SDK Bugs?

Or is it my setup?

I'm using Indigo as the Roku IDE and have experienced many issues with the SDK examples/source directory

These range from the easily fixable errors (videoplayer) to complicated hard to trace errors (snake)

With videoplayer its a case of simply fixing the highlighted bits of code in Eclipse (multiple elseif statements)

When it comes to Snake it deploys OK but then bombs out with the following in Debugger...

059: if (app.bitmapset=invalid) then stop

Samples are meant to teach but you can't learn a lot from broken code unless you know how to fix it in the first place

Re: SDK Bugs?

No, it is the samples, some are broken. The most current set of example files can be found here:

Re: SDK Bugs?

Same problem - snake also broken there

I'm specifically looking for something (anything) that does Canvas2D as that would appear the good starting point to render arbitrary web pages (view only - no browser functionality)

Re: SDK Bugs?

The version on Sourceforge works fine for me on Roku legacy, Roku2 and Roku3 devices.

Here are a couple of ifDraw2D apps I created that might be helpful:
