FenneX goal is to allow faster development of cocos2d-x apps, by exposing native OS features as easy to use C++ API and by adding support classes for a specific workflow.

It currently uses the obsolete version 2.2 of cocos2d-x, and is going to undergo a lot of changes to make the interface easier to use and the code cleaner. The current version was originally not planned to be open-sourced. The goal of open-sourcing it is to provide samples for people trying to use native OS features.

• Analytics : support a dual delivery to Google Analytics and Flurry (based on Di Wu's AnalyticX project), with very limited features
• Audio Player / Recorder : similar to SimpleAudioEngine, except it supports recording
• Audio Picker : pick a sound from the user library
• Video Player : again, limited features. Supports VLC on Android, which means you can change playback rate
• Video Picker : pick a video from the user library, or directly record it
• Local Notification : standard local notifications (note : on Android, it doesn't handle the use case when an app is shut down)
• Mail / URL : send a mail (via the user's mail app) or open an URL (via browser)
• Image Picker : pick an image either from library or from camera (using Intent on Android, not in the app)
• In App : support for iTunes and Google Play Billing
• Text To Speech : currently only available on Android
• Miscellaneous : everything that didn't fit the previous one: get/set luminosity, volume, use vibrations, get local language, app name, is a phone

To build, you need to take example on the sample project (not yet available, will be posted after V3 release).

Building tested on Mac OS X 10.8 and 10.9 with Xcode 5.1 and NDK r9 and r9d Runtime iOS 5.0+ and Android 2.3.3+

• update to cocos2d-x V3.2
• provide a sample project
• refactor the API
• switch to a library
• reduce duplicates with cocos2d-x
• develop a test project

FenneX is a "scratch your own itch" framework, and as such may not be useful to lots of persons. The basis dates back from before cocos2d-iphone V1, and as such a lot of methods have become redundant with current cocos2d-x implementation.

FenneX includes a full customized version of cocos2d-x, because it requires additionnal methods not present in standard cocos2d-x. The full list of modification by file can be found in cocos2d-xmodifications.txt

You are welcomed to try to build on other platforms and report the result and what's needed.

Other deploy platforms are not planned anytime soon, as it requires a lot of effort to port all the native wrappers

If you notice a bug, please open an issue If you fixed a bug or added a feature, send a pull request, explaining what you fixed/added. All code must follow the same coding style as the rest of FenneX
