Yes you are right it's "onChar"

LOL I'm so stupid, I didn't think of doing a loop.

Ok your code works, it just seems you have to do

rootWindow->onChar(i)

instead of

rootWindow->onKeyDown(i)

unicode is important, or you'll be limited to type MAJ only,
you are using MGui.2 with the current branch of Maratis as a plugin yes ?
(current branch is ASCII, when the new experimental branch is unicode)

Anyway, some development is needed.

The only thing you can do right now is to access ASCII characters and special keys one by one :

char name[2] = {0, 0};

// A to Z
for(int i=65; i<=90; i++)
{
    name[0] = i;
    if(input->onKeyDown(name))
        rootWindow->onChar(i);
}

// 0 to 9
for(int i=48; i<=57; i++)
{
    name[0] = i;
    if(input->onKeyDown(name))
        rootWindow->onChar(i);
}

// special keys
if(input->onKeyDown("UP"))
    rootWindow->onKeyDown(MKEY_UP);
if(input->onKeyDown("DOWN"))
    rootWindow->onKeyDown(MKEY_DOWN);
if(input->onKeyDown("LEFT"))
    rootWindow->onKeyDown(MKEY_LEFT);
if(input->onKeyDown("RIGHT"))
    rootWindow->onKeyDown(MKEY_RIGHT);

if(input->onKeyDown("BACKSPACE"))
    rootWindow->onKeyDown(MKEY_BACKSPACE);
if(input->onKeyDown("ENTER"))
    rootWindow->onKeyDown(MKEY_RETURN);
if(input->onKeyDown("SPACE"))
    rootWindow->onKeyDown(MKEY_SPACE);

// and do the same with onKeyDown

not pretty and not the best, but we'll add a better automatic way at some point.

I'm using the experimental branch. But what has Unicode anything to do anyway, I just need to type A-Z and 0-9.
The point is that I would have to do if key==A then send A, if key==B then send B, etc

yes right now a better mechanism is needed to feed the character events,
the trunk version of Maratis doesn't really support unicode like the new experimental branch.

I'll think about something, maybe committing the unicode fix in the trunk.

How do you use MGuiEditText?
I cannot type something in it because something like this does not exist:

if(input->onKeyDown("ANY"))
   rootWindow->onKeyDown(input->currentlyPressedCharacter);

The 3 additional external scripts (freeimage, freetype & glfw) are not modified (as they require no linking). They are located in the 'Projects' folder.

So you can test now without hesitation !

I am going to have to wait to test, looks like there are some additional premake4.lua scripts needed (freeimage, and a couple of others I take it.).

Very nice com3D and thank you for taking on premake and getting it to build Maratis for us. I tried for awhile but the thirdparty libs gave me alot of trouble, not use to that as a linux user.

Re: MGui "v2" news

A few tests:

LINUX
- build using make & GCC 4.6.3
- build using Code::Blocks 12.11 & GCC 4.6.3

- binaries on Ubuntu Precise:
- binaries on Slackware 14:

WINDOWS
- build using vs2010 : cf above
- build using minGW : cf above

Yes Zester,

I've pushed a linux fix to the premake template for experimental branch in the issue tracker.
See issue #20 here, you can download the file.

Re: MGui "v2" news

dummy@example.com (zester) — Mon, 14 Oct 2013 21:22:31 +0000

Are you uploading your premake scripts some-wheres? I want to look at adding network(enet?) support tonight. And see about getting Maratis in Qt4 QGLWidget.

With visual studio, these errors remain:

freeimage:
c:\...\branches\experimental\3rdparty\freeimage\source\zlib\zconf.h(447): fatal error C1083: Impossible d'ouvrir le fichier include : 'unistd.h' : No such file or directory

Windows complains not finding a POSIX header!
MinGW has its own version of this header, that's why I didn't get this error previously.

mcommon:
..\..\Sources\Common\Loaders\FreeImage\MFreeImageLoader.cpp(81): error C2440: '=' : impossible de convertir de 'unsigned int (__cdecl *)(void *,unsigned int,unsigned int,fi_handle)' en 'FI_ReadProc'
Cette conversion requiert reinterpret_cast, un cast de style C ou un cast de style fonction

Test:
I have to include to resolve sleep issue
