Updates on my dll experiment

[davy]

Here is the c++ for it...

/// Remove decimal ///
void DLLFUNC Func_NoDecimal(IDLL_Basic4GL_Runtime &basic4gl) {
const float in = basic4gl.GetFloatParam(1);
float result;
result = ((int)in);
basic4gl.SetFloatResult(result);
}


/// Leave decimal only ///
void DLLFUNC Func_Decimal(IDLL_Basic4GL_Runtime &basic4gl) {
const float in = basic4gl.GetFloatParam(1);
float result;
result = in-((int)in);
basic4gl.SetFloatResult(result);
}

Excellent

I wont count that as a new version, more of a mid version. But it has the rest of the commands plus the Decimal() and NoDecimal() commands.

ae you gonna update for basic 2.4.3

[davy]

I guess if anyone wants the commands... But I've been working on a lot of other stuff lately so I'll probably drop that experiment.

i remebered a while ago tom taught you how to do opengl in a plugin how do you that?

[davy]

You just have to include the headers and link them in the compiler. I dont remember which ones, I usually just include...


#include <gl\gl.h>
#include <gl\glu.h>


and then I link the "opengl32" and "glu32" libraries.

[James :) (aka Madcow)]

oh then you can type the code you type in bsic4gl

[davy]

You can create functions and commands FOR basic4gl USING c++

[James :) (aka Madcow)]

i know but the opengl code

[davy]

You can use OpenGL, yeah... OpenGL IS OpenGL, it's syntax is the same no matter what its implimented on (unless its a poor implimentation) but Tom wrote basic4gl very true to the OpenGL syntax... Just remember that casing matters in c++


GLbegin(gl_quads)


is not the same as


glBegin(GL_QUADS)


and you have to put a ";" after each command...


glBegin(GL_QUADS);


[James :) (aka Madcow)]

ok so that was why codeblocks was complaining

[davy]

Yeah, c++ is also case sensitive about variable names... For instance...


#include <iostream>

int main(){
   float x;
   float X;
   x=10.5;
   X=3.25;

   std::cout << (x+X);
   return 0;
}


Would actually be two variables, x and X.

yeap
