Title: [Android] LoadFromFile (Not apk/internal asset)
Post by: CytraL on June 09, 2015, 06:32:53 am

I see that Android ResourceStream implementation only works with Internal Assets... perhaps is best uses "FILE" against "Asset" and use "funopen" for get FILE handle... and try first to get a internal assets if it can't... try with 'normal' resource... or something like that :\

Or.. exists any method for load "external" assets??!?!!

*** In 2.3 i get a crash when try load a file that doesn't exists.

Code: [Select]

sf::Texture texture;
texture.loadFromFile("ssss");  <-- CRASH!


How i can help with Android branch?

Grettings!

External loading doesn't exist yet due to there being no real "interface" for it so far.

However, you should be able to do it just by creating your own sf::Stream object and using sf::Texture::loadFromStream.

To help/contribute: just create your own fork on GitHub, implement your changes, create a pull request for review (or a topic on the forums first if you're not sure about whether that's something wanted).
