Setting up a basic framework with XNA
Setting up a basic framework with Direct3D:
DirectX TK
Direct3D (native)
Direct3D with XAML and XAML with Direct3D app
Porting XNA to Asha Touch
-
XNA vs Direct3D
XNA
Pros:- Simple setup and easy to use- Legacy support- Can be quickly ported to Asha
Touch
Cons:- Unable to use WP8 APIs: In-app
purchase, NFC, Bluetooth- Lack of native code support
Direct3D
Pros:- Best performance- Leverage on WP8 APIs: In-app
purchase, NFC, Bluetooth- Native code support- Flexibility to add nice game
effects
Cons:- Requiring quite a lot steps to set
up at the beginning- Fairly complex to use

Direct3D
DirectX TK (Toolkit)There is a collection of helper classes united under the name of DirectX Tool Kit [4] - or in short DirectX TK - started by Shawn Hargreaves. This library contains convenience classes that help write code that uses Direct X. It also contains a tool called MakeSpriteFont that can create fonts to be used in game.

Draw Image
Load resource
1. Declare texture in GameRenderer.h:ID3D11ShaderResourceView* m_catTexture;
2. Include DDS loader header in GameRenderer.cpp:#include
3. Load texture in CreateDeviceResources method:
void GameRenderer::CreateDeviceResources(){Direct3DBase::CreateDeviceResources();spriteBatch = std::shared_ptr(new SpriteBatch(m_d3dContext.Get()));DX::ThrowIfFailed(CreateDDSTextureFromFile(m_d3dDevice.Get(),
L"Assets\\CatTexture.dds", NULL, &m_catTexture, NULL));m_loadingComplete = true;
}

Draw Imagevoid GameRenderer::Render(float timeTotal, float timeDelta){
const float midnightBlue[] = { 0.098f, 0.098f, 0.439f, 1.000f };
m_d3dContext->ClearRenderTargetView(m_renderTargetView.Get(), midnightBlue);m_d3dContext->ClearDepthStencilView(m_depthStencilView.Get(), D3D11_CLEAR_DEPTH,
1.0f, 0);
// Only draw once the resources are loaded (loading is asynchronous).if (!m_loadingComplete){
return;}
m_d3dContext->OMSetRenderTargets(1, m_renderTargetView.GetAddressOf(),m_depthStencilView.Get());
// Fill a rectangleFillRect(0xFF0000, 50, 100, 100, 50);
// Draw an image (x=10, y=10)spriteBatch->Begin();spriteBatch->Draw(m_catTexture, XMFLOAT2(10, 10));spriteBatch->End();

3D Coordinate Systems
Left-handed versus Right-handed
DirectX: usually uses Left-handed coordinate system
OpenGL: usually uses Right-handed coordinate system
-
HLSL (High Level Shader Language) The language used to write shaders for GPUs in DirectX
SimpleVertexShader.hlsl
VertexShaderOutput main(VertexShaderInput input){
VertexShaderOutput output;float4 pos = float4(input.pos, 1.0f);
// Transform the vertex position into projected space.pos = mul(pos, model);pos = mul(pos, view);pos = mul(pos, projection);output.pos = pos;
// Pass through the color without modification.output.color = input.color;
return output;}
SimplePixelShader.hlsl
float4 main(PixelShaderInput input) : SV_TARGET{
return float4(input.color,1.0f);}
-
DirectX Math and HLSLMatrix Vector
OpenGL Column-major Column vectors
GLSL Column-major Column vectors
DirectX Math Row-major Row vectors
HLSL (by default) Column-major Row vectors
Solutions:
Transpose matrices before sending to HLSL
Use the #pragma pack_matrix directive in shaders:
#pragma pack_matrix( row_major )
-
DirectX PrimitivesPoint Lists Line Lists Line Strips
Triangle Lists Triangle Strips
-
Face and Vertex Normal Vectors
Each face in a mesh has a perpendicular unit normal vector
The vector's direction is determined by the order in which the vertices are defined and by whether the coordinate system is right- or left-handed
The face normal points away from the front side of the face
In Direct3D, only the front of a face is visible
A front face is one in which vertices are defined in clockwise order.
-
Use row-major in HLSL so that you dont need to transpose matrices from DirectX Math
1. Add directive in vertex shader:
Direct3D App (Cont.)
#pragma pack_matrix( row_major )
SimpleVertexShader.hlsl
2. Remove all transpose matrices in CubeRenderer.cpp:void CubeRenderer::CreateWindowSizeDependentResources(){
Direct3DBase::CreateWindowSizeDependentResources();
float aspectRatio = m_windowBounds.Width / m_windowBounds.Height;float fovAngleY = 70.0f * XM_PI / 180.0f;if (aspectRatio < 1.0f){
fovAngleY /= aspectRatio;}
XMStoreFloat4x4(&m_constantBufferData.projection,XMMatrixTranspose(XMMatrixPerspectiveFovRH(fovAngleY,
aspectRatio,0.01f,100.0f)));}
void CubeRenderer::Update(float timeTotal, float timeDelta){
(void) timeDelta; // Unused parameter.
XMVECTOR eye = XMVectorSet(0.0f, 0.7f, 1.5f, 0.0f);XMVECTOR at = XMVectorSet(0.0f, -0.1f, 0.0f, 0.0f);XMVECTOR up = XMVectorSet(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
XMStoreFloat4x4(&m_constantBufferData.view,XMMatrixTranspose(XMMatrixLookAtRH(eye, at, up)));
XMStoreFloat4x4(&m_constantBufferData.model,XMMatrixTranspose(XMMatrixRotationY(timeTotal * XM_PIDIV4)));
}
-
Apply orthographic projection for our 2D game framework with Left-handed coordinate system
Direct3D App
void CubeRenderer::CreateWindowSizeDependentResources(){
Direct3DBase::CreateWindowSizeDependentResources();
XMStoreFloat4x4(&m_constantBufferData.projection,XMMatrixOrthographicOffCenterLH(
0, // ViewLeftm_windowBounds.Width, // ViewRightm_windowBounds.Height, // ViewBottom0, // ViewTop-1.0f, // NearZ1.0f // FarZ
);
}
-
Update view matrix with Left-handed coordinate system
Direct3D App
void CubeRenderer::Update(float timeTotal, float timeDelta){
(void) timeDelta; // Unused parameter.
XMVECTOR eye = XMVectorSet(0.0f, 0.0f, -1.0f, 0.0f);XMVECTOR at = XMVectorSet(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);XMVECTOR up = XMVectorSet(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
XMStoreFloat4x4(&m_constantBufferData.view, XMMatrixLookAtLH(eye, at, up));XMStoreFloat4x4(&m_constantBufferData.model, XMMatrixIdentity());

Texturing allows adding photographs and other images onto polygon faces
The format of the textures are Direct Draw Surface (.dds) files
In the texel coordinate system, the width value is named "U" and the height value is named "V: The width goes from 0.0 on the left to 1.0 on the right The height goes from 0.0 on the top to 1.0 on the bottom

-
1. Develop or modify XNA source code with J2ME wrapper classes:
Graphics Image Touch input and media related classes
2. Resize all images to one half and copy to AshaFT project
3. Update all coordinates with scale factor =
4. Replace Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game by Javax.microedition.lcdui.Canvasand java.lang.Runnable
5. Remove all wrapper classes, go with the ones in MIDP such as javax.microedition.lcdui.Graphics
6. Optimize memory and performance

mcpp preprocessorhttp://mcpp.sourceforge.net/
Implements all of C90, C99 and C++98 specifications. Provides a validation suite to test C/C++ preprocessor's conformance and
quality comprehensively. When this validation suite is applied, mcppdistinguishes itself among many existing preprocessors.
Has plentiful and on-target diagnostics to check all the preprocessing problems such as latent bug or lack of portability in source code.
Has #pragma directives to output debugging information. Is portable and has been ported to many compiler-systems, including GCC
and Visual C++, on UNIX-like systems and Windows.
Has various behavior modes. Can be built either as a compiler-specific preprocessor to replace the
resident preprocessor of a particular compiler system, or as a compiler-independent command, or even as a subroutine called from some other main program.
Provides comprehensive documents both in Japanese and in English. Is an open source software released under BSD-style-license.
