NoNameNo's C/C++ 2D/3D graphics development library for the Nintendo Wii, GRRLIB, has recently received a new update, bumping up the version of the app to 4.3.1. The latest release of the app is now compatible with the latest update of libpng, libogc and FreeType.
Developer's note:
GRRLIB is a C/C++ 2D/3D graphics library for Wii application developers. It is essentially a wrapper which presents a friendly interface to the Nintendo GX core. With it, coders can quickly and easily start creating graphical applications.
GRRLIB is supplied as a standard C/C++ library (aka. archive) called 'libgrrlib'. Because GRRLIB processes JPEG and PNG images, it requires the installation of the 'libjpeg' and 'libpngu' libraries. 'libpngu', in turn, requires 'libpng' and 'libpng' requires 'libz'. GRRLIB also has FileIO functions to allow real-time loading and saving of graphical data, and thus also requires 'libfat'. GRRLIB also has the possibility to use TrueType fonts, so 'libfreetype' is also required.
There are currently 95 applications using GRRLIB.
Help can be found on the forum or in #grrlib on EFnet.
Changelog:
- libpng was updated to version 1.4.4
- FreeType updated to version 2.4.3
- GRRLIB is compatible with libogc 1.8.4
