DSLua 0.7 Source

[manu62300]

no .nds on DSLua 0.7 for launch this

I'm not sure what you're asking, but to get the latest DSLua, go to http://code.google.com/p/dslua/source . Install DevKitPro, and then PAlib. Then go to where you downloaded DSLua and type "make" in the command line.

Or just wait for the release which should be soon.

can you just make a downloadable archive? I really don't want to spend the whole day downloading each file one by one...

You don't have to spend the whole day, theres a neat little thing called svn out there which lets you download svn dirs. Check the wikipedia page of "subversion" for more info  Anywho, don't bother, it doesn't want to compile with the current makefile, so you will either have to change the makefile yourself or wait for a member of the dslua group to fix it!

Edit: Well i re-downloaded it from the link on the google page, and it compiles!

which version of DKA and PAlib and libnds? I am currently using DKA r20 and libnds 20070127 and the latest PALib...

[cools]

I used the latest of everything. The only problem being is that after I get it running, (the -PACK files wont work, use the regular DSLua.nds) there seems to be an error with the io stuff... It shows up in most emulators, except the latest desmume. I think I'll just wait for the official .7 to come out...

[Jeremysr]

You have to patch it with DLDI, but I don't know if DLDI works for emulators (there's not an emulator DLDI patch anyways.) So patch it and it should work on hardware.

[cools]

Well, your example code in Image.lua is a little off... Anyway, it is possible to run the (no -PACK) DSLua.nds in an emulator with working results. After you build 0.7, it is possible to load it with desmume 0.7.0, without a DLDI patch. The first few lines of code in Image.lua were not working (crashed on the line that called io.open(), I think it was opening the bmp). If you press X it will continue to load the jpeg, and if you press X again it will load and display the banana animation.

Thanks! and best of luck with .7!!!

I get the following errors when trying to compile 0.7 

Code:

C:\DSLua>make
make --no-print-directory -C build -f /c/DSLua/Makefile
DSFileIO.cpp
c:/devkitPro/PAlib//include/nds/arm9/PA_Sound.h: In function 'void PA_PlayFSSoundEx2(u8, u16, u8, int, s16, BOOL, int)':
c:/devkitPro/PAlib//include/nds/arm9/PA_Sound.h:212: error: invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'u32*'
c:/devkitPro/PAlib//include/nds/arm9/PA_Sound.h: In function 'void PA_PlayFSMod(u16)':

make[1]: *** [DSFileIO.o] Error 1
make: *** [build] Error 2

Am I doing something wrong? or is it a problem with the latest SVN? 

Edit:
Nevermind, fixed it  , compiled successfully

Hi,
I try to build DSLua 0.7 from its source files. I got the latest devkitpro from devKitProUpdater-1.4.4 and the latest PALib (PALib070615).
I got the following error (I have removed warnings):

Code:

C:\devkitPro\dslua\DSLUA>make

make[1]: *** [DSLConnection.o] Error 1
make: *** [build] Error 2

In my C:\devkitPro\libnds\include\sys\socket.h header, i got this prototype:

Code:

extern int close(int socket);

It's strange I was thinking the latest devkitpro have changed this prototype to closesocket.
Where is my mistake?
Thanks,

no good for my M3 CF the DSLua 0.7 but 0.6 is good
