Looking for the reference tutorials for the joints in the Box2D for iphone

Question

I can't find the tutorials of joints class in the Box2D for iPhone. I am unable to run a Testbed for iPhone Box2D.

(void)ccTouchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event { if (_mouseJoint!=NULL)return; UITouch *mytouch=[touches anyObject]; CGPoint location=[mytouch locationInView:[mytouch view]]; location=[[CCDirector sharedDirector]convertToGL:location]; b2Vec2 locationWorld=b2Vec2(location.x/PTM_RATIO,location.y/PTM_RATIO); //ristrict the player within the ground limit keep stucking the player with grounditself..... if (_playerFixture->TestPoint(locationWorld)) { b2MouseJointDef md; md.bodyA=groundBody; md.bodyB=_playerBody; md.target=locationWorld; md.collideConnected=true; md.maxForce=100.0f*_playerBody->GetMass(); _mouseJoint=(b2MouseJoint *)_world->CreateJoint(&md); _playerBody->SetAwake(true); } } -(void)ccTouchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event { if (_mouseJoint == NULL) return; UITouch *myTouch = [touches anyObject]; CGPoint location = [myTouch locationInView:[myTouch view]]; location = [[CCDirector sharedDirector] convertToGL:location]; if (location.y<240.00&&location.y>=20.0f) { b2Vec2 locationWorld = b2Vec2(location.x/PTM_RATIO, location.y/PTM_RATIO); _mouseJoint->SetTarget(locationWorld); } } - (void)ccTouchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event { if (_mouseJoint) { _world->DestroyJoint(_mouseJoint); _mouseJoint = NULL; } }

Freezing Fire, it would help if you'd say what in particular isn't clear about the Box2D manual (which has a huge section on joints), or why Emanuele's tutorials aren't good for you. — user744

@joe Wreschnig: I Have updated my question ==> here problem is that ==>with use of mouse joint i move the object through the screen and due to the mouse joint object don't getting rigid to the place where my hand is moving and also i am not getting any setter method for ==> b2Vec2 GetReactionForce(float32 inv_dt) const; as i think this is the responsible method for the ball having more elasticity prooperty — NIKHIL

Emanuele Feronato has some great joint tutorials for box2d. The tutorials are in Actionscript 3, but the basic principles are the same.

BTW, the as3 port of box2d sticks pretty closely to the naming convention of the original c++ box2d, so you'll just have to change syntax a bit to use it on the iPhone.

I've read those, and I think they're far more confusing and shallow than the proper Box2D manual. — user744
