[solved]SDL input error

Post by pythip »

I am doing lazy foos tutorial, I did a number of them, and then started over and am doing them again but inside classes this time, all went well the first time I did them.
so my problem is this I compile my program, run it, alls fine, but when I quit I get a whole bunch of errors in my console. below is some of the code of my program, I will post a portion the error message it is quite lengthy, any help would be great

from input.cpp

Code: Select all

int input::get_input()
{		
	key = SDL_GetKeyState (NULL);

	if (key[SDLK_UP])
	{
	x = 1;
	}
	if (key[SDLK_DOWN])
	{
	x = 2;
	}
	if (key[SDLK_LEFT])
	{
	x = 3;
	}
	if (key[SDLK_RIGHT])
	{
	x = 4;
	}
	if (key[SDLK_r])
	{
	inputgraphics.load_graphics();
	}
	return x;
}
from main.cpp

Code: Select all

while( quit == false )
	{
		quit =input.check_quit(quit);
		graphics.x = input.get_input();
		graphics.getInput();
		graphics.update();
	}
	graphics.quit();
	engine.quit();
	return 0;
from graphics.cpp

Code: Select all

void graphics::getInput()
{
	if (x == 1)
	{
	message = upMessage;
	}
	if (x == 2)
	{
	message = downMessage;
	}
	if (x == 3)
	{
	message = leftMessage;
	}
	if (x == 4)
	{
	message = rightMessage;
	}
}
bool graphics::update()
{
apply_surface( 0, 0, background, buffer,NULL);
apply_surface(500, 0, message, buffer);
apply_surface(0, 0, player, buffer, &clip[0]);
apply_surface( 0, 40, player, buffer, &clip[1]);
apply_surface( 0, 80, player, buffer, &clip[2]);
apply_surface( 0, 120, player, buffer, &clip[3]);
    if( SDL_Flip( buffer ) == -1 )

    {
	printf("graphics.cpp buffer = -1: %s\n", SDL_GetError());

        return 1;

    }
}

Code: Select all

graphics.quit();
   engine.quit();
   return 0;
put a breakpoint at the line graphics.quit(); and step through your code with your debugger. That is where I would start. When you do something to exit the program (press the X in the upper right hand corner?) your debugger should pop up and you should be able to step through your code and figure out where the program is exiting, and thus find the error.

Re: SDL input error

Post by pythip »

I'm using g++ which doesn't have a debugger, I tried putting my code into codeblocks, which I don't have any experience using, and compiled my main.cpp and it ran, then I realised that the breaks that I set didn't stop the program, so I made a project, and when I went to build the project I got errors, I included the same linkers as I would in g++, anyone know how to fix this? I should probably note that the error messages only appear when I press the arrow keys.

I'm just going to be blunt. Get a debugger. The fact that it only happens when you press an arrow key is a BIG hint. I would probably have to see your entire program to tell you exactly, because your code looks fine (what I can see of it). So, please do yourself a favor, get and learn (and love?) a debugger. It's like the yang to your ying. Or whatever.

Re: SDL input error

Post by pythip »

so the problem was I telling the program that if RIGHT was pressed, then it would change the text on the screen to "going right", the next time it went through the loop, I would press a different button, assigning multiple variables to the same surface, so I solved it by setting the surface to NULL after I put it on the screen, thanks for the help, had a tough time with the debuggers though (codeblocks/ anjunta /eclipse). So I just printf("exit graphics"), and went from there.

That's not gonna be enough... Seriously he is right, get a debugger, if you were having a hard time with them, its because you were doing something wrong. If you get a debugger you will save yourself soooooo much trouble in the future, its not really a suggestion, you will need a debugger
