Author Topic: SFML 2.0 and .NET Binding (Read 5171 times)

Hi, so I finally got around to compiling SFML 2.0 and im quite impressed with what ive seen so far, though I have had to implement some win32 work arounds due to lack of functionality in some areas that I was able to work around using SFML, alas my previous work around has been removed.

Anyway, the real reason I wanted to compile and use SFML 2.0 was for the C# binding. 1.6 freezes when creating a RenderWindow, but is otherwise fine in C++, I searched for hours for information on why this is happening and all I came up with was another forum thread here with someone who is experiencing the very same problem, sadly, no reply. I then saw another forum post of a guy who had written a small test application Thanking Laurent in Visual Studio 2010 (the version I have) with C# 2.0 bindings and so I thought that 2.0 might work for me. Unfortunatly I cannot find the bindings for .Net anywhere and Im here to ask for them.

Have they been taken down? If not where/how can I get them?

Thanks

The binding has moved to its own repository:

https://github.com/SFML/SFML.Net

It's self-contained, you don't need SFML/CSFML to build and use it.

Ah! Fantastic, I have it working now! (those files were a bit hidden if you ask me). Works like a dream, just what I was looking for, especially with Tom Millers game loop I can now have some fun creating tools for 2D games

Haha good stuff! Keep it up

, your pretty much my only hope at a decent multi-media (mainly 2D rendering) set of APIs for C# haha!

That's because there's no official release yet. When everything's ready for public release, they will be much more visible.

Is it also possible to have precompiled versions up on the repository?

I am having some trouble with converstion to VS2010.

No, source code repositories never contain the compiled stuff.

those conversion problems... im having them too. when i open up the sfml.net in visual c#, the conversion thing happens, but in the conversion log, most of the things say not converted.. Then when i try to compile i get errors.
