I want to start coding

[drEDN4wt]

try lua on the psp, it doesn't need to be compiled, its basic and using ttlde (notepad editor for lua 1.6 or 1.7) you can write a script and run it in one app.
you dont even need a pc.

ugh coding...i'll just wait for one of those code generators with a point and click front end lol

[potatoman]

tried it with c mesoade, believe me its a lot more fun and rewarding to learn the language straight up, as im doing now.(used 2 use VB, got boredof the limitations... i like to make things EXACTLY how i like them, VB took too long to understand how to do that. It was good to begin learning, but now... nah. good luck to you distortional and the people in the dev forums are sure to help you if u run into trouble.

hey, guys, i'm new too, just wondering.. do you know any good places to learn c?

If you have literally just started programming, I really recommend you don't use the PSP as your first development platform and switch to PC. However, that is just my recommendation. The problem is not learning the language but learning how to use it and how to program and this can take months to years. This will be even harder if you are using a platform such as the PSP which is relatively restictive, getting code from compiling to PSP to test is a lot longer then doing it on the PC, debugging is even more a chore, basically the amount of time you spend not programming is longer. Just mu opinion though.

Heh.. I also just started coding today. Can't even get "hello world" to work......pathetic

Anyone know what this means?

$ make
psp-gcc -I. -I/usr/local/pspdev/psp/sdk/include -O2 -G0 -Wall -L. -L/usr/local/
pspdev/psp/sdk/lib main.c -lpspdebug -lpspdisplay -lpspge -lpspctrl -lpspsdk
-lc -lpspnet -lpspnet_inet -lpspnet_apctl -lpspnet_resolver -lpsputility -lpspus
er -lpspkernel -o hello.elf
main.c: In function 'main':
main.c:41: error: syntax error before 'SetupCallbacks'
make: *** [hello.elf] Error 1

^me trying to compile it. I don't know how to fix this problem,

but it may be refering to the syntax of this line

thid = sceKernelCreateThread("update_thread", CallbackThread, 0x11, 0xFA0, 0, 0);

U did that wrong the hello world app is suposta be like this

blue = Color.new(0, 0, 255)
screenrint(200, 130, "Hello World!", blue)
screen.flip()
while true do
screen.waitVblankStart()
end


kk that should help ya... If ur in lua....

I think he is doing c++

That means you have an error in line 41 of your main file
