init method parameters and LAYER_NODE_FUNC

cocos2d-x C++
#1

I want to have a layer with an init method like so:

bool GameOverLayer::init(int score, CCString* levelName)

But this breaks the line LAYER_NODE_FUNC(GameOverLayer); in the header. How can I do this with cocos2d-x?

you can replace “LAYER_NODE_FUNC(GameOverLayer);” with:

static GameOverLayer* create(int score, CCString* levelName);
bool init(int score, CCString* levelName);

and in your .cpp file do something like this:

GameOverLayer* GameOverLayer::create(int score, CCString* levelName)
{
    GameOverLayer *pGOL = new GameOverLayer();
    if (pGOL && pGOL->init(score, levelName)) {
        pGOL->autorelease();
        return pGOL;
    }
    CC_SAFE_DELETE(pGOL);
    return NULL;
}

bool GameOverLayer::init(score, levelName)
{
    bool ret = false;   
    if ((ret = CCLayer::init()))
    {

    }

    return ret;
}

s. i suppose you use cocos2d-x 2.0.1

Thanks, that worked perfectly
