NDS beginner

SDL Development
1

Hello, I have been using SDL for a while now on OSX and linux, and
have become quite comfortable with it. I want to try using it on the
Nintendo DS. I went to this site - http://gpf.dcemu.co.uk/ndsSDL.shtml

  • and found the necessary libraries and a simple template. I am not
    very used to makefiles, but I assumed that running the makefile in a
    terminal will compile the code in the template. The output I got was
    as follows -

/Users/alokin/Downloads/libSDLDS061507.rar
Folder/template/arm9/Makefile ; exit;
67-194-11-118:~ alokin$ /Users/alokin/Downloads/libSDLDS061507.rar
Folder/template/arm9/Makefile ; exit;
/Users/alokin/Downloads/libSDLDS061507.rar
Folder/template/arm9/Makefile: line 2: command not found
/Users/alokin/Downloads/libSDLDS061507.rar
Folder/template/arm9/Makefile: line 4: syntax error near unexpected
token $(strip $(DEVKITARM)),' /Users/alokin/Downloads/libSDLDS061507.rar Folder/template/arm9/Makefile: line 4'ifeq ($(strip $(DEVKITARM)),)

I do not understand what this means, but I know that I have devkitpro,
though I don’t quite know how to install it (I’m on OSX).
I don’t know the low-level basics of the Nintendo DS, which is why I
was hoping SDL would provide a nice wrapper for it, as it does for
computers, so don’t expect me to know many DS specific things.

Sorry for the n00by question, but if anyone has gotten a nice SDL-NDS
set-up, I would really like help with this.

You need gnumake (or another similar make implementation.) Does that
come with Xcode? Devkitpro? I don’t know. I can’t remember!!! (Been a
long time for me with Mac.)

Makefiles are not shell scripts!!!

(Try to run make on the commandline! Maybe you already have it!)On Wed, Mar 25, 2009 at 9:29 PM, Alokin Nollahwe <alokin.nollahwe at gmail.com> wrote:

Xcode comes with a full gcc/GNU make/autoconf/automake setup, pretty
much what you’d expect in a typical Unix box development kit.On Wed, Mar 25, 2009 at 10:33 PM, Donny Viszneki <donny.viszneki at gmail.com> wrote:

Run “make” from the terminal, while you’re in the directory that contains the Makefile. make will find it and use it to build the project.

Is the right answer!

They’ll also need the GNU Compiler Collection for ARM chips if not already installed. This looks appropriate…

Almost there.

Doing “make” tells me to put devkitarm and devkitpro in my
environment. I successfully put devkitarm in my environment, but I
haven’t found “devkitpro” by itself on the internet. I always get
redirected to download devkitarm…On Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 5:40 AM, Paul Duffy wrote:

Actually, DevKitARM is like a “module” of DevKitPRO. You must set
devkitpro environment pointing to the parent folder (the one with libnds
and devkitarm children) and devkitarm variable to the devkitarm subdir.

As it looks here -
http://wiki.devkitpro.org/index.php/Getting_Started/devkitARM -
devkitpro isn’t actually something I download, its just the directory
into which I put devkitarm and libnds. Is this correct?

I will let you know if this works in a bit…

Yeah, that’s correct. For example, I have them placed on my Linux
machine like so:
~/hack/devkitPro/devkitARM
~/hack/devkitPro/libnds
and the following environment variables are exported in my ~/.bashrc:
DEVKITPRO=~/hack/devkitPro
DEVKITARM=$DEVKITPRO/devkitARM
I imagine it’s done similarly in OSX since OSX is BSD at heart.

libnds compiled in the devkitPro directory. However, trying to make
the template gives me this -

And finally, trying to make the SDL-1.2.9 thing results in this -

mushroom-kingdom:SDL-1.2.9 alokin$ make
arm-eabi-gcc -mthumb -mthumb-interwork -march=armv5te -mtune=arm946e-s
-O2 -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wpointer-arith -Wconversion -DARM9
-D__NDS__ -I/devkitPro/libnds/include -DENABLE_NDS -DNO_SIGNAL_H
-DDISABLE_THREADS -DPACKAGE=“SDL” -DVERSION=“1.2.9”
-DHAVE_ALLOCA_H=1 -DHAVE_ALLOCA=1 -Iinclude -Isrc -Isrc/audio

make: arm-eabi-gcc: Command not found
make: *** [src/audio/nds/SDL_ndsaudio.o] Error 127

So I am one step closer, by having devkitpro/arm and libnds installed
correctly, and now I need to install the SDL part correctly, and make
sure that i can make these examples…On Sun, Mar 29, 2009 at 3:08 AM, Alokin Nollahwe <@Alokin_Nollahwe> wrote:

Yeah, that’s correct. ?For example, I have them placed on my Linux
machine like so:
?~/hack/devkitPro/devkitARM
?~/hack/devkitPro/libnds
and the following environment variables are exported in my ~/.bashrc:
?DEVKITPRO=~/hack/devkitPro
?DEVKITARM=$DEVKITPRO/devkitARM
I imagine it’s done similarly in OSX since OSX is BSD at heart.

As it looks here -
http://wiki.devkitpro.org/index.php/Getting_Started/devkitARM -
devkitpro isn’t actually something I download, its just the directory
into which I put devkitarm and libnds. Is this correct?

I will let you know if this works in a bit…

2009/3/26 ?:

Actually, DevKitARM is like a “module” of DevKitPRO. You must set devkitpro
environment pointing to the parent folder (the one with libnds and devkitarm
children) and devkitarm variable to the devkitarm subdir.

Almost there.

Doing “make” tells me to put devkitarm and devkitpro in my
environment. I successfully put devkitarm in my environment, but I
haven’t found “devkitpro” by itself on the internet. I always get
redirected to download devkitarm…

Run “make” from the terminal, while you’re in
the directory that contains the Makefile. ?make will find it
and use it to build the project.

Is the right answer!

They’ll also need the GNU Compiler Collection for ARM chips if not already
installed. This looks appropriate…

I have successfully set up my environment with devkitARM/Pro, and
libnds compiled in the devkitPro directory. However, trying to make
the template gives me this -

mushroom-kingdom:template alokin$ make
make -C arm7
/Users/alokin/Desktop/libSDLDS061507.rar:1: *** missing separator. Stop.
make[1]: *** [build] Error 2
make: *** [arm7/SDLtemplate.elf] Error 2

Any ideas?

Also, trying to compile a similar example thing, I get a similar/the
same error -

mushroom-kingdom:parallax2SDL alokin$ make
/Users/alokin/Desktop/NDSSDLexamples.rar:1: *** missing separator. Stop.
make: *** [build] Error 2

Google is your friend:

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/1998-10/msg00455.html

Don’t you love Windows CRLF line terminators?

And finally, trying to make the SDL-1.2.9 thing results in this -

mushroom-kingdom:SDL-1.2.9 alokin$ make
arm-eabi-gcc -mthumb -mthumb-interwork -march=armv5te -mtune=arm946e-s

Either the arm-eabi-gcc command is not installed, or it is not on your

Try setting the command’s full path with the CC environment variable
when running ./configure, like this

CC=/exact/command/to/run/gccwhatever ./configure --whatever-options --you-wanted

Try setting your command path, like this

echo $PATH
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/commands/not/yet/on/your/path

So I am one step closer, by having devkitpro/arm and libnds installed
correctly, and now I need to install the SDL part correctly, and make
sure that i can make these examples…

It’s a compiler.

http://gcc.gnu.org/

Specifically it’s a cross-compiler targeting the ARM platform (your DS
uses two ARM CPUs.)

The EABI bit is probably a little over your head (no offense.)

I can’t tell you more than that since I’ve never developed for the DS.

Try setting the command’s full path with the CC environment variable
when running ./configure, like this

CC=/exact/command/to/run/gccwhatever ./configure --whatever-options
–you-wanted

Try setting your command path, like this

echo $PATH
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/commands/not/yet/on/your/path

I did not see that, I only saw the message about the
carriage return, weird. What is arm-eabi-gcc? I don’t
know where it would be installed, I just installed devkitarm
and libnds, and their paths are already in my shell
configuration

How might this “be more complicated?” It
is exactly as complicated
as before:

Either the arm-eabi-gcc command is not
installed, or it is not on your

command path.

Try setting the command’s full
path with the CC environment variable

when running ./configure, like this

CC=/exact/command/to/run/gccwhatever
./configure --whatever-options

–you-wanted

this
