OpenVR SDK

openvr's Issues

Consider adding OpenVR libs as a git submodule?

Very minor but might take the hassle out of pushing the new binaries each time they're updated by Valve/OpenVR.

Failing tests - Unable to read VR Path Registry from ~/.config/openvr/openvrpaths.vrpath

Hi Giuseppe,

I'm having an issue building your code on Ubuntu using gradle. Both unit tests are failing when trying to initialise the vr api. Please note I don't have steam or any openvr api runtime currently installed on my system.

Based on TesteEventLogger output it seems that a pre-requisite to executing the tests on this project is to install openvr api runtime. Would it be better if the tests were configured to use either a generic or platform-specific openvrpaths.vrpath file?

[ERROR] [system.err] Unable to read VR Path Registry from /home/steve/.config/openvr/openvrpaths.vrpath
11:30:16.284

[ERROR] [system.err] Unable to read VR Path Registry from /home/steve/.config/openvr/openvrpaths.vrpath

How did you get around this issue in your Travis build? I checked your travis build and can't see any line suggesting a step requiring openvr be installed prior to running the build.

Cheers,

Steve

CreateOverlay causes EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION

Hello, Giuseppe

Quite a long time I have been struggling with mentioned error.
I'm running Windows 10 x64, HTC Vive, nvidia 1070 and amd fx-8320.

Following code:

import openvr.lib.*
import java.nio.LongBuffer

fun main() {
    println("java ${System.getProperty("java.version")} ${System.getProperty("sun.arch.data.model")}bit")
    println(vr.isHmdPresent)
    println(vr.isRuntimeInstalled)
    println(vr.runtimePath)

    val ivr = vr.init(VRApplication.Overlay)
    println("ivr error code: $ivr")

    println("vrOverlay.isInterfaceVersionValid = ${vrOverlay.isInterfaceVersionValid}")

    val testOverlayHandle = VROverlayHandleBuffer.allocate(1).also {
        println(it.limit())
        vrOverlay.createOverlay("test:overlay", "test overlay", it) // <- access violation
//        vrOverlay.createDashboardOverlay("test:overlay", "test dashboard overlay", it, LongBuffer.allocate(1)) // <- no exception produced here
    }.get(0)

    vrOverlay.setOverlayFromFile(testOverlayHandle, "duck.png")
    vrOverlay showOverlay testOverlayHandle

    Thread.sleep(2000)

    vrOverlay hideOverlay testOverlayHandle
    vrOverlay destroyOverlay testOverlayHandle

    vr.shutdown()
}

Produces output:

Have tried also under Java 11 x64 both 1.2.10 release and cbc252e with about the same result (but pc like 0x7ffc########).
Seems magical to me that createDashboardOverlay doesn't cause any errors.

Attaching Visual Studio to native code shown access violation with pc=0x00000000, can it be a null pointer?
PDB file for vrclient.dll isn't available hence I don't see any further options for native debug.
hs_err_pid15344.mdmp and hs_err_pid15344.log

SteamVR is 1.6.10, though I expect it to be backward-compatible, declarations of CreateOverlay are similar in openvr.h of 1.2.10 and of 1.6.10. I'd like to try older versions of SteamVR, but I don't see an obvious way of safe downgrade.

P.S. helloVr_OpenGL works as a charm with my setup and SteamVR 1.6.10.
