Example wont complile about grrlib

[Crayon2000]

oh is there something I need to update?

I'm not sure, try pacman -Syu

[Crayon2000]

I don't see any problems with GRRLIB. It seems that a bunch of function called hb_* cannot be found. I have no idea what they are! The file containing those function seems to be missing in the source folder, so it's not built. If this is your code, add it to the source folder or change the Makefile.

Its the example code you would find on the github. same issue with the wii.

[Crayon2000]

It looks like a problem with freetype.

1. Are you using the latest GRRLIB version from: https://github.com/GRRLIB/GRRLIB/releases/latest

2. Did you install freetype with this command:
   pacman --sync --needed --noconfirm libfat-ogc ppc-libpng ppc-freetype ppc-libjpeg-turbo

3. Can you try do clean before building with make clean && make

[Manciv]

1. Yep I installed it yesterday!

[Crayon2000]

Does your Makefile in 3D_Light1 has this line:

LIBS	:=	-lgrrlib -lpngu `$(PREFIX)pkg-config freetype2 libpng libjpeg --libs` -lfat -lwiiuse -lbte -logc -lm

It was updated recently in this commit 8f34054

[Manciv]

yea thats the one that is currently in place.

[Crayon2000]

Can you try to install harfbuzz: pacman --sync --needed --noconfirm ppc-harfbuzz
And try to build the example again after.

[Manciv]

warning: ppc-harfbuzz-8.2.0-2 is up to date -- skipping
there is nothing to do

[Crayon2000]

For some reason I have:

warning: ppc-freetype-2.13.2-3 is up to date -- skipping

And you have:

warning: ppc-freetype-2.13.2-2 is up to date -- skipping

The pkgrel (2 vs 3) makes a difference for the requirements for harfbuzz in freetype. See this commit in devkitpro: devkitPro/pacman-packages@6908c0b

I have no idea why pacman is not installing 2.13.2-3 on you PC. Maybe for some reason there is a difference between Windows (you) and Linux (me).

[Manciv]

oh is there something I need to update?

[Manciv]

That seems to have done it. Thank you. if there is anywhere I can make a financial contribution let me know.

Thank you!
