Question

I'm researching the possibility of using cocos2d-js by embedding it as a view inside an existing iOS app. In order to make this work, I'm going to need 2-way communication between cocos2d and the surrounding application.

After some initial investigation, I have determined that it is possible to call in to cocos using ScriptingCore:

ScriptingCore* sc = ScriptingCore::getInstance();
jsval outVal;
sc->evalString("function()", &outVal);

My question, then, is around doing the reverse. It is possible to (e.g. in response to user input) call back out of cocos2d-js to C++? Ideally, there would be a way to register a callback with ScriptingCore which could be invoked from JavaScript.

Was it helpful?

Solution

I believe it can be done, but I have not tried myself, nor can I find a good and concise example. All I can do is point you at SuperSuraccoon's Bluetooth example and it's git page, which apparently does both ways communication between C++ and JS code.
