Fullscreen

[ltran1]

John and I were working on various aspects of the GUI in regards to the camera and screen, and we couldn't locate a fullscreen function. Can someone make it or tell us how to?

[jnsnow]

There isn't one. Currently, apps can be launched fullscreen by trying

export GLUT_FULLSCREEN=TRUE

then launching the app.

You can trace why this works inside of Engine::init.

I'm doing something wrong and I don't know why. I have it set in the callbacks where pressing F7 would call Engine::setFullScreen and in it is glutFullScreenToggle(). Compiles and runs fine, but the moment you try to press F7, it shows the project in fullscreen for half a second and then crashes due to segmentation fault. I did an alternative to glutFullScreenToggle() by trying to switch between glutReshapeWindow() and glutFullscreen() but I get the same result.

[jnsnow]

Do you have a stacktrace for the segfault or any error messages to share?

Did you push the code that segfaults?

[ltran1]

Just pushed the code to master. Don't think it has any other errors besides showing the segmentation fault in the terminal.

[jnsnow]

This actually works OK for me, F7 toggles fullscreen appropriately as far as I can tell.

[jnsnow]

@ltran1 can you confirm that this is still broken on the most recent codebase?

[ltran1]

I believe someone else did a hotfix to it earlier and is probably why its working now... I would totally love to test, but the latest codebase now has fmod integrated into the main project, which still doesn't want to compile on my laptop. Unfortunately :(

[jnsnow]

Alright, let's figure that out...

Can you type these two things for me?

cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/* sudo find / -name 'libfmodex.so' -print 2>/dev/null

Pastebin the results, and if you could, pastebin the error you get during compilation.

you missed the asterisk at the end of the cat command, it's supposed to show us what goodies are /inside/ that dir.

[nuclearmistake]

This will show anywhere ldconfig believes fMod is installed.

sudo ldcondig -p | grep fmodex

And this should delete any messed up fMod installed by make, allowing make to reinstall it with a working one... If the output of the first command below shows 1 or 2 matches, then run the 2nd

find /usr -name f[Mm]od -type d

for x in find /usr -name f[Mm]od -type d; do sudo rm -Rf $x; done

In other news, xargs is for sissies. Holla for a dolla. On May 7, 2013 2:12 AM, "John Snow" notifications@github.com wrote:

My apologies, heres the one with the asterisk: http://pastebin.com/uUDF9FQr

It looks and works OK for me on Fedora 18 and Ubuntu 13.04, so I'm just going to close this, because after today it won't matter anyway.
