Homebrew 3ds.h: no such file or directory

[StackMasher]

I'm trying to get into 3ds homebrew development but I'm facing a problem with this code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <3ds.h>

int main()
{
   //Initialise console
   gfxInitDefault();
   consoleInit(GFX_TOP,NULL);

   //Print hello world
   printf("Hello World!");

   //Main loop
   while (aptMainLoop())
   {
     gfxFlushBuffers();
     gfxSwapBuffers();
     gspWaitForVblank();
   }

   //Exit
   gfxExit();
   return 0;
}

Here's what bash looks like:

stackmasher@stackmasher-Precision-WorkStation-T3400 ~ $ /opt/devkitPro/devkitARM/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc /media/stackmasher/cfca4fc1-f4ef-4ffd-a2d3-cf6fc050941e/Programming/learn/3ds/main.c

Well, do you have 3ds.h? What's the output of ls?

Always nice to see a new face and even though I can't help you welcome to GBAtemp

Did you add devkitarm to your environment variables?

Did you add devkitarm to your environment variables?

stackmasher@stackmasher-Precision-WorkStation-T3400 ~ $ printenv DEVKITARM
/opt/devkitPro/devkitARM

Sorry if I'm being a bit of an idiot, I'm just used to apt configuring libraries and putting everything in its place for me

 

[PabloMK7]

Did you restart your PC?

Did you follow the instructions here? - http://devkitpro.org/wiki/Getting_Started

Once devkitarm is installed and configured then you probably want to get the latest version of ctrulib from git. You will need to compile and install it. https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib
make && make install

I used a perl script from the gbatemp wiki
Ah and it looks like libctru is what I needed all along
sigh I wish there was a proper tutorial for this stuff

So devkitpro is a cross-compiler and C library port, and libctru provides useful functions like hidScanInput?

https://www.3dbrew.org/wiki/Setting_up_Development_Environment worked for me fine.

Yeah, that works well. Though none of the examples build with a recent build of ctrulib afaik lol.

Yeah, that was the only "problem". Was able to easily fix by cloning the latest libctru and building it though.

I thought those examples used outdated stuff and don't build with a newer build of ctrulib?

HID worked for me. Haven't really tried any other ones, though.

Welp, not like it matters much I suppose.
