−The '''MLlib''' (or Minishlink's Library) is a simple library to develop on Nintendo Wii. Technically, it's a wrapper of libogc and others librairies. Coding with this lib on Wii is way easier and faster now ! :-) I created this because I needed a library with I could code with easy functions. It uses [[GX]] for drawing, [[libpng]] for handling PNG, and libs of [[libogc]]...
−
−==Features==
−* Proper code so that it's nice to see;
−* Easy for all;
−* Friendly functions;
−* Handles drawing (lol);
−* Sprite system;
−* Handles PNG images;
−* Special effects;
−* Write graphically text;
−* MP3 system;
−* MOD system;
−* Input (Wiimote, Nunchuk, and extensions...) system;
−* And much more...
−
−==How to install ?==
−===On Windows===
−First you need to have '''devKitPro''' installed. Go [[Devkitppc setup (Windows)|install]] it ! ;)
−
−Then, '''libpng''' for Wii must be installed.
−# Download it at [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/downloads/libpng_wii.zip my FTP].
−# Extract it and place the .a in "devkitpro\libogc\lib\wii" and the folder "png" in "devkitpro\libogc\include".
−# It's done !
−
−Now the '''MLlib'''.
−# Download the MLlib on the [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/downloads/list Google Code MLlib page]
−# Extract the archive and place the folder (recommended in C:\devkitPro)
−# Examples, documentation and more are in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package.
−# Set the environment variable "MLPATH" to your path to the MLlib. (eg. "/c/devkitPro/MLlib" because it must be linux-style) To do that, open the Start menu, right-click on Computer -> Properties, then go to the advanced settings -> environments variables. Set it there. It's recommended to restart the computer.
−# It should be done ! Go explore examples ! :D (test if it works via an example)
−
−===On Linux===
−
−First you need to have '''devKitPro''' installed. Go [[Devkitppc setup (Linux)|install]] it ! ;)
−
−Then, '''libpng''' for Wii must be installed.
−# Download it at [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/downloads/libpng_wii.zip my FTP].
−# Extract it and place the .a in "devkitpro/libogc/lib/wii" and the folder "png" in "devkitpro/libogc/include".
−# It's done !
−
−Now the '''MLlib'''.
−# Download the MLlib on the [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/downloads/list Google Code MLlib page]
−# Extract the archive and place the folder where you want (recommended in /home/user/devkitpro)
−# Examples, documentation and more are in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package.
−# Set the environment variable "MLPATH" to your path to the MLlib. (eg. "/home/username/devkitpro/MLlib") To do that, open and type in a new console:
− export MLPATH=/path/to/MLlib
−
−
−It should be done ! Go explore examples ! :D
−(test if it works via an example)
−
−===On Mac OS X===
−
−You should be able to do it if you read Windows/Linux instructions.
−Updated tutorial will coming soon though, with Mac OS X ;)
−
−==Notes==
−===Quickstart===
−For a quickstart, see the section [[#How_to_install_.3F|How to install ?]] and go see the examples in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package ! ;)
−
−===Tutorials and Wiki===
−Some tutorials and more info are available at the [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/wiki MLlib Wiki].
−
−===Documentation===
−Online documentation is available [http://louislagrange.free.fr/MLlib/documentation here]. Or in the "MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package.
−
−==="MLlib_Others_XXXXXX.zip" package===
−It can be downloaded on [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/downloads/list Google Code] !
−
−===Error when compiling the template/examples ?===
−To test correctly the examples and the template, make sure you have done a "make clean" before, because it will give you the error
− make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/home/minishlink/devkitpro/MLlib_Others/template/source/main.c', needed by `main.o'. Stop.
−if you don't do this ! :p
−
−===Makefile & Commands===
−====Editing Makefile====
−In order to use the MOD part of the MLlib, you need to uncomment the line "USE_MOD" at the top of the Makefile. It's the same thing when you need to compile code that uses MP3 or FAT.
−
−====Make====
−Compiles the project.
−
−====Make clean====
−Cleans the project, it destroys dependancies too.
−
−====Make run====
−It sends the app/game previously compiled to the Wii via the wiiload program. It's quiet useful because you don't need to type "wiiload projectXYZ.dol", "make run" is faster !
−You have to put the original [[Wiiload]] program (eg. the command-line program, which is provided with Twilight Hack or HBC) in the system folder of your OS. Example : "C:\Windows\System32" for Windows ; "/usr/bin" for Linux ; "??? #FixIt" for MaxOSX.
−
−Wiiload program can be downloaded [http://louislagrange.free.fr/downloads/wiiload.tar.gz here] or in the [[Hackmii Installer]] (beta 3 or newer).
−
−====Make all====
−It cleans the project, then compiles and then sends to the Wii.
−
−==Bugs & Suggestions==
−If you have any bugs or suggestions, feel free to report them on [http://code.google.com/p/mllib/issues/list Google Code].

−==Update History==
−===1.1 - June 20, 2009===
−* New method of programming. It uses seriously very less memory now. ML_Image, ML_Sprite, ML_Background.
−* added : ML_Screenshot(filename)
−* added : ML_IsSpriteVisible(sprite)
−* added : ML_AnimateSpriteEx(sprite, enabled, waitForXRefreshBetweenFrames, from, to)
−* added : ML_TextBox(ML_Sprite *sprite, x, y, x2, y2, const char *text, ...)
−* added : ML_DrawRect(int x, int y, u16 width, u16 height, u32 rgba)
−* added : ML_Debug(text)
−* added : ML_CloneImage(image1, image2)
−* added : ML_DrawSpriteTextLimit(sprite, x, y, text, limit)
−* added : ML_FlipImageX(image)
−* added : ML_FlipImageY(image)
−* added : ML_InvertImageColors(image)
−* added : ML_ApplyGrayscaleToImage(image)
−* added : ML_FlushImage(image)
−* modified : Input is now finished
−* modified : ML_GetPixelColor
−* modified : ML_SetPixelColor
−* modified : ML_SplashScreen
−* modified : ML_Cursor, so that it draws your cursor/sprite with the center of the image, and then modifies the sprite.x and sprite.y so that if you point to the left-up edge of the screen it gives you 0, 0.
−* fixes and optimizations
−
−===1.0 - May 31, 2009===
−* First public release
−[[Category:Homebrew using GRRLib]]
