Data Structures
camera
typedef struct vector4 camera;
A camera is a struct vector4 that stores information about what vector objects should be drawned in the screen and where to draw them. The variables "x" and "y" stores the camera coordinates. The "w" stores the camera's width and "z" is the camera's height.
Normally a camera draws averything occuping the whole screen. This behaviour can be changed storing the coordinates to where to draw in the pointers "previous", "next", "top" and "down". This is done when you call the function limit_camera.
circle
typedef struct vector3 circle;
A circle is in fact a vector3. The coordinates of the circle's center are stored in the variables "x" and "y". The circle's radius is stored in "z".
polygon
typedef struct vector2 polygon;
A polygon is in fact a vector2. But it can be attached to other vector2s.
A polygon with 1 vertex (henagon) would be a single vector2. Polygons with more vertices would have one vector2 for each vertex where 2 adjacent vertices will always be connected by the *next and *previous pointers. Their variables x and y will store the vertex's coordinates.
rectangle
typedef struct vector4 rectangle;
A rectangle represents a simple quadrilateral whose sides are always paralel with the screen sides. In fact, it is an alias for struct vector4 because any rectangle with these properties can be described using four variables. The variables "x" and "y" store the coordinates of the rectangle's upper left edge. The variable "w" is the width and "z" is the height.
surface
typedef struct surface{ Pixmap pix; int width; int height; Pixmap mask; } surface;
A surface represents an image, that can drawn or manipuled by other functions. Some functions as new_image can be used to create a new surface from a PNG image. You can also use the new_surface function to create an empty surface with a predefined width and height.
The surface's variables width and height stores the image's width and height. The pixmap pix stores a number that represents the image in the X Server. And the pixmap mask stores a number that represents a bitmap (a pixmap with only 2 colors) that determines which areas in the image are transparent.
struct vector2
struct vector2{ float x, y; struct vector2 *previous, *next; };
A vector is a structure able to store an ordered sequence of data. A vector2 is a structure able to store 2 ordered values. Both of them are floats.
They can represent anything that needs 2 floats to be defined. The coordinates of a point, the strenght applied in a body, the displacement of an object relative to a previous position, and much more. It stores these values in the variables "x" and "y".
They also have 2 pointers that can store other vector2s address. So you can use vector2s as nodes in a doubly-linked list. The two generic pointers that every vector2 have are named "previous" and "next".
struct vector3
struct vector3{ float x, y, z; struct vector3 *previous, *top, *next; };
A vector3 can be used to represent anything formed by 3 variables. A point in a 3D enviroment, information about circles, strenght applied in a 3-dimentional body, and much more. These values are stored in the variables "x", "y" and "z".
They also have pointers to connect with other vector3s. This can form more advanced data structure this way, like trees and graphs. These pointers are named "previous", "next" and "top".
struct vector4
struct vector4{ float w, x, y, z; struct vector4 *previous, *next, *top, *down; };
A vector4 can be used to represent anything formed by 4 variables. A point in the space-time, information about ellipses, rectangles and much more. The information is stored in the variables "w", "x", "y" and "z".
They also have pointers to connect with other vector4s. They can form this way more advanced data structure. These pointers are called "previous", "next", "top" and "down".
Functions
void
apply_texture(surface *texture, surface *destiny)
void apply_texture(struct surface *src, struct surface *dest){ int x, y; if(src -> width < 1 || src -> height < 1) return; for(x = 0; x < dest -> width; x += src -> width) for(y = 0; y < dest -> height; y += src -> height){ XCopyArea(_dpy, src -> pix, dest -> pix, _gc, 0, 0, src -> width, src -> height, x, y); } XFlush(_dpy); }
This function fills the second surface with a texture provided by the first surface. Pixels marked as transparent in the destiny surface are kept as transparent.
This function returns nothing.
void
awake_the_weaver(void)
void awake_the_weaver(void){ _initialize_screen(); _initialize_keyboard(); _initialize_mouse(); srand(time(NULL)); gettimeofday(¤t_time, NULL); fps = 50; _music = 0; _sound = 0; }
This is the first function that shall be called in a Weaver Game. It initializes all the variables and data required to use the other functions.
If you start a Weaver program with awake_the_weaver, you should call may_the_weaver_sleep to free any memory reserved by awake_the_weaver.
Notice that if you use the Weaver API with the Weaver Framework, these functions are positioned in your code automaticly.
This function returns nothing.
void
blit_masked_pixmap(Pixmap pix, Pixmap mask, surface *dest, int x_src, int y_src, int width,
int height, int x_mask, int y_mask, int x_dest, int y_dest)
void blit_masked_pixmap(Pixmap pix, Pixmap mask, struct surface *dest, int x_src, int y_src, int width, int height, int x_mask, int y_mask, int x_dest, int y_dest){ XSetClipMask(_dpy, _gc, mask); XSetClipOrigin(_dpy, _gc, x_dest - x_mask, y_dest - y_mask); XCopyArea(_dpy, pix, dest -> pix, _gc, x_src, y_src, width, height, x_dest, y_dest); XSetClipMask(_dpy, _gc, None); XFlush(_dpy); }
A surface is formed by a pixmap (a matrix of colors) and a mask (a matrix of 1s and 0s, defining what bits in the image should be drawn). When you use a command to draw a surface in the screen, the image is formed combining the surface's pixmap and mask. But using this function, you can draw an image in some surface (including the window) combining a surface's pixmap with the mask found in some other surface.
The first and second arguments are the pixmap and mask that should be used. The third is the destiny. Then we define what rectangular area from the pixmap should we use passins as arguments the (x,y) coordinate of the left upper vertex and the rectangle's width and height. The next two values are the coordinates of a rectangle with the same size in the mask that we should use to compose the image. And finally, the (x,y) coordinate in where we should draw the result in the destiny.
For example, if we have the surfaces "smile" and "fog", and we wish to draw in the upper left part of the screen the smile pixmap with the fog mask. Assuming that the two surfaces have the same dimensions, and we wish to draw the entire image, we should use:
blit_masked_pixmap(smile -> pix, fog -> mask, window, 0, 0, smile -> width, smile -> height, 0, 0, 0, 0);
This function returns nothing.
void
blit_surface(surface *src, surface *dest, int x_src, int y_src, int width, int height, int x_dest, int y_dest)
void blit_surface(struct surface *src, struct surface *dest, int x_src, int y_src, int width, int height, int x_dest, int y_dest){ // If the source surface has some transparent pixels, we need to take into // account this: if(src -> mask != None){ XSetClipMask(_dpy, _gc, src -> mask); XSetClipOrigin(_dpy, _gc, x_dest - x_src, y_dest - y_src); } XCopyArea(_dpy, src -> pix, dest -> pix, _gc, x_src, y_src, width, height, x_dest, y_dest); XSetClipMask(_dpy, _gc, None); XFlush(_dpy); }
This function copies a rectangle whose upper left vertex is in coordinate (x_src, y_src) and whose width and height is passed as argument from the surface "src" and copies it in the surface "dest".
Pixels with transparent values aren't copied.
This function returns nothing.
void
center_camera(camera *cam, float x, float y)
void center_camera(struct vector4 *camera, float x, float y){ camera -> x = x - (camera -> w / 2); camera -> y = y - (camera -> z / 2); }
This centers the camera in coordinate (x, y). It doesn't change the camera's size, only it's position.
This function returns nothing.
void
clean_keyboard(void)
#define clean_keyboard() _initialize_keyboard()
This function cleans the keyboard buffer. You can use it when you wants to ignore keys pressed during a frame or doesn't want to have keys previously pressed to interfere with future events.
This function returns nothing.
int

This function receives as argument a circle and a polygon. If the 2 are colliding (exists at least 1 point of the polygon's perimeter inside the circle), it returns 1. Otherwise, it returns 0.
This function works obtaining the equation of the rect that crosses all the points of each polygon's edge. If this rect doesn't collide with the circle, there's no reason to do other operations and returns 0. Otherwise, we must check if the closest rect's point to the circle's center is in the polygon's edge. If so, returns 1. Else, returns 0. Vertical segments are treated differently to prevent division by 0.

DEBUG_TIMER_START()
DEBUG_TIMER_STOP()
#define DEBUG_TIMER_START() { struct timeval _begin, _end; \ XFlush(_dpy); \ gettimeofday(&_begin, NULL); #define DEBUG_TIMER_STOP() gettimeofday(&_end, NULL); \ printf("%ld\n", (1000000 * (_end.tv_sec - _begin.tv_sec) + \ _end.tv_usec - _begin.tv_usec)); \ }

void move_circle(struct vector3 *circ, float x, float y){ if(circ == NULL) return; circ -> x += x; circ -> y += y; }
This moves the circle "circ" at "x" units in the X-axis and "y" units in the Y-axis.
It's the programmer's responsability to check for overflows. If an overflow happens, probably the circle will teleport itself for some strange location.
This function returns nothing.
void
move_polygon(struct vector2 *poly, float x, float y)
void move_polygon(struct vector2 *poly, float x, float y){ struct vector2 *first_vertex, *current_vertex; if(poly == NULL) return; first_vertex = current_vertex = poly; do{ current_vertex -> x += x; current_vertex -> y += y; current_vertex = current_vertex -> next; }while(current_vertex != first_vertex); }
This moves the polygon "poly" "x" coordinates in the X-axis and "y" coordinates in the Y-axis. It works moving all the vertices of a polygon.
Overflow checking is the programmer's responsability. If an overflow happens, a weird undefined behaviour can happen. Probably the polygon will become huge and/or deformed for some moments or permanently.
This function returns nothing.
camera *
new_camera(float x, float y, float width, float height)
#define new_camera(x, y, width, height) new_vector4(width, x, y, height)
This allocates space in memory for a new camera and returns a pointer to it's address. If the process fails, the function returns NULL instead.
The arguments represent a rectangle that's the are covered by the camera. The (x, y) are the rectangle's coordinates and the other arguments are the rectangle's width and height.
Every memory allocated for a camera should be freed with free or destroy_camera functions.

#define new_camera_h(x, y, height) new_vector4(height * \ ((float) window_width / \ (float) window_height), \ x, y, height)
This allocates space for a new camera positioned in the coordinates (x, y) and whose height is passed as the third argument. The camera's width is calculed automaticly according with the screen's resolution. This prevents images distortions.
Every memory allocated for a camera should be freed with free or destroy_camera functions.
camera *
new_camera_w(float x, float y, float width)
#define new_camera_w(x, y, width) new_vector4(width, x, y, width * \ ((float) window_height / \ (float) window_width))
This allocates space for a new camera positioned in the coordinates (x, y) and whose width is passed as the third argument. The camera's height is calculed automaticly according with your screen's resolution. This prevents images distortions.
Every memory allocated for a camera should be freed with free or destroy_camera functions.
circle *
new_circle(float x, float y, float radius)
#define new_circle(x, y, z) new_vector3(x, y, z)
This allocates space in memory for a new circle and return a pointer to it's address. If no more memory is available, it returns NULL instead.
Every allocated circle shall be destroyed with destroy_circle or free.

First this function search in the directory "/usr/share/games/YOURGAME/images" for the PNG image that you passed as argument. If the game is installed, it should find the image. Else, it searches for the directory "images/" in your current directory and try to find it there. Doing this, it'll find the image when the game is installed, and also when you're still developing your game.
Note that if you install the game and then change some image in the images/ directory, to see the changes, you should install the game again.
If no image is found, or some error happens while decoding the image, the function returns NULL. Else, it returns a surface with the given image. The transparency mask is built according with the value of transparent variable. If a given pixel has the same value than this variable, the function considers it transparent.
This function stills doesn't support the alpha channel in PNG images.

struct vector2 *new_polygon(int number_of_vertices, ...){ struct vector2 *new_vector = NULL; struct vector2 *first_vector = NULL, *previous_vector; va_list args; float x, y; int vertices = number_of_vertices; previous_vector = NULL; va_start(args, number_of_vertices); for(;number_of_vertices > 0; number_of_vertices --){ x = (float) va_arg(args, double); y = (float) va_arg(args, double); new_vector = new_vector2(x, y); if(new_vector == NULL){ if(previous_vector != NULL){ previous_vector -> next = first_vector; first_vector -> previous = previous_vector; destroy_polygon(first_vector); } return new_vector; } if(previous_vector != NULL) connect_vector2(previous_vector, new_vector); else first_vector = new_vector; previous_vector = new_vector; } if(vertices > 0){ new_vector -> next = first_vector; first_vector -> previous = new_vector; } return first_vector; }
This function allocates the space in memory for a new polygon. If there's no space, the function gives up and return NULL.
The first argument is the number o vertices. Then, the function expects to find 2*N other arguments, being N the number of vertices, because each vertex have 2 float numbers that represent it's coordinates.
The order in wich you pass the coordinates is important. This is the order in which the vertices will be drawn and connected. Here's some examples:
new_polygon(0); // Nonsense. Returns NULL new_polygon(1, 2.0, 3.0); // A single point in coordinate(2.0, 3.0) new_polygon(5, 0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 1.0, 2.0, 0.0); // Pentagon new_polygon(5, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 2.0, 0.0, -1.0, 1.0, 3.0, 1.0); // Pentagram
This way, you can create simple or complex, concave or convex polygons. To free the memory allocated, use destroy_polygon. The function free doesn't work here because a polygon isn't (in most cases) a single vector2, but a set of interconnected vectors.
rectangle *
new_rectangle(float x, float y, float width, float height)
#define new_rectangle(x, y, w, z) new_vector4(w, x, y, z)
This function allocates space for a new rectangle with the width and height passed as arguments and whose upper left vertex is in the coordinate (x, y) also passed as argument. The function returns a pointer for the new rectangle. If the process fails, it returns NULL instead.
Every allocated rectangle should be freed with free or destroy_rectangle functions.
struct surface *
new_surface(int width, int height)
struct surface *new_surface(int width, int height){ struct surface *my_surf; if(width <= 0 || height <= 0) return NULL; my_surf = (struct surface *) malloc(sizeof(struct surface)); if(my_surf != NULL){ my_surf -> pix = XCreatePixmap(_dpy, _w, width, height, _depth); my_surf -> width = width; my_surf -> height = height; my_surf -> mask = XCreatePixmap(_dpy, _w, width, height, 1ul); if(_mask_gc == None) _mask_gc = XCreateGC(_dpy, my_surf -> mask, 0, NULL); XSetForeground(_dpy, _mask_gc, ~0l); XFillRectangle(_dpy, my_surf -> mask, _mask_gc, 0, 0, my_surf -> width, my_surf -> height); } return my_surf; }
This function receives as argument a width and height in pixels and returns a pointer to an empty surface with the given size.
If the function fails while allocating new space in the memory, it returns NULL instead.
struct vector2 *
new_vector2(float x, float y)
struct vector2 *new_vector2(float x, float y){ struct vector2 *vector; vector = (struct vector2 *) malloc(sizeof(struct vector2)); if(vector != NULL){ vector -> x = x; vector -> y = y; vector -> previous = vector -> next = NULL; } return vector; }
This creates a new struct vector2 whose "x" and "y" values are defined by the values passed as arguments. The pointers "previous" and "next" are set to NULL. Then, it returns a pointer for the new vector. If this process fails for some reason, it returns NULL.
Every created vector shall be destroyed with free or destroy_vector2 functions.
struct vector3 *
new_vector3(float x, float y, float z)
struct vector3 *new_vector3(float x, float y, float z){ struct vector3 *new_vector; new_vector = (struct vector3 *) malloc(sizeof(struct vector3)); if(new_vector != NULL){ new_vector -> previous = new_vector -> next = new_vector -> top = NULL; new_vector -> x = x; new_vector -> y = y; new_vector -> z = z; } return new_vector; }
This creates a new struct vector3 whose "x", "y" and "z" values are defined by those passed as arguments. The pointers "previous", "next" and "top" are set to NULL. Then, it returns a pointer for the new vector. If this process fails, the function returns NULL.
Every created vector3 shall be destroyed with free or destroy_vector3 functions.
struct vector4 *
new_vector4(float w, float x, float y, float z)
struct vector4 *new_vector4(float w, float x, float y, float z){ struct vector4 *vector; vector = (struct vector4 *) malloc(sizeof(struct vector4)); if(vector != NULL){ vector -> previous = vector -> next = vector -> top = vector -> down = NULL; vector -> w = w; vector -> x = x; vector -> y = y; vector -> z = z; } return vector; }
This creates a new struct vector4 whose "w", "x", "y" and "z" values are defined by those passed as arguments. The pointers "previous", "next", "top" and "down" are set to NULL. Then, it returns a pointer for the new vector. If this process fails, the function returns NULL.
Every created vector4 shall be destroyed with free or destroy_vector4 functions.
void
play_music(char *file)
void play_music(char *file){ if(_music) kill(_music, 9); if(!(_music = fork())){ for(;;) _play_soundfile(file, "music/"); } }
This function creates a new thread that plays an Ogg Vorbis file.
The new thread searches for the file in "/usr/share/games/YOURGAME/music/". If the game is installed, the file is probably there. If not, it searches for the sound inside the "music" directory in your current directory.
The new thread never stops to play the music. When the music is over, it stars to play it again from the beginning. If you wish to stop the music, use the stop_music function.
This function returns nothing.
void
play_sound(char *file)
void play_sound(char *file){ if(!fork()){ _play_soundfile(file, "sound/"); exit(0); } }
This function creates a new thread that plays an Ogg Vorbis file.
The new thread searches for the file in "/usr/share/games/YOURGAME/sound/". If the game is installed, the file is probably there. If not, it searches for the sound inside the "sound" directory in your current directory.
The new thread open doesn't communicate with the main program. The sound is played until the end or until the end of the program. This function was created to handle only minor sound effects, nothing long like a music.
This function returns nothing.
void
rotate_circle(struct vector3 *circ, float x, float y, float rad)
void rotate_circle(struct vector3 *circ, float x, float y, float rad){ long double new_x, new_y; if(circ == NULL) return; new_x = (long double) circ -> x - (long double) x; new_y = (long double) circ -> y - (long double) y; new_x = new_x * cosl((long double) rad) - new_y * sinl((long double) rad); new_y = ((long double) circ -> x - (long double) x) * sinl((long double) rad) + new_y * cosl((long double) rad); circ -> x = (float) (new_x + (long double) x); circ -> y = (float) (new_y + (long double) y); }
This applies a linear transformation in the circle's center coordinates. This makes the circle "circ" rotates around the axis (x, y) at "rad" radians.
It's the programmer's responsability to check for overflows. If an overflow happens, probably the circle will teleport itself for some strange location.
This function returns nothing.
void
rotate_polygon(struct vector2 *poly, float x, float y, float rad)
void rotate_polygon(struct vector2 *poly, float x, float y, float rad){ long double new_x, new_y; struct vector2 *first_vector, *current_vector; if(poly == NULL) return; first_vector = current_vector = poly; do{ new_x = (long double) current_vector -> x - (long double) x; new_y = (long double) current_vector -> y - (long double) y; new_x = new_x * cosl((long double) rad) - new_y * sinl((long double) rad); new_y = ((long double) current_vector -> x - (long double) x) * sinl((long double) rad) + new_y * cosl((long double) rad); current_vector -> x = (float) (new_x + (long double) x); current_vector -> y = (float) (new_y + (long double) y); current_vector = current_vector -> next; }while(current_vector != first_vector); }
Rotates the polygon "poly" at "rad" radians in the axis (x, y). It changes all the coordinates of polygon's vertices doing a linear transformation.
It's the programmer's responsability to check for overflows. If an overflow happens, probably the polygon will be severely deformed temporarily or permanently.
This function returns nothing.
void
stop_music(void)
void stop_music(void){ if(_music) kill(_music, 9); }
This function checks if there's some music playing. If so, it sends a signal that kills the thread that is playing the music.
This function returns nothing.
void
weaver_rest(long nanoseconds)
void weaver_rest(long nanoseconds){ XdbeSwapInfo info; info.swap_window = _w; info.swap_action = XdbeCopied; struct timespec req = {0, nanoseconds}; nanosleep(&req, NULL); _b_frame.tv_sec = current_time.tv_sec; _b_frame.tv_usec = current_time.tv_usec; gettimeofday(¤t_time, NULL); fps = 1000000 / (1000000 * (current_time.tv_sec - _b_frame.tv_sec) + current_time.tv_usec - _b_frame.tv_usec); if(fps == 0) fps = 1; XdbeSwapBuffers(_dpy, &info, 1); }
This function pauses the program for the number of nanoseconds passed as argument. It's very usefull to prevent your program to consume 100% of your CPU cicles inside the main loop.
If you use the Weaver framework, this function is positioned inside the program's main loop automaticly.
Remember that 1,000,000,000 nanoseconds = 1 second.
This function returns nothing.
void
zoom_camera(struct vector4 *camera, float zoom)
void zoom_camera(struct vector4 *cam, float zoom){ float x, y; // Storing the central point x = cam -> x + (cam -> w / 2); y = cam -> y + (cam -> z / 2); // Zooming cam -> w /= zoom; cam -> z /= zoom; // Restoring the central point cam -> x = x - (cam -> w / 2); cam -> y = y - (cam -> z / 2); }
This function is used to zooms in and out a camera. The second argument passed is how bigger you wish the images. A 2.0 shows all the objects with double size. A 0.5 makes everything half-sized.
Please, don't pass 0 or negative numbers to the function.
This function returns nothing.
Global Variables
surface *background;
When you erase some element in the screen, the element is replaced by pixels from the background surface.
By default, the background is entirely black.
struct timeval current_time
This variable stores the current time with microsecond precision. To get the current time in seconds, access current_time -> tv_sec; and to get the microsecond count, access current_time -> tv_usec.
This variable is initialized in awake_the_weaver function and it's always updated in the weaver_rest function.
int fps
This variable stores in how many frames per second the game is running. It's updated automaticly by weaver_rest function.
int keyboard[KEYS]
This is the keyboard buffer. It's a vector with as many positions as recogniseable keys in your keyboard. By default, all positions have the value 0. When you presses a key, the key's correspondent position in the vector has it's value incremented by 1, each frame. When you release the key, it's value becames 0.
This variable is updated every turn by get_input function.
struct{ int pressed, changed, x, y; } mouse
This variable stores your mouse's information. By default, "pressed" and "changed" values are 0. And "x", "y" always stores the mouse's coordinates. In the frame where you change the mouse's position, "changed" value becomes 1. In the frame where you click with the mouse, "clicked" value becomes 1.
This variable is updated every frame by get_input function.
unsigned long transparent_color
By default this variable value is 0x00029a. When you create a new surface from a PNG image, for example, all the pixels with this value will be considered transparent. You can change this variable to other values if you wish. This variable is initialized in awake_the_weaver function.
surface *window
This surface represents our window. Every surface blitted in the window surface is blitted in the screen.
This is an unusual surface because you can't use it's mask. A window doesn't have a mask pixmap. This variable is initialized in awake_the_weaver function.
int window_height
This variable stores the window height in pixels. This variable is initialized in awake_the_weaver function.
int window_width
This variable stores the window width in pixels. This variable is initialized in awake_the_weaver function.
