OpenOS port for the GUI and image libraries? #552

Closed Apfelmoes closed 1 year ago

Apfelmoes commented 1 year ago

Hi, i've been trying to use the legacy version of the GUI and image libraries on OpenOS for a while now. I've been struggling with countless errors, most of which i can fix myself, but a lot of the errors have to do with the image library which I have had a lot of trouble with. Is there anyone who has already ported the image or gui library?

Kind regards, Apelmoes

Yeah, I saw your sufferings in discord xd

Unfortunately, there is no stable and up-to-date port. It is quite problematic to get rid of all MineOS dependencies and its specific filesystem methods like readBytes/readUnicodeChar/readTable

Probably the easiest way would be to simply copy these methods into some sort of compatibilty script, or just go through autoreplacing, for example:

file:readBytes(4) -> string.unpack("> I4", file:read(4))

I decided to try porting it anyway (and succeeded!)

I did have to port the whole filesystem library from MineOS to OpenOS but that wasn't too hard, i'll make a repo once everything is polished.
