Emulator

OOOOH interesting.
Sounds like something i may be able to put to gether.

Ok
I've started work on it :)
Wish me luck

Basics have being completed.
Just need to do all the actually checking stuff.

Ok cool thanks I'll look into that now :)

Made some more process

Maybe you should attach a patch with the code?

Here it is

Only problem is there is a lot of the checking stuff incomplete (Not there)

It looks good, but leave all the unimportant bits of the vcproj files out of the
patch next time (everything except the line 1109 and 1161 changes is unnecessary).

I'll commit it when it's done.

Oh, and you forgot the InfoWindow files...

Ahh woops sorry

Ok here is the patch with the InfoWindow files.
No more updates tho

Don't work.

It should build and work properly.
At least on Windows

errr...I clicked on Tools > System Information, and nothing happened...how does it work?

A window should pop up!

Here is a version with no edits(Like removed stuff from vcproj edits)

Still doesn't work...

Just for curiosity's sake, what's with the glext.h stuff?

OK, I got it to work...it was some stuff with the infowindow files getting patched
twice (my mistake).

But still, does the patch have to be that big? Is glext.h necessary?

BTW, it looks great so far :)

I think i glext.h there for something but i never ended up using it.
Oh yeah glex stand for OpenGL Extention

OK, I committed it for you.

Now make it more detailed :)

Ok will do!

Progress might speed up a bit i think i mannaged to fix a problem disallowing me to
do some stuff.

Maybe not I'm still running into problems

Here is the patch with some things neatened up.
It also has the problematic bit but i commented that out.
Its to do with summarize_settings

'summarize_settings' should be 'summarize_settings()', methinks...

Well that fixed one problem :)

now i just have this

3>.\Src\InfoWindow.cpp(73) : error C2110: '+' : cannot add two pointers
3>.\Src\InfoWindow.cpp(74) : error C2110: '+' : cannot add two pointers
3>.\Src\InfoWindow.cpp(75) : error C2110: '+' : cannot add two pointers
3>.\Src\InfoWindow.cpp(76) : error C2110: '+' : cannot add two pointers

Ok I've got lots of Dolphin Setting checking stuff
But i need someone to find out why the text isn't showing up.
All the checking is there its just not showing the answers!

Ok here is the newest version with most of the action reply remnants removed

Good job. I'll see if I can get the OGL options added sometime today, but you're
welcome to try if you want.

In the mean time, please note that using #include is probably a no-no for a
multi-platform app...

(but it's not needed, so I wouldn't worry about it)

Anyway, the problem is with the conversion from 'const bool' to 'string' or 'const
char *'. It seems that it simply can't be done.

Any help here?

And here's my patch (same as yours, just with some better formatting and other minor
things).

Ah ok I'll look into it.
Also thanks for that new patch :)

I found a few things but they all require .net

I'd suggest you to use a wxDIALOG instead of a wxFRAME to avoid having an ugly grey
background, and also move it from "Tools" to "Help" maybe ?

I may try after I've got this other problem sorted out.
Any help is appreciated!

I will clean it up and make it compile on linux give me 30minutes or so:)

fixed linux build in r3076, added a few improvements

Many thanks :)

Thanks all for fixing my work up and making it better :P

Ok I've got some more things done!
I'll upload the changes when I've done some more.

Ok the grahpics stuff is going to be harder then i thought.
Because when iver i call stuff from it it comes up with an error on build

Here is the error

3>InfoWindow.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "struct Config g_Config"
(?g_Config@@3UConfig@@A)
3>../../../Binary/Win32/Dolphin.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

And the patch with the error in it

I forget what causes unresolved externals...but I'll look into it.

this was the best I could find...It might help, but it might not. I couldn't fix the
error.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f6xx1b1z(VS.71).aspx

unresolved external is that g_Config is never defined as far as InfoWindow can tell

Gaaah really?
Quite odd :(.
I'll look into it :)

I think i might just create a work around :)

Ok i think my work around works :)

Confirmed it does work :)
Just need to add in all the checking stuff

InfoWindow.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "struct Config g_Config"
(?g_Config@@3UConfig@@A)

It doesn't works.

It's not ment to :P
I haven't uploaded the latest working one yet XD

Finished OpenGl setting's checking.(with some bugs)

Started work on Direct 3d

Ok OpenGL and Direct 3d has being completed but there are small bugs that need fixing
(To do with integers)

yep, that's a workaround for sure, doesn't look really good though :p

about your integers problems, it's because you're passing an integer to "%s" which
waits for a string, use "%d" instead, also, to retrieve resolution setting for
DirectX, you'll need to refer to the resolution list (you can just copy it to an
array) because the resolution setting is an integer..

err...that workaround goes against everything to do with nonredundant code and the
rest...

We really should find a better way, but I'll commit it for now (after I've tested
it).

sl1nk3.s using %d makes the int's return some weird stuff or causes the dolphin to
crash when the window is opened.

Found that out before when i was trying to get them to work

Yeah, I tried doing that, too when I was attempting an array for the languages...all
I could get was "Dolphin.exe encountered a problem and needs to close" or a bunch of
numbers.

then you're http://www.doingitwrong.com/ :p

lol.

but do you know how I should be doing it ?

Well, r3083 didn't meet with a very warm welcome...

hrydgard suggested that "One solution would be to add a GetConfigString function to
the plugins, if you really think this is a feature we need."

I think I know what he's talking about, but it I think it would also be broken by
"unresolved external"...

I don't think it would fix the unresolved external problem either. :P
I'll try and get it fixed so it doesn't require my work around XD

good luck (you'll need it!) :)

Sure will. :P
I don't even know why its coming up with the problem!

Are there anymore things you'd like to add to this?

Because this might be another issue that can be closed. :P
