contains all the libraries (like "libwiiuse" for the use of the wiimote) and the headers that contain all of the functions. If you want to find out more about libogc, you can visit the Wiibrew Page.

is there a tutorial to use libogc

libogc = wii programing. If you want to learn to program for the wii go to codemii.com. There are some tutorials there

I just checked the Codemii tutorials and they seem to be for the Gamecube even though it states that they are "Wii Programming Tutorials". There are many more tutorials on the net if you want to see them and you could also check the pre-made examples that come with devkitPro.

If you read through the tutorials you'll find that they start off by showing how it works for the gamecube, and then showing how it works for the wii. It shouldn't be too hard to understand if you have a good understanding of C. If not, the tutorial tries to teach it, but you would be better off learning it on your computer first.

codemii was helpful for learning basics of coding and converting codes for gc to wii
