Every time you call DerelictFoo.load, you are loading exactly one 
library. You will never see a Derelict package that loads multiple 
libraries in one call.

ok, so basically, each time I want to access some specific functions
imported like:
   import derelict.sdl2.foo;
I have to load it like this?
   DerelictSDL2foo.load();


Don't think of it that way. Think of it this way: you have to load every 
library you want to use. SDL2_mixer is a library, SDL2_image is a 
library, SDL2_ttf is a library, and so on. You have to load them 
individually. DerelictSDL2 binds to SDL2, DerelictSDL2Mixer binds to 
SDL2_mixer and so on.




After that I also got a SDL_mixer error : No such device.
This was solved by installing libasound-dev and libpulse-dev and
recompiling SDL2.
Now I have sound!!


The Derelict packages are all just bindings to C libraries and nothing 
more. To use those libraries, you need to install their dependencies on 
each platform you need to use them on. If you don't know what the 
dependencies are, you should visit the website or support forums for 
that library.

OK!
Somehow I had overlooked the most obvious documentation on 
DerelictSDL2: the readme.md file on the github repository page 
which displays these informations.. Sorry!

Yes, it was an issue unrelated to D or DerelictOrg but still some 
problem encountered by clueless me on its quest to use SDL_Mixer 
functions with D.. This might be of some help for a beginner like 
me who had difficulties to find some straightforward 
documentation to set everything up. The SDL and SDL_mixer 
websites did not help much (..or I overlooked some stuffs again).


DerelictOrg and SDL_Mixer

2014-11-24 Thread torea via Digitalmars-d-learn

Hi all,

I'm playing a bit with D and SDL using DerelictOrg on debian 6. 
I've installed SDL2, SDL_mixer2 and the latest packages 
DerelictUtil and DerelictSDL2.

I can display some stuffs and interact with the keys.
Now I'm trying to add music and sounds but each time I try to 
access a function from SDL_mixer ( I tried with Mix_openAudio and 
Mix_LoadWav ), I get a segmentation fault.
These functions are defined in the mixer.d file in the 
DerelictSDL2 package but I guess I miss something concerning the 
link to the real sdl_mixer lib file.
Is there a specific way to install the sdl_mixer package with 
DerelictSDL2?

It's a common error but did you load the Mixer and SDL libraries?
DerelictSDL2Mixer.load();
DerelictSDL2.load();

And some code or output from gdb would be most helpful.

Thanks very much!! I'll try this tonight!
(And yes, I know it's better to post some code but I forgot to
