Window 8 Metro Style, WinRT

Postby sssr33 » Thu Jan 12, 2012 14:42

Hi. I was trying to add CEGUI to my Direct3D Metro Style application but it crashes when i try to do anything with CEGUI. Is someone have sample of CEGUI + Metro Style + Direct3D application? Also as i know Microsoft removed(replaced) many methods from WinRT which were in Win32, so is CEGUI supports WinRT? If not: how soon it will be?

Thanks!

CrazyEddie and I use Linux exclusively for all CEGUI development. As you may or may not know, WinRT isn't included in most distros :lol:

That said, such a port would be valuable, I am not trying to diss Microsoft or Windows or both (I do that elsewhere :rofl: ). So the answer is, as soon as somebody contributes it AND pledges to maintain it (AFAIK CrazyEddie only has WinXP in a virtual machine, I have several Win7 licenses in virtual machines but I do not plan to get Win8 the day it comes out).

It would be helpful if you provided info on what crashes specifically (with backtraces, info on how to reproduce this, test code, ...), your post is vague and useless for development.
