[cocos2d-x] Compilation errors

mickmak

Hi there,

I just bought a license of Spine but I am new to Spine and trying to put the Spine runtime in my cocos2dx project. (which is pretty old, version is 3.12)
I followed the guideline from the Github page:
https://github.com/EsotericSoftware/spine-runtimes/tree/3.6/spine-cocos2dx

Removed my project copy and put the newly downloaded runtimes classes into it. (branch v3.6)

Then I tried to compile the project, I got some compilation errors, for example:
Line 138 in "spine-cocos2dx/src/spine/SkeletonRenderer.cpp"

setGLProgramState(GLProgramState::getOrCreateWithGLProgramName(GLProgram::SHADER_NAME_POSITION_TEXTURE_COLOR_NO_MVP, texture));

Too many arguments to function call, expected single argument 'glProgramName', have 2 arguments

Line 136 in "spine-cocos2dx/src/spine/SkeletonBatch.cpp"

command->init(globalOrder, texture, glProgramState, blendType, triangles, mv, flags);

No matching member function for call to 'init'

Is this issue because of my cocos2dx version is out-dated for Spine runtime library?
Should I upgrade my cocos2dx to 3.17? (Is the runtime v3.6 version support cc2dx 3.17?)
or is there anywhere can I get a Spine runtime that support in 3.12 as well as the latest Spine editor?

Any help will be appreciated. :sweat:

Yes, I'm afraid that's an issue with your cocos2d-x version. You can find the last version of the spine-cocos2dx runtime supporting cocos2d-x 3.12 here GitHub - EsotericSoftware/spine-runtimes at 82adb733cb883eb61e5f7cb6c052806a1b88c7d6. Please note that this runtime supports exports from Spine Editor version 3.5x, but not exports from newer Spine Editor versions. You will have to downgrade your Spine installation to a 3.5.x version, which you can do in the settings.

I would highly recommend updating to the latest Spine Editor, Spine Runtime and cocos2d-x version though. We can't be back-porting fixes to a 2 year old runtime I'm afraid.

Thanks for the advice! I decided trying to upgrade my project to cocos2dx 3.17. I can view my created spine animation in the test project now 🙂 Rest is due with bunch of errors from migration sigh..
