CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

I want to convert an Ogre::TexturePtr to a CEGUI::Texture.

There are several Code examples around, but I get an error for each one ^^

This is how I create the Ogre Texture:


Now three attempts for the CEGUI Texture:
1. based on Ogre wiki
http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/File_DialogBuild.cpp


2. Based on Ogre tutorial
http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/Basic_Tutorial_7


3. Based on some forum thread here


The first one gives a linking error

undefined reference to `CEGUI::OgreCEGUITexture::setOgreTexture(Ogre::TexturePtr&)'

while the latter two give the compile time error that I am calling createTexture with wrong arguments. I guess the first attempt is closest to the solution.

Concerning the linker error: I am already using these libs:

pkg-config --libs CEGUI-OGRE
-lCEGUIOgreRenderer -lOgreMain -lCEGUIBase

whats missing ?

Thank you very much

Hi,

I'm not sure why you get the undefined reference error, it seems strange. This probably means the solution is staring us in the face

In order to use the 'other' approach, you basically require either to cast the renderer returned from CEGUI::System to the CEGUI::OgreCEGUIRenderer (which is only to require the Ogre specific renderer header; it contains a default for the resourceGroup second parameter), or specify the second parameter explicitly yourself as, probably "General".

So:

Thanks, code is compiling now - although not doing what it is intended to do so far
I hope to get that fixed on my own

CEGUI: 0.6.2
Ogre: 1.6.2


Here is how we do it
