example circle.jl is not working

[arhik]

API changed since circle.jl example was added. It needs to be updated with new api.

@arhik I can try fixing it if you can give some hints to where to start

@VarLad Circle.jl is mostly api changes related fix. Its not trivial. I will guide you as much as I can here. Thanks for showing interest. Allow me sometime (a couple of days) to comeback to this.

@VarLad I went through code and its failing because of API changes made. API needed changes for supporting mesh primitive, lighting and shadow support. Basically we needed to get renderpipelineOptions and bindings and bindingLayouts generated for different light, texture and shadow settings optionally and be able to modify them dynamically if possible. To note differences in API changes please take a look at mesh primitive. Hope this helps.

@arhik (apologies for the delayed reply, I've recently begun my Masters program and was in the shifting process)
Whats the status on this?

[arhik]

@VarLad No worries. API changes are more of less stable. You can make changes looking other recent examples. Use Mac or Windows. Linux has issues with GLFW library right now. I tried all version combinations; no luck.

2D circle version is here. https://github.com/JuliaWGPU/WGPUgfx.jl/blob/main/src/ui/circle.jl. This should be good template for 3D circle (Still a 2D circle but with 3D transformations).
