Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

cool. Thanks for the notes. I've downloaded the cegcc from here: http://cegcc.sourceforge.net/ I got this file, since I'm using cygwin: cygwin-cegcc-mingw32ce-0.51.0-1.tar.gz Is that the one you're using? It seems pythonce itself is compiled with the embedded visual C++ 4.0 : http://pythonce.so

i tried, but not very hard. configure worked fine, but during make it complained about iconv.h some other includeand looking in legacy versions of cegcc, iconv.h *was* included in the mingw32ce distbut i dunno. Ill probs work on it some more this week, to try to get it working Jared On Fr

Jared & Adam, Glad to hear you were able to cross compile sdl with cegcc, this opens the possibility to compile pygame with cegcc, which may yield better results than Microsoft tools :) Some times ago, I've sent Jared a PythonCE 2.5 import library and an scons script to easily compile Python mo

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

I have successfully compiled SDL, and compiled several SDL programs in cegcc. To compile SDL: Grab SDL 1.2.6 Grab this patch < http://users.uoa.gr/~knakos/scummvm/libraries/libsdl_20070610_diff> Unzip SDL: tar -zxf SDL-1.2.6.tar.gz apply the patch (i

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

Hi, Rene. Thanks for the clarification on pygame-ctypes. The link where I found the SCUMMVM SDL libraries is here: http://users.uoa.gr/~knakos/scummvm/libraries/release-0-10-0/wince-gcc-libs.tar.bz2 There are a number of files in there, including a .diff file which may shed some light on some of

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

What is the best way to compile extensions for python CE ? Adam: do you have a link to those SCUMVM files? Any further progress? Why not pygame-ctypes? It was slow, buggy, and non-portable - and C pygame worked fine. The author was paid to do it, and stopped when the money ran out and moved on

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

I, too came across the SCUMM files ;) and have gotten some test SDL c programs to compile under cegcc. On Thu, Aug 7, 2008 at 4:47 AM, Adam Walley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > My plans, exactly ;-) BTW why was pygame-ctypes abandoned? Reading some of > the past info on it, it seemed like a great

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

My plans, exactly ;-) BTW why was pygame-ctypes abandoned? Reading some of the past info on it, it seemed like a great idea to use the ctypes module. 2008/8/7 René Dudfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > nice work :) > > It can be easier to first try and get the SDL test programs compiling. > Then try an

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

nice work :) It can be easier to first try and get the SDL test programs compiling. Then try and get a really simple, minimal python extension compiling... and you guessed it, try and get them both compiling together :) There's a few wince folks hanging out on the libsdl mailing list if you have

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

Well, I have been attempting to get something working, but have been struggling to get the SDL compiled correctly (without SDL, there is no point in trying to get pygame working). In my investigations, I came across the SCUMM forum. Now the SCUMMVM appears to be a fully working product on various p

[PythonCE] pygame / distutils

Hi, if anyone has any project files to build pygame on pythonce I'd love to have them included with pygame. I'm an author/maintainer of pygame and have commit access to svn, so could add project files if someone makes them... I could also add a pygame download for python CE to the pygame.org down

Re: [PythonCE] pygame / distutils

Hi, I've been able to make pygame-ctypes works with SDL.dll and SDL_Image.dll built from "unofficial" wince project files of SDL, with very minimal changes. I'm keen to package this and make it public, but you must note this is very experimental and is a bit slow. The constraints explained

Christopher and Jared, Thank you for your comments. Christopher would you agree about the sluggishness once pygame is running on a PDA? I suppose I am not too bothered at the moment. For my purposes just being able to access audio and drawing to screen would be fine - though I'm sure sooner or lat

[PythonCE] pygame / distutils

Hi, All. I have been struggling to get things working with pygame. From trawling through newsgroups, repositories, and various other places, I have not found any conclusive method of getting pygame up and running on the WinCE platform. I think half of the problem is that I am unsure about the enti
