Im requesting a working method of building unitsync under windows that doesnt require VS2005 C++ express and a platform sdk download, OR me tearing my hair out in frustration seething with anger at codeblocks because I dont know how to get rid of the errors and which libraries and files to include.

I need a f*ckign 64bit unitsync.dll to continue AFLobby work and nobody who can compile it is doing so, and the whole thing is just borked. There arent even instructions on what is needed for unitsync.

Use:

Code: Select all

scons configure
scons unitsync

unitsync.dll is then compiled into game/unitsync.dll

More verbose instructions are in the sticky thread on how to compile spring (follow the instructions using MinGW).

As far as I am aware scons doesnt not work under windows.

edit:: pfft devc++ crap

Tobi · Post by **Tobi** » 27 Aug 2007, 15:56

it does work under windows

Yeah, there is a windows version:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/scon ... .win32.exe

imbaczek · Post by **imbaczek** » 27 Aug 2007, 16:00

works for me. Use msys for best effects.

AF · Post by AF » 27 Aug 2007, 16:21

Code: Select all

D:\spring_0.75b2>scons configure
scons: Reading SConscript files ...

Now configuring.  If something fails, consult `config.log' for details.

I have everything needed. I dont have devc++ but I do have mingw32 installed at D:\MinGW\

there's also no config.log

Make sure gcc is in a directory which is in your PATH environment variable.

Does

Code: Select all

gcc --version

on the commandline work?

That's an already fixed bug, maybe grabbing the latest config.py from SVN works fine as a drop in replacement, otherwise just comment out the call to check_zip_version in the configure function in that file or update to latest sourcecode.

imbaczek · Post by **imbaczek** » 27 Aug 2007, 17:06

AF: get msys from mingw site and run scons from there.

tip: msys doesn't explicitly show drives, if you want to get to a directory outside of msys tree, you can cd /c/dir, e.g. cd /c/Documents and Settings/AF/[...]

AF · Post by AF » 28 Aug 2007, 05:51

Ill try that tobi.

imbaczek, I just tried MSys and the post install gave an error, runnign myss gives me 128 terminal windows that promptly start closing them once they're all loaded

tobis fix worked but threw up another issue:

Also D:\MinGW\include\java is not the java include path. There is no jni.h in there, rather a lot of java packages implemented in C/C++ for gcj. On my machine the correct location is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_02\include

That's why it uses mingwlibs\include\java and not D:\MinGW\include\java

Don't know why it fails building streflop at that point though, never seen that before. Some things to check for:

Is make in your PATH?
Is it the mingw32 make that is first in your path, not some other make program? (try make --version on commandline)

Try newer gcc and newer binutils: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... up_id=2435

3.4.2 is pretty old.

AF · Post by AF » 28 Aug 2007, 09:27

same result

imbaczek · Post by **imbaczek** » 28 Aug 2007, 09:38

doh. I'm out of ideas. Maybe it's Vista, but I have no way of checking. If you have a XP box somewhere, you might want to try there. You could also try upgrading win32api and mingw-runtime (not that I expect that to help...)

AF · Post by AF » 28 Aug 2007, 09:41

my recent upgrade has caused the compilr to give errors when compilign NTai with my exception handling macros turned on. It compiles fine with them turned off.
