pgPrint question

[JJPeerless]

say i have a int variable named score (which keeps track of your score in a game...)

and on the screen i want to print "Score: 234" where 234 is the itneger stored in score..

how do i go about sending something like pgPrint(x,y,color,"Score: " + score)

i cant figure it out.. thanks

sprintf()?

[JJPeerless]

well yea..i tried that..but then when i copmile it gets all angry

says

"undefined reference to sprintf"

[annerajb]

could you post the code and with what are you compiling

[JJPeerless]

im using psp-gcc to compile everything..

ive added these includes

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

and im using it as follows:

char buffer[20];
sprintf(buffer,"%i",score);

pgPrint(54,3,0xffff,"Score");
pgPrint(56,7,0xffff, buffer);

if "compiles" fine with psp-gcc

but the error comes in my main.o file

undefined reference to 'sprintf'

Link with libc (pass -lc on the linker command line)?

[MrSiir[S]]

use itoa(), if you don't have libc (ee-gcc), use custom function

char * itoa ( int value, char * buffer, int radix );

or, cutom ltoa function:

Code: Select all

#define MAX_LENGTH 32+1

char* _ltoa(char* buf, long i, int base)
{
    char reverse[MAX_LENGTH+1];	// plus one for the null
    char* s;
    char sign = i < 0;

    i = labs&#40;i&#41;;
    reverse&#91;MAX_LENGTH&#93; = 0;
    s = reverse+MAX_LENGTH;
    do &#123;
        *--s = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"&#91;i % base&#93;;
        i /= base;
    &#125; while &#40;i&#41;;
    if &#40;sign&#41; *--s = '-';
    return strcpy&#40;buf, s&#41;;
&#125;
