How to execute this DirectFB sample?


I got the following directFB example code form the tutorials:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

#include <directfb/directfb.h>

static IDirectFB *dfb = NULL;
static IDirectFBSurface *primary = NULL;
static int screen_width = 0;
static int screen_height = 0;
#define DFBCHECK(x...)                                         \
  {                                                            \
    DFBResult err = x;                                         \
                                                               \
    if (err != DFB_OK)                                         \
      {                                                        \
        fprintf( stderr, "%s <%d>:\n\t", __FILE__, __LINE__ ); \
        DirectFBErrorFatal( #x, err );                         \
      }                                                        \
  }
int main(int argc, char **argv) {

    DFBSurfaceDescription dsc;
    DFBCHECK(DirectFBInit (&argc, &argv));
    DFBCHECK(DirectFBCreate (&dfb));
    DFBCHECK(dfb->SetCooperativeLevel (dfb, DFSCL_FULLSCREEN));
    dsc.flags = DSDESC_CAPS;
    dsc.caps = DSCAPS_PRIMARY | DSCAPS_FLIPPING;
    DFBCHECK(dfb->CreateSurface( dfb, &dsc, &primary ));
    DFBCHECK(primary->GetSize (primary, &screen_width, &screen_height));
    DFBCHECK(primary->FillRectangle (primary, 0, 0, screen_width, screen_height));
    DFBCHECK(primary->SetColor (primary, 0x80, 0x80, 0xff, 0xff));
    DFBCHECK(primary->DrawLine (primary, 0, screen_height / 2, screen_width - 1, screen_height / 2));
    DFBCHECK(primary->Flip (primary, NULL, 0));
    sleep(5);
    primary->Release(primary);
    dfb->Release(dfb);
    return 23;
}

And I'm trying to compile and got the error (from a gnome-terminal):

$ g++ Test01HorizontalLine.cpp -I /usr/local/include/directfb/
Test01HorizontalLine.cpp: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:
Test01HorizontalLine.cpp:27: error: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘DFBSurfaceCapabilities’
Test01HorizontalLine.cpp:33: error: invalid conversion from ‘int’ to ‘DFBSurfaceFlipFlags’

I'm using DFB 1.4.11 (I can't update for my current project). How can I make this sample run? (newbie)

--update

After update the lines (as stated by @jclin):

dsc.caps = DFBSurfaceCapabilities(DSCAPS_PRIMARY | DSCAPS_FLIPPING);  
...  
primary->Flip(primary, NULL, DFBSurfaceFlipFlags(0));  

the result is:

$ g++ Test01HorizontalLine.cpp -I /usr/local/include/directfb/

Solution

  • Can you try this because I have no such version right now.

    dsc.caps = DFBSurfaceCapabilities(DSCAPS_PRIMARY | DSCAPS_FLIPPING);  
    ...  
    primary->Flip(primary, NULL, DFBSurfaceFlipFlags(0));
