LJP Source

[zakaqere]

Hi everyone , I am playing around with the rc2 source files and using PODS. If anyone wants to talk I'm here. I am going to start looking up makefiles and other things related to desktop environments as I am coming from OnBoardC. I would stay there if it could compile pnolets and had code optimization. So tonight I Will start converting the project to PODS. I will be happy to hear thoughts of others.

you're a developer and you want any tester
here you found one.

[Tinnus]

I'll just say you'll have a really hard time converting the code to PODS. And, I must say, not worth it since all of the base code (ie: the stuff you would change) is being... er, soon will be completely re-written.

[zakaqere]

why is there a PGP encrypted file?
\ljp-1.0-rc2_src\LJP-GB\fgb\etc\laguna.pgp

[Tinnus]

No idea. I can only say I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with the emulator code and it's not necessary for it to work or anything...

It seems to be from the original fgb emulator.

[zakaqere]

Hmm... Interesting... I just discovered that PODS is incapable of compiling in ARM language. That would probably REALLY hinder my efforts. At least that is what the documentation says... Yet the protein application builds. Puzzling

[Tinnus]

Do not even bother about Protein and Cobalt...

It can do ARM though. Check PEAL and such.

[zakaqere]

How do I do that? And I don't need something to load an armlet I have no trouble using pcenativecall(). Obviously the docs won't be much help here. I would link you to the docs so you could see but I was using the help viewer. Also, how do you bypass the ugly PACE layer

YAY!!! ;D I discovered how to get PODS to compile PNO!! No thanks to the "official" documentation. It said I had to use another compiler. It suggested ARM Developer Suite or gcc. GCC isn't exactly user friendly and ADS sounds like it costs one metric tonne of gold coins. Anyway, I found it by cruising through the project files. Of a managed mane pno project.

And have you ever used OnBoardC or any of the palm's compilers/interpreters that run on the pilot?

Last thing: Tinnus your home site gives me a 'not found' a DNS error perhaps? Or is the site still up at all?

[Tinnus]

lj.twg.org/ works. The news are still broken though, didnt bother to fix them yet

Never tried OnBoard-Anything. Usually that means you get a stripped-version of whatever, and I don't think this is good for more than cool-to-play-with stuff like hello world. Can't say for certain since I never tried of course ;D

Well, I don't think you could get a LJP done with it

How the heck do you build this thing? I got CW 9.3 on here but I get various linker problems, missing headers(a couple of which I found), I guess I don't even know what group to compile first.

What depends on what, is it already set up? Why do I get a 'winDisplayChangedEvent' not defined in the ydk code when I'm sure it must be there somewhere. If I #define _PACE_ it builds past that, but that doesn't answer my question

What all is required, any external libs, anything I need to compile in order or paths that I need to change(I already know about the Zodiac SDK paths and the MSL lib paths).

I'm kinda new to this ARMlet coding and even newer to CW. I'm coming from an MS Visual Studio background so this is all a little weird looking.

(btw, zakaqere, there is OnBoardARM, but its an assembler not a C compiler)

[Edit]
I think I got it. LibPalmFilters, then BuildAllPNO, then I dunno yet. Isn't there a way to auto-build dependencies?

[neko68k]

OK yeh I got it. Then LJP-multiple. But still, I get a couple of errors with pinSomething or other and uh, winDisplayHasChangedEvent and one more I cant remember. Looks like it all has to do with virtual silkscreen or something ~shrug~

[Tinnus]

Try to #include <PenInputMgr.h> (or " " instead of < >) and/or updating your Palm OS SDK.
