}

Solution

Due to new version architecture, replace the following line:


  consoleInitDefault((u16*)SCREEN_BASE_BLOCK_SUB(31), (u16*)CHAR_BASE_BLOCK_SUB(0), 16);

Replace it with this line:


  consoleInit(0,1, BgType_Text4bpp, BgSize_T_256x256, 0, 6, false, true);

Now an undefined reference to 'consoleInit' link error occurs.

How the solution was found

Searching all Libnds files, no function called 'consoleInitDefault' could be found. In '/opt/devkitpro/libnds-1.4.7/include/nds/arm9/console.h' the function called 'consoleInit' was found. Replacing 'consoleInitDefault' by 'consoleInit' resulted in the followinng error:


error: cannot convert 'u16*' to 'PrintConsole*' for argument '1' to 'PrintConsole* consoleInit(PrintConsole*, int, BgType, BgSize, int, int, bool, bool)'

So, after checking for consoleInit's function declaration, I see that I have to pass NULL as a first argument for a default consoleInit:


  consoleInit(0,(u16*)SCREEN_BASE_BLOCK_SUB(31), (u16*)CHAR_BASE_BLOCK_SUB(0), 16);

Still no good, so search the web for an example use:


  consoleInit(0,1, BgType_Text4bpp, BgSize_T_256x256, 0, 6, false, true);

Fixed, although now an undefined reference to 'consoleInit' link error occurs.

(C++) 'consoleInitDefault' was not declared in this scope
