Hi Ronie... I need help again.

In fact I am still not able to work with SDL2 events in Mac with Pharo 6 nor 7.

In Pharo 6 and Pharo 7, 32 and 64 bits I need to run this code: 'FFIExternalStructure allSubclassesDo: #rebuildFieldAccessors'. In all cases I can open the window and draw on it with Cairo, but the problems lie with the events. In all cases when I start with��libSDL2 and��libSDL2-2.0.0 I have warnings in the command line (2 libs detected, a random one will be used each time), so I usually use only��libSDL2 which seems to work better.

In 32 bits (both Pharo 6 and 7) if I delete the��libSDL2-2.0.0 lib and use��libSDL2 only, I have mouse and window events but only *some* keyboard events. I have around 2/3 of the keyboard events, which makes the app very hard to use (Each time you press a key, you need to check if it worked or press it again if not). I don't know for sure if I have all the other events or only 2/3 of them too as there are so many.

In 64 bits, (both Pharo 6 and 7), whatever combination of lib I attempt I don't have *any* event (keyboard, mouse or window).

I have a working version in Pharo 4 where I have all the events. It's the same 32 bits lib so it has to come from something else (VM changes or image changes).

Any idea on what I have to fix to move from 2/3 of the events to all the events ?

What is the right way to get a working SDL2 window with Pharo 6/7 ?

Thanks

Ok I used the other lib (libSDL2 instead of��libSDL2-2.0.0) and it worked.

Hi Clement,

The last time I checked, the 64 bits Mac VM version is eating the keyboard events, but not the mouse and other events. I guess that for the minheadless this is not required. The 32 bits version of Mac works by running the folowing script:

FFIExternalStructure allSubclassesDo: #rebuildFieldAccessors

I think that Pavel fixed this for Pharo 7.

Ok.

I had done that.

But...��

I don't have any keyboard events. I have mouse and window events. I am using Mac 32 bits.��

Ok...

It seems that the keyboard events arrive as touch events...

I will try to make that work. We'll see.

Thanks

Btw for some reason in the one-click version of Pharo 32 bits on Mac there is 2 SDL plugins (libSDL2-2.0.0 and��libSDL2), which leads to conflicts (the VM use randomly one lib or the other). I randomly chose one that I use and deleted the other one, do you have advises on which one I should prefer ? Maybe the events are working only with the other one ?
They should be a symlink. The correct one is the libSDL2-2.0.

Best regards,
Ronie

Hi Ronie, Hi all,

I am trying to use OSWindow/SDL2 in Pharo 6,1 stable, I successfully opened the window and I can draw on it with Athens (with minor changes compared to Pharo 4). However, the user events (keyboard, mouse, etc.) are not working. It seems some constants are not initialized but I am not sure what is the right way to initialize them.

If I am correct Ronie you said you had a script to run to make OSWindow work in the latest Pharo version. Can you give it to me so I can use it ? I just need keyboard events for my use case.
