How to create a Rect, the same size/location as a Shape

[Idea]

Hello, I'm trying to create a rect, that is the same size as a shape and I've been having trouble.
Here's my code.

Code: [Select]



int main()
{
    //declare variables
    bool Falling;
    Falling = true;
    // Create the main window
    sf::RenderWindow App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "SFML window");
    const sf::Input& Input = App.GetInput();

    // Load a sprite to display
    sf::Shape Player = sf::Shape::Rectangle(50,50,100,100,sf::Color::White);
    Player.SetPosition(200,200);
    sf::Shape CollisionTest = sf::Shape::Rectangle(50,50,150,150,sf::Color::Cyan);
    CollisionTest.SetPosition(200,400);

    // Start the game loop
    while (App.IsOpened())
    {
        //timer
        float Time = Clock.GetElapsedTime();
        Clock.Reset();

        //Rectangles for Collision Detection
        sf::IntRect ghostRect;
        ghostRect.Left = Player.GetPosition().x;
        ghostRect.Top = Player.GetPosition().y;
        ghostRect.Right = Player.GetScale().x;
        ghostRect.Bottom = Player.GetScale().y;

        sf::IntRect TestRect;
        TestRect.Left = CollisionTest.GetPosition().x;
        TestRect.Top = CollisionTest.GetPosition().y;
        TestRect.Right = CollisionTest.GetScale().x;
        TestRect.Bottom = CollisionTest.GetScale().y;



        //Handles various If statements such as falling,input, and collision

        if(Falling == true)
        {
            Player.Move(0,100*Time);
        }

        if(App.GetInput().IsKeyDown(sf::Key::A))
        {
            Player.Move(-100 * Time,0);
        }
        if(App.GetInput().IsKeyDown(sf::Key::D))
        {
            Player.Move(100 * Time,0);
        }
        if(App.GetInput().IsKeyDown(sf::Key::Left))
        {
            Player.Move(-100 * Time,0);
        }
        if(App.GetInput().IsKeyDown(sf::Key::Right))
        {
            Player.Move(100 * Time,0);
        }
        if(ghostRect.Intersects(TestRect))
        {
            break;
        }
}

Some code has been taken out because it has nothing to do with the Rectangle problem.

Obviously these lines are completely wrong. You need the right and bottom position, not the scale.

Code: [Select]

ghostRect.Right = Player.GetScale().x;
ghostRect.Bottom = Player.GetScale().y;
But I wouldn't know how to get the right and bottom position either.

You should use SFML 2, I know that it is possible there with sf::RectangleShape (but you will have to adjust your code because SFML2 is a little different).

In SFML 2, you can also use GetGlobal/LocalBounds().
