iOS 8 64bit only form Feb 2015

SinisterSoft · February 2015

@john26 is @ar2rsawseen not able to help with putting the executables on the website - or does @atilim need to do it?

john26 · February 2015

I think either of them can upload the executables but what takes more time is processing the pull request itself. So we are sidestepping this by just releasing replacement libraries.

aditya · February 2015

Good job @john26 and @marcelojunior!

marcelojunior · February 2015

Hello folks, sorry for the delay about this task:

Here are the 64 bits libraries that you can use to build iOS 64 bits apps.
https://github.com/Liberton/gideros/releases/tag/2015.2.20

These libraries contains both binaries (32 and 64 bits) to build with the flag that apple said (https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=10202014a)

If anyone have a doubt, please, contact us (me or @john26)!

-----

The files:

- libgideros.a;
- libgvfs.a;
- liblua.a;
- libluasocket.a;

To build with them, simply override the existing files on an exported project and change the ARCHS flag:
from -> "$(ARCHS_STANDARD_32_BIT)"
to -> "$(ARCHS_STANDARD)"

-----

PS: Please, if you can test your apps and send us feedback if they are ok. On both devices, 32-bit as 64-bit (iPhone 5 is 32 bits, 5s and above is 64 bits).

:-)

Superb! I will try this out on Saturday as currently in Android TV land until then.

MobAmuse · February 2015

@marcelojunior! Do we have to export the lua project without encryption as I get this when I compile with the 64bit stuff in Xcode? works fine as 32 bit tho...

AnimBlur.lua:1: unexpected symbol near ';'

There is nothing wrong with that line tho and I've used this routine untouched in many projects to date.

Odd?

MobAmuse · February 2015

Example...

No encryption:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AnimBlur=Core.class(Sprite)
-- Init sprites
function AnimBlur:init(f,x,y)

With encryption:
;{˛èeÄ˝©xTr&}›ìtÄÅïXI?S@Ï±2^ºÅ≠,JDxtm0Ç≥e†¶ñ{Up*>{˛èeÄ˝©xTr&}›ìtÄÅïXs0>|ﬁÃ1öøªYu"[≠„pÛ“˘s{)"|C[

Hi @MobAmuse,

You get this error when exporting without encryption and build with the libraries?

SinisterSoft · February 2015

As an aside to this - can there be instructions somewhere (for Windows and OSX) as to the steps to compile the whole latest liberton version to executables - eg - what is needed, what steps are involved? It would be pretty handy.

MobAmuse · February 2015

I've not tried it without encryption yet but will Saturday.

yubaro · February 2015

@marcelojunior or @john26, one question, we rename luac to luac2?
There are two luac files in "Gideros Studio/Contents/Tools" (luac and luac.exe)

marcelojunior · February 2015

@MobAmuse okay. :-) Let me know if you (or anyone) get an error with the libraries.

@SinisterSoft one of my plans is to do this. I'm starting to organize scripts to build for windows! You can see some instructions on how to build the player in here: https://github.com/Liberton/gideros/tree/master/player :-P

@yubaro, I do not understand your question, why do you want to rename these files?

---

If you want to replace the 64 bits libraries only once, you can replace this files on template (Gideros/Templates/Xcode4/iOS Template). libgideros.a, libgvfs.a and liblua.a are on the root folder ot template, and libluasocket.a is on the plugins folder)

Remember to change the ARCHS flag in iOS Template.xcodeproj (replace ARCHS_STANDARD_32_BIT to ARCHS_STANDARD), or do it via xcode!

:-)

It seems that works without encryption, I will test with encryption later.

MobAmuse · February 2015

Ah OK that explains it then. Hopefully we will be able encrypt our lua files before submission as that is not so cool of course.

yubaro · February 2015

@marcelojunior

@ar2rsawseen said rename luac to luac2 http://giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/comment/40339#Comment_40339

Error with encryption:
filename.lua:1: unexpected symbol near '/240'

SinisterSoft · February 2015

The encyption isn't so good, it's very easy to reverse it - it needs to be beefed up if having to send out encrypted source code.

MobAmuse · February 2015

Currently having none is even worse LOL

marcelojunior · February 2015

I think that we can use a minifier + encription, what do you think?

https://github.com/stravant/LuaMinify

MobAmuse · February 2015

I have no idea personally but anything is better than none

marcelojunior · February 2015

@yubaro Oooh, renaming this remove the luac compile step!

Yes, I think that we have to do this, because the luac compile only for 32 bits, and not for both architectures!

I will look at this and post something about, soon!

marcelojunior · February 2015

@yubaro, please, rename the luac.exe (to luac2.exe for example) and luac (to luac2).
This will cause that Gideros will not found the compiler (luac.exe) and skip this step. :-)

luac.exe is for windows compiler
luac (without extension) is for macosx

Rename the two files!

PS: if you rename, the android .lua files will not be compiled!

yubaro · February 2015

Problem with AceSlide:

classes/AceSlide.lua: bad header in precompiled chunk

Works well in GiderosPlayer, but in Simulator Xcode no working.

marcelojunior · February 2015

@yubaro, do you have disabled the luac compile step and encryption?

yubaro · February 2015

@marcelojunior, yes, I have tried all the possibilities. I work in Xcode 6.1.1

marcelojunior · February 2015

@yubaru, I will look at this.

I've send a message with my email to talk in a real time chat. :-)

yubaro · February 2015

Thanks @marcelojunior for you help!

I have two problem, the first is banner Admob not displayed on the screen. I use setAlignment in center and bottom(Admob and Iad) and nothing.

Also: Please consider updating your SDK to the most recent sdk version, 7.0.0, to get iOS 8 support

The second is this error, everything works fine and then the game freezes.

int retVal = UIApplicationMain(argc, argv, nil, @AppDelegate);
exc_bad_access code=exc_i386_gpflt

Warning: Attempt to dismiss from view controller while a presentation or dismiss is in progress!

Too:
unexpected nil window in _UIApplicationHandleEventFromQueueEvent, _windowServerHitTestWindow: ; layer = >

(lldb)

SinisterSoft · February 2015

If you are using any of @ar2rsawseen 's plugins then mybe they also need to be recompiled too?

MobAmuse · February 2015

Even compiling iOS 64bit with exported unencrypted lua files I get...

'AnimBlur.lua: bad header in precompiled chunk'

It doesn't like any lua files encrypted or unencrytped on export - compiles but crashes when run on xcode emulator or real device. 32bit version compiles and runs fine.

I am using Gideros v2014.01 as I had nothing but problems with png's with v2014.10

john26 · February 2015

Hi @MobAmuse, hmm looks like we really need to produce a proper version of Gideros... Until then, please try this idea...

I've now shared my iOS project for Nebula Retro using DropBox (with 64 bit support). First check if it compiles/runs. Then, you should be able to replace the "assets" folder with your own assets to export your game as a 64 bit enabled iOS game.

If anyone else wants to try this (and you are on DropBox) please just let me know your email.

marcelojunior · February 2015

Hi Yubaro, this error has caused on ios simulator?
