Posted: Tue Feb 10, 2009 3:25 am Post subject: RemoteJoyLite port to Linux based system |
|
|
Hello Everyone,
So I am in love with Tyranid RemoteJoyLite program. Unfortunately, the program is written for windows platform (with evil MFC functions). Apparently there is no port (yet) for Linux system.
Probably someone needs to start doing it. I have already set up my psptoolchain on my Ubuntu 9.10 and have written couple of simple homebrew programs. Now What I would like to do is to port RemoteJoyLite to Linux.
So:
1) is Tyranid okay with me doing it?
2) is Anyone willing to help?
Thanks _________________ 404 not found |

RemoteJoyLite is not mine, well the basic core is but it is actually implemented as a standalone thing by a Japanese guy (who doesn't even give me any credit, ah well :P).
Knock yourself out :) Of course as far as I know it _might_ be compatible with the basic RemoteJoySDL application anyway, maybe... |

Pity that people don't give credits where it is due :(
I actually never thought of using it with the basic remotejoySDL. I will try it and let you know how it goes. _________________ 404 not found |

| What library is the joystick.h in? I can't compile it under cygwin even after installing every remotely related lib I could find. |

Now I am not too sure about it. This looks like it is from DirectX/DirectInput library (I am not too sure though) _________________ 404 not found |

It uses SDL. |

after running the command "locate joystick.h" on my linux machine, that's what I found
| Code: |
/usr/include/SDL/SDL_joystick.h
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.27-11/include/linux/joystick.h
.
.

So apparently it is a linux include file. _________________ 404 not found |

| Do you know which library that's from? It seems to come stock with Linux distros. |

It might be the libc6-dev.
usually when you run a "build essential" command in Ubuntu all those are installed automatically, so I didn't catch the name of the lib.
Edit: it is linux-libc-dev _________________ 404 not found |

Last I checked it was dependant on some windows libraries, but I might take a gander into it as well, I'll post if I find anything useful. _________________ Programming with:
