Your LEO, Framework, c++ example complies with an error

I have noticed that also.

Its fixed in my templates

 

#include "leo.h"
using namespace LEO ;

#if defined( _WINDOWS )
void ErrOut( const char* pstrMessage ) { MessageBoxA(0, pstrMessage, "Error", 0 ); }
int WINAPI WinMain( HINSTANCE hInstance,
					HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
					LPSTR lpCmdLine,
					int nShowCmd ) 
#else
void ErrOut( const std::string& message ) { puts( message.c_str()); }
int main( int argn, char* argv[] )
#endif
{
   // Set graphics mode        
Engine engine("Example - LEO with Framework",1024,768);        
if( !engine.IsValid() )        
{                
	ErrOut( "Failed to set graphics mode.");
	return 1;        
}        

// Create framework object and set it to a global object so other scripts can access it        
Framework fw;        
fw.Create();                
if( NULL == fw )        
{               
	ErrOut( "Failed to initialize engine." );
	return 1;        
}        

// Set Lua framework object        
engine.SetObject( "fw", fw );                

// Set Lua framework variable        
Lua lua;        
lua.Create();        
lua.PushObject( fw );        
lua.SetGlobal( "fw" );        
lua.Pop( 1 );        

// Get framework main camera        
fw.main.camera.SetPosition( Vec3(0,0,-2) );        

Material material( "abstract::cobblestones.mat" );        
Cube mesh( CREATENOW );        
mesh.Paint( material );        

Cube ground( CREATENOW );        
ground.Scale( Vec3(10,1,10) );        
ground.SetPosition( Vec3(0,-2,0) );        
ground.Paint( material );        

DirectionalLight light( CREATENOW );        
light.SetRotation( Vec3(45) );        

while( !engine.IsTerminated() )        
{                
	mesh.Turn( Vec3( AppSpeed()*0.5f ) );                        
	fw.Update();                
	fw.Render();                
	engine.Flip( 0 );        
}                

return engine.Free();
}

I think a better way to fix the MessageBox problem is to set character set: "not set" in the project properties.

Else you run into the same problem with all other Windows functions too.

Yes. Thats will have same effect as MessageBoxA.

So my the sample will then use MessageBox for Windows (compiled non-unicode)

and puts for Console (I might in fact use std::cerr instead).
