Are all of those PSP specific, or C in general?

NVM: Some are, some aren't.

We're going to start by supposing you already have cygwin and the pspsdk installed (of course if you use linux you don't need cygwin).

If not you'll need to install them using the following tutorial: http://www.psp-programming.com/tutorials/c/lesson01.htm
The first step is to open cygwin and type in the following line:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/pspdev/bin

You can also do this by editing the file .bashrc that is in the folder home/user where you have cygwin installed.

When you type tat you're telling the enviroment where the pspsdk directory is, which is necessary to compile the SDL library and be able to use it. Next, we'll go into the toolchain folder and type the following lines one at a time and then just wait:

cd /trunk/SDL

./autogen.sh

LDFLAGS=”-L$(psp-config –-pspsdk-path)/lib -lc -lpspuser” ./configure --host psp --prefix=$(psp-config –-psp-prefix)

make

make install


If you've done everything right you should have SDL installed, now we're going to do the rest of the libraries, we are going to continue by installing SDL_image.

SDL_image needs other libraries to work, zlib, libpng and jpeg, so we'll install those first, we're going to type the following:

cd ..

cd /trunk/zlib

make

make install


now lets do libpng

cd ..

cd /trunk/libpng

make

make install


and last we need jpeg

cd ..

cd/trunk/jpeg

make

make install

Now that we have the libraries to install SDL image lets get to it:

cd ..

cd /trunk/SDL_image

./autogen.sh

LDFLAGS=”-L$(psp-config --pspsdk-path)/lib -lc -lpspuser” ./configure --host psp --with-sdl-prefix=$(psp-config –-psp-prefix) –prefix=$(psp-config –-psp-prefix)

make

make install



Now that SDL_image and it's dependant libraries are installed, we're going to do SDL_mixer.

This library also needs others which are, SDL, libogg, libtremor y libvorbis, we'll satrt with libogg and lubtremor

cd ..

cd /trunk/libogg

LDFLAGS=”-L$(psp-config --pspsdk-path)/lib -lc -lpspuser” ./autogen.sh --host psp --prefix=$(psp-config --psp-prefix)

make

make install


now lets do libtremor

cd ..

cd /trunk/libTremor

LDFLAGS=”-L$(psp-config --pspsdk-path)/lib -lc -lpspuser” ./autogen.sh --host psp --prefix=$(psp-config --psp-prefix)

make

make install


now SDL_mixer

cd..

cd /trunk/SDL_mixer

./autogen.sh

LDFLAGS=”-L$(psp-config --pspsdk-path)/lib -lc -lpspuser” ./configure --host psp --with-sdl-prefix=$(psp-config --psp-prefix) –disable-music-mp3 --prefix=$(psp-config –-psp-prefix)

make

make install


last we're going to install SDL_gfx which we'll use to put in text, make rotations and much more

cd ..

cd /trunk/SDL_gfx

AR=psp-ar

LDFLAGS=”-L$(psp-config --pspsdk-path)/lib -lc -lpspuser” ./configure --host psp --with-sdl-prefix=$(psp-config --psp-prefix) –prefix=$(psp-config --psp-prefix) --disable-mmx --disable-shared

make

make install


NOw we have all the SDL libraries instaled, we're just missing the last one, SDL_ttf, this library is for putting text on the screen using ttf fonts, but since I don't use it I leave it up to you to install it.

You just need to read the README.PSP and you'll have instructions on compiling the library, lets say the library depends on freetype, that means you need to install freetype first and then SDL_ttf.


Hope you enjoyed the tutorial

Translated by me yay

[TNR360]

Updated with new format: easyer to read.


@TNR360: Can you please post a link to that tutorial?

what do you mean?

I translated it right here on the forum

you could post it on the tutorial section and link to it from here though

[Soulkiller]

Don't you think this should be in the general PSP section?
