There is a library called pspGL, it is an emulation layer of OpenGL over the native pspGU library. pspGU is a GL like library that uses the native hardware for rendering but has no memory management, so all the texture functions of OpenGL are not there and this pspGL tries to emulate the OpenGL api and maps to the pspGU api. I've compiled and linked against pspGL and the compile step works i now need to create some simple demo to see if it real works, that's why i said that in theory it should work.

Paulo, Hello and welcome to PLIB. There are a couple of things that are relevant to your effort: (1) PLIB is pretty much finished with its development. I don't think there have been any significant changes in a few years. (2) That said, the "P" stands for "Portable," and any new platforms would be welcomed. (3) On the other hand, I am told that Steve Baker (the owner and prime developer of PLIN) is working on a "Son of PLIB" that will break backwards compatibility and generally change everything. Right now it's a private project of his in the sense that he hasn't released any source, but I don't know what his future plans are. So between all of that, you will have to make your decision about what to do. I am quite interested in merging your changes into the trunk, but I will need Steve's permission to do so. The part of PLIB that I am most familiar with is PUI. I notice it isn't on your list of finished ports. If you have any questions about PUI--and I'm somewhat familiar with several other libraries in PLIB as well, although SSG is beyond me--please feel free to ask them and I will see what I can do to answer them.

OK, better late than never. I've put the changes into SVN, but since I don't have a BSD box I will need somebody to test the new version.

Sorry about the delay, but I have just put the patch in.

Subject: [Plib-devel] netScoket patch for Mac OS X Hi there, Ever since Mac OS X 10.5.2, netSocket.h/cxx have got compilation errors due to changes in sockaddr_in. Thus I made a very simple patch to avoid this problem (I guess Apple cut out the backward compatibility of sockaddr_in, but not so sure on this). Though I think netSocket should encapsulate the sockaddr_in in smarter way like having sockaddr_in inside netSocket class, I didn't try that because of my lack of time. Anyway, please apply this patch to svn. I believe this patch won't affect any other platforms but feedbacks from other platforms are very welcome. PLIB with this patch also works on Mac OS 10.5.1 or earlier including 10.4.x. Best Regards, Tat << File: PLIB-MacOSX-SockAddrIn.diff >> << File: ATT00001.txt >> << File: ATT00002.txt >> |

Well - removal of the comment is maybe cosmetic, but assuming that it

the change makes it no longer punted. If it applies to hat switches,
it should be reinstated to hopefully give someone else a good itch.

Miguel, Hello and welcome to the PLIB community. You have in fact already gotten in contact with the PLIB developers. The primary developer of PLIB is Steve Baker. He has been quite busy with other projects lately and hasn't had a lot of time to devote to PLIB in the last several years. I've been associated with parts of PLIB (particularly PUI) for quite some time, and while I am familiar with the "net" library I don't consider myself to be the authority there. As such, I cannot speak to the design decisions that were made there. (If I may speak freely, I will say that the "This is a piece of garbage, who wrote this stuff" tone doesn't seem calculated to raise a positive response.) There has been a bit of an exchange here recently about a "PLIB 2" which would break backwards compatibility with PLIB and would be a whole new development. I daresay the developers of "PLIB 2" would be willing to hear suggestions about how to make the new "net" portable. - John F.

Hi,
Sorry for cross posting, but the plib-users mailing list seems to be mute.
I've come across plib several times as it is used as a base for several other
projects.
In this case, I came across this problem when trying to get FlightGear to work on FreeBSD;
whenever I tried to have it create a socket, it failed. I found out that it was failing with
the following error: Address family not supported by protocol family.
That's the message for EAFNOSUPPORT.
So, I checked the file src/net/netSocket.h in the underlaying plib-1.8.4, and found out
that a wrapper class is being used for sockaddr_in, the netAddress class (line 50 of the said
file).
I was a bit chocked by seeing that the layout of a structure which is supposed to be
internal to the OS was being reproduced in the layout of netAddress. The code is
as follows:
class netAddress
{
/* DANGER!!! This MUST match 'struct sockaddr_in' exactly! */
short sin_family ;
unsigned short sin_port ;
unsigned int sin_addr ;
char sin_zero [ 8 ] ;
Well, I cannot guess what reason took plib's designers to choose this strategy,
it would seem safer to me if a member variable of the type sockaddr_in existed inside
the netAddress class.
That way, the code would be protected from any differences in the layout of
sockaddr_in of different OSes.
All I can say is that in FreeBSD, the layout of sockaddr_in does not match that
structure. On FreeBSD, we have:
/* Socket address, internet style. */
struct sockaddr_in {
uint8_t sin_len;
sa_family_t sin_family;
in_port_t sin_port;
struct in_addr sin_addr;
char sin_zero[8];
};
Of course, FreeBSD headers themselves are isolated from changes in the types
sa_family_t, etc... In practice, the only thing that differs is that the
two byte sin_family member is split into two members of one byte each, sin_len
and sin_family.
Because the i386 is a LSB first machine, filling the sin_family member of the
netAddress class will end up filling the sin_len member of sockaddr_in instead
of the sin_family member.
Therefore, any operations involving plib-1.8.4, AF_INET sockets and FreeBSD 7
fail with EAFNOSUPPORT. QED.
For my part, I would be happier if this would change, so I could play FlightGear
right out-of-the-ports-collection. Anyway, I'm curious about the rationale
behind this design issue. Could it be to avoid including OS specific headers?

Hi,
on my Ubuntu Gutsy box, configure && make works without any trouble:
checking for pthread_create in -lpthread... yes
checking for glNewList in -lGL... yes
But I can recall that I experienced similar problems when I compiled
CRRCsim on Gutsy for the first time. I then decided to remove these
libs from the (very old) Makefiles and never really missed them.
Kind regards,
Jan R.
PS: By the way, configure && make and the examples also work fine on
Windows XP (using MinGW & MSYS).
PPS: The SourceForge project page (http://sourceforge.net/projects/plib/)
still shows 1.8.5-rc1 as the most recent release.

Anton,
Does the PLIB that you build without the X libraries link
properly with a sample program? PLIB itself is just a library and
doesn't really need a final link step where everything must be defined;
the real test of when libraries are needed comes in building an
application.

Subject: [Plib-devel] plib 1.8.5 won't pass the autoconf phase in
UbuntuGutsy
Hi there,
I'm having problems to build plib 1.8.5 from sources due to a problem in
autoconf. This is an Ubuntu Gutsy Linux distro with proper Mesa GL and
pthreads installation. This is how the error looks from the outside:
<snip>
The problem in this installation was libxi-dev and libxmu-dev packages
where not installed. But also, by replacing line 279 in config.in
LIBS="$LIBS $X_PRE_LIBS -lXi -lXmu -lXext -lX11 $X_EXTRA_LIBS
-lm"
to something like this:
LIBS="$LIBS $X_PRE_LIBS $X_LIBS $X_EXTRA_LIBS -lm"
The compilation went smooth as silk. Maybe those libs are not really
needed?
Kind regards,
Anton
