Welcome!

WARNING - BETA RELEASE

The NDK is currently in beta - things may change without warning, and your code may break.
Stay tuned for updates, but until then, Beware Dragons.

The Tilt Five™ native development kit (NDK) enables development of content for the Tilt Five™ platform.

Ensure you're using the latest development tools by visiting https://www.tiltfive.com/developers.

Prerequisites

Latest driver package installed
Available USB3 port
Tilt Five™ glasses
At least C11 or C++11 project

Getting Started

Samples

Dynamic Linking

The samples directory in the NDK download contains three trivial clients exercising a range of functions of the NDK. The two files sample.c and sample.cpp use the C and C++ interface respectively. They have been tested with GCC 11.2.0, clang 13.0.0-2, and MSVC 19.30.30705, built as follows:

gcc -std=c11 sample.c -I .. ../lib/linux/x86_64/libTiltFiveNative.so
g++ -std=c++11 sample.cpp -I .. ../lib/linux/x86_64/libTiltFiveNative.so -latomic
clang -std=c11 sample.c -I .. ../lib/linux/x86_64/libTiltFiveNative.so
clang++ -std=c++11 sample.cpp -I .. ../lib/linux/x86_64/libTiltFiveNative.so -latomic
cl /std:c11 sample.c /MD /I .. ..\lib\win\x86_64\TiltFiveNative.dll.if.lib
cl /std:c++14 sample.cpp /MD /EHsc /I .. ..\lib\win\x86_64\TiltFiveNative.dll.if.lib

A Note on Compatibility

We aim to provide backward compatibility between NDK versions and driver versions, but we do not provide forward compatibility. In practice, this means:

Software built using an older NDK version will work with the same driver version or newer.
Software built using a newer NDK version will fail to work with older driver versions.

The T5_ERROR_SERVICE_INCOMPATIBLE (C) and tiltfive::Error::kServiceIncompatible (C++) errors indicate the latter condition if returned from the system-wide functions. Ensure that you check these return values because the NDK functions will not work with an incompatible driver package.
