Am I such a loser in math? I call this function

Code:

---

void drawScrollableList(list_entry * list, int list_len, int selected, int selected_pos, int x, int y)
{
        int i, pos;
        long scroll_height, scroll_pos;
        int start = selected+1 - selected_pos;
        int max_items = (list_len > 13) ? 13 : list_len;


        // Draw List
        for(pos=0,i==start; pos<max_items; i++,pos++)
        {
                if(i==selected)
                {
                        blitImageToScreen(0, 0, 225, 20, img_highlight, x, y+pos*20);
                        printTextScreen(x+9, y+5+pos*20, list[i].label, RGB(255,255,255));
                } else {
                        blitImageToScreen(0, 0, 6, 11, img_arrow, x+213, y+5+pos*20);
                        printTextScreen(x+9, y+5+pos*20, list[i].label, RGB(0,0,0));
                }
        }
        [...]
}

---

with

Code:

---

        list_entry main_menu[5];
        main_menu[0].label = "Music";
        main_menu[1].label = "Videos";
        main_menu[2].label = "Settings";
        main_menu[3].label = "Shuffle Songs";
        main_menu[4].label = "Now Playing";

        drawScrollableList(main_menu, 5, 1, 2, 0, 6);

---

To me, this should make start = 1+1-2 = 0, but he prints a list from item 1 (Videos) to 5 (cryptic chars). Why?
-= Double Post =-
This is crazy! I just changed the line

Code:

---

int start = selected+1 - selected_pos;

---

to

Code:

---

int start = selected+1 - selected_pos-1;

---

and he still prints that list from 1 to 5!

^^ an just in the momen I switched to the the IDE I saw it's

i==start (=true=1)

not

i=start

sorry for my stupid posts

why is that????

Your error is because you don't have graphics.c in the same directory as the rest of your files.

Your code also will not display anything as is.

U have to add filpScreen();
So your code will be:

while (x < 480) {

y += 32;

x += 32;
y = 0;
}flipScreen();
}
sceKernelSleepThread();
return 0;

how do u print something the the screan when u press X in the tiff sdk

You shouldnt be coding using an SDK if you cant read a library =-\

If you really want to print something, modify the Hello World tiff... No requests ;)

Can you try renaming your .cpp with .c and see if that fixes any errors. I highly doubt it but the PSP libraries may be for just pure C and hve no support for C++ (ie #ifdef __cplusplus extern C { #endif )

http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lit...c-and-cpp.html

it is already main.c

btw i just copied from the topic c examples;)

Oh.. I thought the smileys were pp's . In that case, you are not linking to the libraries for the usb functions.

As head_54us already stated you need to add -lpspusb -lpspusbstor to the LIBS line in your makefile.

@head54_us: The SDK does support C++, by using exactly the same method you described.

id did that(if you mean in the makefile) already ;) not working:(

Hey everyone, im a total NOOOOB at programming, but i really wanna learn. So i started on a Hello World........which probably has over 20 errors. and when i try to compile with cygwin, it said that there is no kernal.h in its library.....but i did indeed install psptoochain. Anyways heres my code. can anyone help me thanks

Code:

---


//Hello World - My first PSP Program
/*
        This program was created by me on October 21 2006
        It is a simple Hello World Application
*/

#include <pspkernal.h>
#include <pspdebug.h>

PSP_MODLUE_INFO("Hello World", 0,1,1);

#define printf pspDebugScreenPrintf

/* Exit callback */

int exit_callback(int arg1, int arg2, void *common) {
        sceKernalExitGame();
        return 0;
}

/* Callback thread */
int CallbackThread(SceSize args, void *argp) {
        int cbid;

        cbid = sceKernalCreateCallback("Exit Callback", exit_callback, NULL);

        sceKernalSleepThreadCB();

        return 0;
}

/*Sets up the callback thread and returns its thread id */
int SetupCallbacks(void) {
        int thid+ 0;

        thid = sceKernalCreateThread("update_thread", CallbackThread, 0x11, 0xFA0,0,0);

        if(thid >=0) {
                sceKernalStartThread(thid, 0, 0);

        }

        return thid;
}


//to end a line a semi colon is needed, not sure what these two blocks of code do...

pspDebugScreenInit();
SetupCallbacks();

//this prinnts Hello World to the screen


printf("Hello World i AM HERE")

//this is to make the printf appear, becuase it will just erase without it

sceKernalSleepThread();

return 0;
}

Could you post the exact output that cygwin gives you please?

Hint: Right-click on cygwin's titlebar, select edit, select mark (the top choice), mark the text you want to copy, open up the titlebar menu again and select edit then copy. Now the text you marked is on your clipboard, so simply paste it here ;)

Code:

---

PSP_MODLUE_INFO("Hello World", 0,1,1);

---

Should be:

Code:

---

PSP_MODULE_INFO("Hello World", 0,1,1);

---

Code:

---

int thid+ 0;

---

Should be:

Code:

---

int thid = 0;

---

Code:

---

printf("Hello World i AM HERE")

---

Requires a semi-colon at the end:

Code:

---

printf("Hello World i AM HERE");

---

All your references to kernal should be kernel

You're also missing:

Code:

---

int main()
{

---

before your 'printf("Hello World i AM HERE")' line.

There's probably more if I looked closer.

OMG HAHAH.....my spelling sucks poop......my bad.....cheesh kernEl... thanks.

THANK YOU IT COMPILED. and my psp actually sees it. can anyone please help me, i wanna print something to screen, and then like go to the next line when the sentence was unfinished like

this. thanks :D

You can do something like this:

Code:

---

printf("This is line 1\nThis is line 2\nThis is line 3\n");

---

Or even this:

Code:

---

printf("This is line 1\n");
printf("This is line 2\n");
printf("This is line 3\n");

---

sg57 when i do it is says error: ____ undeclared

or something like that

You have to replace ____ with an SceCtrlData struct you know... <_<

whats a struct and wich one should i choose

Insomniac, what does the n in 1/n, 2/n mean? trying it now. thhanks

edit: does not work xD. any other suggestions?

Sethis - '\n' character is *nix for 'carraige return' or 'newline'. so putting \n anywhere in a string when printingwill cause whatever is after that to go to the line below (approx. 10 pixels down...)

psp-freak222 -

Code:

#include <pspctrl.h>

...

SceCtrlData pad;

Put the slash the right way round :p

SG57 explained it well enough for me not to.

it doesnt work lol... do i put /n in side the the text being printed, or after? like this

printf ("like this /n or not");

OR like this

printf ("like this")
/n
printf ("or not?");

as i said im a total noob lol, so please help thanks
edit:
O CHEEESE LOL
... thanks insomniac, i have a dislexic problem, its not extremely bad, but can be bad lol thanks

like this:

Code:

---

printf("blah\n");

notice the backslash ;)

why isn't this working on 2.8 tiff

Code:

---

#include <pspdisplay.h>
#include <pspctrl.h>

#include "gfx.h"

int main()

        Print(1,2,RED,"X Button is working");
}
}

psp-freak222 - You ought to be shot. For one, you havent told us WHAT isnt working. Two, you arent returning a value for int main. Three, you havent supplied us with your makefile. Four, nor the errors that are spit out. Five, RED isnt defined (red in hexdecimal is: 0x000000FF). Six, you arent swapping display/draw buffer. Seven, you havent assigned the 'pad' structure to hold what buttons are pressed (vshCtrlReadBufferPositiv e(&pad,1) or something like that on 2.8). Eight, you havent any way to keep text to be printed on the screen (use an infinite loop). Nine, you havent initialized the screen and controller via iniScreenAndControl, its named something like that.

Simply put, start wwaaaayyy smaller...

Does anyone know why whenever I press the RIGHT button, I intend to make the pellet shoot from where my MegaY position is, and where my MegaX position is, and make it so that my megaPelX increases by 1 (makes it so the bullet shoots to the right), but it wont show. Im trying to make it so when I press the RIGHT button, it shoots a bullet at the certain positions (specified above) and it appears on the screen, but why wont it show???

Code:

---

    int MegaX = 27;
    int MegaY = 136;
 
    int ProtoX = 427;
    int ProtoY = 136;
 
    int megaPelX = 27;
 
    int shoot = 0;
    int currentBack = 0;

---

Code:

---

      while(1) {
      sceCtrlReadBufferPositive(&pad, 1);
   
if(pad.Buttons & PSP_CTRL_RIGHT)
{
shoot=1;
}

if(shoot==1) {
megaPelX+=1;
blitAlphaImageToScreen(0, 0, 8, 6, PelletImage, megaPelX, MegaY);
}

---

Theres more than that code but thats just for when I press the RIGHT button it shoots the bullet, but its not appearing on the screen.

Make sure you're drawing the bullet last, ie:

Draw your background.
Draw your characters.
Draw your bullet.

Order is important.
