devkitpro and PALib

Greetings devkitpro community!

I was wondering if someone could help me.

I've been using DevKitPro and PALib together for a while now, and yesterday decided to upgrade to the latest edition of DKP. However, now that I've upgraded I'm getting lists of errors whenever I attempt to build the project. I've tried re-installing DKP and PALib (multiple versions), but nothing seems to fix the problem.

If anyone can help I'd be really appreciative, no one on the PALib forums seems to be able to pin down why this is happening.

I've put in the last part of the error report, in the hope it'll help. The rest of the error report contains similar errors to these, but if needed I can put up the full report. The built project was an empty PALib application .cpp file.

Code: Select all

PAlib has a lot of issues with staying up to date with libnds, resulting in PAlib not working correctly when libnds updates. you can either move to a previous version of devkitARM* (NOT recommanded, everything but the last version contains bugs and isn't supported) and hope somebody updates PAlib soon (although that can take awhile) or just ditch PAlib and use libnds (its getting easier and easier to work with, maybe even to the point where its just as easy as PAlib).

also read this:
http://wiki.devkitpro.org/index.php/PAlib

or you could wait untill a certain person releases his library :roll: . but that may take a while seeing as I'm very busy with school and even when it will come out it will lack a lot of stuff at first.

I know, I know, I shouldn't tell people to downgrade devkitPro. but they will hear it anyway. better tell them the correct story here than that they hear a wrong story elsewhere. and don't delete my post because I posted something you dont like, like you did last time.

Thanks for the honest reply, it's really appreciated. I think I may take up your suggestion about using the libnds package. Since PALib was built over it i'm sure it can't be all that hard (famous last words). At least it compiles correctly :) .

Cheers.
