C / Re: can't set sfVector2f in 2.1?

« on: May 07, 2014, 02:41:02 am »

alright thanks my friend i suspected something like that

so how do i input 2 floats in the form of a sfVector2f ?? that's what i'm trying to figure out

every time i try to do this i fail, and i can't move my instances by setX or setY commands those don't seem to work either 

sorry for being such a newb, last time i programmed it was C# and i think that has classes.. haven't touched C in a few years at least


this doesn't work either:

sfCircleShape_setPosition(shape,(sfVector2f){wmode.width/2.0f - radius, wmode.height/2.0f - radius})

although i am pretty sure it worked in 2.0? at least one forum claims it did for CSFML 2.0

how do i feed the circleshape_setposition function my set of floats to update it's position? :S i'm baffled lol something definitely eludes me here

C / can't set sfVector2f in 2.1?

« on: May 07, 2014, 01:01:50 am »

first of all thanks for development with C sfml, appreciate it too much; however it seems i am in need of some help!

every time i type:

sfVector2f v1(100.f,100.f);

or anything of the sort; and i try compiling, this is what i get

1>sfml_test2.c(20): error C2275: 'sfVector2f' : illegal use of this type as an expression
1>          C:\Program Files (x86)\CSFML-2.1\include\SFML/System/Vector2.h(64) : see declaration of 'sfVector2f'


how do i define a new vector then? anybody help me? it seems it is an illegal use of the type as an expression what i am doing but; why?
the usage in the documentation reads:

http://www.sfml-dev.org/documentation/2.1/classsf_1_1Vector2.php

sf::Vector2f v1(16.5f, 24.f);

that's the example code.

i just don't get it :S i can't make the stuff move without this; and setX doesn't work it seems;
i can't set make the 2 floats into a vector no matter what the manual says!!! sure could use a hand
