SOIL Result Messages

[Wizzard]

I want to request that by default the release version of the graphics package library be compiled with STBI_FAILURE_USERMSG defined.
This will force stb_image to, instead of giving specific errors, like...

Code: [Select]

can't fopen

... give more user friendly errors, like...

Code: [Select]

Unable to open file

This would be ideal for the release version of the graphics package.


EDIT: If the above request is done, could you also change the errors in ImageLoader.cpp to contain a capital letter after 'Reason : '?
Such that...

Code: [Select]

Reason : this image format is not supported

... is changed to...

Code: [Select]

Reason : This image format is not supported

Of course, this is a matter of ill-importance compared to the initial request and definitely shouldn't be done if it causes an inconsistency in the error messages for other parts of the APIs.

I thought it was already done, but I'll check it.

[Wizzard]

Maybe it's already in the SVN, I didn't check. :oops:


EDIT: It's not in the Code::Blocks project or in the obvious places of the source files.

It still could be there somewhere, but I'm too busy to set it up to compile at the moment.

[Laurent]

Okay, done

Now the release builds will show user friendly error messages.

Thanks a ton, Laurent, and keep up the great work.
