function (irr::IrrlitchDevice *device);

[Sindromequijote]

Hi,
I suppose that i can't pass the Irrlitch Device as a parameter of a function. I got some errors trying that. I wanted to do a class' function (for example a menu/button... class) to draw "itself" on the device. How can I do that?
Thanks a lot.

Why you can't pass the device as a parameter ???

Code: Select all

void myFunc(IrrlichtDevice* irrdev){
  // enter code here
}

now you can pass the device like this:

Code: Select all

IrrlichtDevice* device = createDevice(EDT_DIRECTX9, dimension2d<s32>(640, 480), 16);
myFunc(device);

I don't see where the problem is...
It's C++ pointer basics !!!

class CPanelAcciones{
private:
...
public:
CPanelAcciones (irr:IrrlitchDevice* device, ...);
...
}

Error C2226: unexpected type 'irr::IrrlitchDevice'
error C2238: unexpected token(s) preceding ';'

Hi,
you probably forgot to include irrlicht.h there - the compiler tells you it doesn't know what a IrrlichtDevice is.
Actually all SceneNodes and GUIElements in irrlicht draw themselves. The object-oriented way to go would be to derive from IGUIElement or one of its subclasses.

Irrlicht is spelled wrong...

you have Irrlitch. It is Irrlicht.

In my code I spelled it correctly and I'd included irrlicht allready...
Thanks Anyway
