JUCE 8 Build Errors

[Lurch]

Also getting this issue - I have graphical elements dependent on JUCE 8, is there any movement on this yet?
I'm on latest commit etc

[David Healey]

@Lurch Nothing yet :(

[ustk]

Yeah I hope we’ll get this soin too so heavy vector UI can react with a lesser lag…

[David Healey]

@ustk explain?

[Lurch]

@David-Healey I had this working on an older commit but realized on export that the exporter wasn't picking up any Xcode, xcpretty etc etc so I updated to the latest commit, where the exporter now works fine (ish, I have to start the compile in HISE, cancel it and then build from the auto generated xproj) - but now JUCE 8 is broken :(
I have two custom shaders that rely on JUCE 8 to work so I can't really progress on those two projects until this is sorted.

[ustk]

@David-Healey Afaik JUCE8 is more oriented toward GPU acceleration for faster UI response and better resolution as well for smoother design.
I often hit a limitation regarding how fast (or how slow I should say) my UIs are reacting.

I'd also like to be able to finally use shaders, which might be better handled in JUCE8. That being said, I don't know if this fixes platform related issues we have (Win/Mac being picky with openGL/shaders)

[Lurch]

@ustk They're much better handled in JUCE 8 in my experience, I've built two shader based elements that work well in JUCE 8 when compiled as panels into a HISE build, I have had a lot of issues with GPU rendering though currently doing the work on CPU until I work that out. Annoyingly these depend on JUCE 8 functionality so neither works now I've had to downgrade to JUCE 6. Fingers crossed this is sorted soon!

@Lurch Not seeing anything in recent commits about JUCE 8 - has anyone found a way we can get this going ourselves? Healey did Claude find the relevant bits?

[dannytaurus]

@ustk @Lurch Don't forget @Christoph-Hart has stripped a bunch of stuff from the version of JUCE 8 customised for HISE.

So unless things have changed, the graphics stuff you're looking forward to might not be available to you, even when JUCE 8 is working smoothly with HISE.

@dannytaurus That is a massive, massive bummer. I hadn't seen that. Guess I'm going down a rabbit hole trying to get the graphics portions working again, I 'just' need GLSL shaders working again, it worked fine in an older build of HISE so hopefully not too much to work out.
