Update: I looked at the code in more detail and it seems that the error occurs a little earlier, in function IDirectFB_CreateFont (src/idirectfb.c:1169). That function calls DirectGetInterface (lib/direct/interface.c:130) which returns DR_NOIMPL, meaning "No implementation for this interface or content type has been found".
Below there's the code I am using. I can't figure out what's going on, any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. R. #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <directfb.h> #include <string.h> #define DATADIR "/usr/share/fonts/" int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { IDirectFB *dfb = NULL; IDirectFBSurface *primary = NULL; DFBSurfaceDescription dsc; IDirectFBFont *font = NULL; DFBFontDescription font_dsc; char *text = "test123"; int screen_width = 0; int screen_height = 0; // Init DirectFBInit(&argc, &argv); DirectFBCreate(&dfb); dfb->SetCooperativeLevel(dfb, DFSCL_FULLSCREEN); // Create the primary surface memset(&dsc, 0, sizeof(DFBSurfaceDescription)); dsc.flags = DSDESC_CAPS; dsc.caps = DSCAPS_PRIMARY; dfb->CreateSurface(dfb, &dsc, &primary); primary->GetSize(primary, &screen_width, &screen_height); // Set font font_dsc.flags = DFDESC_HEIGHT; font_dsc.height = 48; dfb->CreateFont(dfb, DATADIR"DejaVuSans.ttf", &font_dsc, &font); primary->SetFont(primary, font); primary->SetColor(primary, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF); primary->DrawString(primary, text, -1, 300, 300, DSTF_LEFT); primary->Flip(primary, NULL, DSFLIP_WAITFORSYNC); sleep(30); // Cleanup font->Release(font); primary->Release(primary); dfb->Release(dfb); return 0; } On Fri, Sep 5, 2008 at 3:42 PM, rippel tippel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > Hi all, > > I compiled Freetype 2.3.7 and I want to use it with DirectFB 1.2.3. > After installing Freetype in /usr/local/freetype-2.3.7, I'm using > DejaVuSans.ttf (which is in /usr/shared/fonts) to run the third DirectFB > tutorial, writing a short string on the screen... but it remains black. > > Going into the source code I could see that IDirectFBSurface_DrawString() > (src/display/idirectfbsurface.c:1971) returns DFB_MISSINGFONT. > > Did I forget to do something important?
