Re: [PD] Easiest way to connect a wiimote to pd on ubuntu

Also, here's a patch that pix and I did at AVLAB/Medialab Prado last
Sept. It fixes some bugs in the original. This code was used to get
data from 5 wiimotes at once.

Also, I want to make a quick wii demo, did that Pd wii code that you did for AVLAB ever get posted anywhere? I'd like to use that.

i've attached a patch against

http://mikewoz.com/downloads/wiimote_0.6.00.tar.gz

you will need to play with the makefile, it wasn't made in the most
cross-platform way...

Thanks IOhannes.

It's finally ok. here the steps :

• recompile cwiid
• then add #include "cwiid_internal.h" in the wiimote.c (that was my

mistake there)

• copy the file from cwiid src to the same dir
• copy the libcwiid.a from cwiid to /usr/lib
• compile wiimote

So I've recompile the libcwii 6.0.0 (you must edit the code and
change hci_remote_name to hci_read_remote_name that is deprecated)

hmm, i guess it would be better to change the name in wiimote
rather than libcwii

but wiimote.c is still not compilling : make cc -DPD -O2 -funroll-loops -fomit-frame-pointer -W -Wshadow - Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-unused -Wno-parentheses -Wno-switch -I/usr/ local/include -o wiimote.o -c wiimote.c wiimote.c: In function ‘cwiid_callback’: wiimote.c:238: erreur: déréférencement d'un pointeur de type

i still don't understand why you get this...but: i seem to use the sources of libcwiid for inclusion (hardcoded
paths in the externals) rather than the installed sources (from the
debian package).

can't really help you though...
