I was typing it on my iPod Touch, and it thinks i was talking about Sexually Transmitted Diseases, and obviously I would have figured it out, the compiler might have even fixed it as i was typing it :D

Haha, alright.
Also, I've used the console with SDL applications (on accident). My checkers program actually took cin and cout and updated the separate SDL window (it was originally a console app and I just changed main() to have argc and argv and built it with SDL).

Really? well I can't get it to work, and i've done some googling, and apparently this problem is quite common, and i've tried the majority of the remedies suggested (with the exception of the ones that want me to recompile SDL), most of them state that SDL 'redirects' streams to output files.

I packaged a nice little function, its called addInt(std::string, int num)
and you'd call it by this
std::string asfd = addInt("Value = ",value);
draw asdf...

Actually, mystringstream.str() is the converted string-version and mystringstream.str().c_str() for the C-string. But since that's not what you wanted to do I won't delve deeper.

Yeah, lol i ended up using stringstream anyway.
I have a question on Keystates, they arent working... whats wrong with this code?
Code: Select all
Uint8 *keystates = SDL_GetKeyState(NULL);
if(keystates[SDLK_UP])
charY -= speedX;
if(keystates[SDLK_DOWN])
charY += speedY;
if(keystates[SDLK_LEFT])
charX -= speedX;
if(keystates[SDLK_RIGHT])
charX += speedX;
if(keystates[SDLK_ESCAPE])
quit = true;

It looks fine... Could you tell us what's happening wrong?

I fixed it, the main while(quit == false) loop didn't have another while(pollevent) loop inside it.
