PtFlash usage

Hello

Does anybody know where I can find information on using the PtFlash widget
in PhAB. I have created a very simple application with just the PtFlash
widget however when I build the application in PhAB I receive the error
below. Any ideas as to where I can find information on using PtFlash? I
can’t find any documentation whatsoever.

Cheers

Malcolm

It’s now documented here. There’s just one resource:

Pt_ARG_FLASH_FILE

C type Pt type Default

char * String NULL

The full path of the Shockwave Flash file (extension .swf or .SWF) to
display. The file starts to play as soon as you set this resource.

Note: The file must exist on your filesystem; PtFlash doesn’t
support http://… URLs.

You need to add “-l PtFlash” to the linker options (LDFLAGS/SDFLAGS in a
PhAB Makefile). The next version of PhAB will do that for you. (But
you’ll have to remove your Makefile to let PhAB generate a new one –
PhAB never modifies an existing Makefile.)

I found you also need to add “-l asound” as well as the “-l PtFlash” in the
linker options of the Makefile and have a correctly installed audio driver
for the flash file to play.
