PocketFrog vs VS2005

[dyn]

Had someone compile pf project under vs2005 beta2?

on this simple code:

Code: Select all

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9	// main.cpp #include "PocketFrog.h"    int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,        HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPTSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow ) {   return 0; } // endof main.cpp
	9 lines; 4 keywds; 1 nums; 8 ops; 1 strs; 2 coms    Syntactic Coloring v0.4 - Dan East

linker says:
Error 1 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "const type_info::`vftable'" (??_7type_info@@6B@) main.obj
Error 2 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "const type_info::`vftable'" (??_7type_info@@6B@) atlsd.lib

if

Code: Select all

1  2  3	#include "PocketFrog.h" //change on #include "windows.h"
	3 lines; 2 keywds; 0 nums; 0 ops; 2 strs; 1 coms    Syntactic Coloring v0.4 - Dan East

it compiles without problems.

MSDN says:
This product does not currently support C++ exception handling or run-time Type Information. (KB191663)

Can someone help me?

I'm having the same problems. I did compile the Pocket Frog library with VS2005's Pocket PC 2003 compiler, but with couple of these messages:

_CE_ACTIVEX was not defined because this Windows CE SDK does not have DCOM.
_CE_ACTIVEX could be caused to be defined by defining _CE_ALLOW_SINGLE_THREADED_OBJECTS_IN_MTA, but it is recommended that this be done only for single-threaded apps.
_ATL_NO_HOSTING was defined because _CE_ACTIVEX was not defined.

Then i tried to compile the "Alpha" sample application, first with my .lib and then with the original PocketFrog_ARM.lib - no success

Here's the log ouput:

I hope that someone will make Pocket Frog work in VS2005 someday

I've already solved this problem.

eVC libs don't compile in vs2005 and vise versa.
I think this is because of changes in linker...

To solve this problem you should create new project (SmartDevice Lib) for PocketFrog, add PF source files, and recompile all libs you need.
That's all.

Btw, I have noticed strange thing: my project runs slower, when compiled in VS2005b2.
Average FPS:
compiled in VS2005 - ~25
compiled in eVC 4.0 - ~45
device - HP rx3715 (WM2003SE)

Thanks, but I already managed to compile the library and some of the samples in PocketFrog.

I didn't noticed any slowdown, because I don't have the eVC installed. But i did notice you gain better performance if you build your project in Release mode (with speed optimization). I've noticed that with 'minimal' sample (in PocketHAL project). FPS jumped from 60fps (debug) to 160fps (release)

If there is someone on this forum who'd like to know how I managed to build the PocketFrog projects, let me know...

Daft question really, there's about 20 people who would welcome knowing what you did to get it to build. That's whe idea, one of us does it first to save all the others

Hello all,

I'm just getting into graphics programming on smartphones, and discovered PocketHAL (after finding D3DM to be rather lacking in support) and PocketFrog.

Here's roughly what I did to get PF compiling on VS 2005:

1. Download PF from sourceforge here
2. Unzip PocketFrog, and replace the entire PocketHAL directory with the latest one from here
3. Open the PocketFrog eVC 3/4 project (.vcp extension) from inside the 'make' directory in VS 2005 and walk through the conversion
4. Build

Note that the last step generates some warnings which you can ignore for starters (you can read about them here and here)

This generates the PF library. In order to get the 'alpha' sample to work, I then:

1. Used the VS 2005 PocketFrog solution created above and added a new empty project in it called 'Alpha'
2. Add all the existing files from the directory containing the alpha sample obtained by unzipping PocketFrog in step #2 above.
3. I added a reference to the 'PocketFrog' project by right-clicking on the Alpha project and selecting 'References...'->'Add New Reference'
4. I added a reference to the PocketHAL directory as an additional 'include' directory by going to 'Alpha' Project Properties->Configuration Properties->C/C++->Additional Include Directories. This is needed since the sample source includes <PocketFrog/PocketFrog.h>

This now runs fine on my HTC Excalibur (S620).

Hope this helps
