Hi,
I'd like to port a SDL software to PS2.
I've succesfully setup CodeBlocks for ps2dev and built a hello world not using SDL.

Then I wanted to enable SDL functions so I've downloaded the SDL folder from the ps2dev SVN and tried to build the examples provided (checkkeys.c...)

But couldn't make it :(

CodeBlocks complains about
"
ld:: cannot find -lsdl
:: === Build finished: 1 errors, 0 warnings ===
"

Is this SDL library ready to use?
I mean I just have to include <SDL.h> and it's supposed to work ??

Thanks for you help

Did you tried first the "traditional" way of making the example, that is, issuing a "make" on the command line / shell ?
Did it compiled with success?

Oops, I don't know how to do the traditionnal way!

Maybe I've haven't installed it properly...

Are those step by step instructions good to follow:

?

Thank you,

I've finally been able to make it work.

I've succesfully compiled a elf file displaying a few SDL rectangle. Very exciting :)

Now I'm trying to figure out why
FILE * f=fopen("someFile","r");
always returns NULL...

Anyway, I'm happy to finally be able to develop on PS2!

Try:

fopen("host:someFile","r");
