unmount_sd_fat("sd");

Link the application with:

-lgui -lutils -ldynamiclibs -lfreetype -lgd -lpng -ljpeg -lz -lmad -lvorbisidec -logg -lbz2

You also need to add the include path to your Makefile. Example:

exportINCLUDE	:= [...] -I$(PORTLIBS)/include/freetype2 \
-I$(PORTLIBS)/include/libgui \
-I$(PORTLIBS)/include

Dependencies

To be able to use libgui, you need to install the following dependencies:

• Application needs to be loaded from the homebrew_launcher

• libutils for common functions.

• dynamic_libs for access to the functions.

• Install the required portlibs via (dkp-)pacman -Syu ppc-zlib ppc-libmad ppc-libogg ppc-libgd ppc-freetype ppc-libjpeg-turbo ppc-libpng ppc-libvorbisidec ppc-glm ppc-bzip2

Use the prebuilt files from a Docker image.

The image wiiulegacy/libgui on Docker Hub provides a prebuilt library in the /artifacts directory. Copy it into your DevkitPPC portlibs folder.

Example:
