See this page

I have no experience using mingw so I cannot really help out much here.  I may be able to find somebody that does if you do have any specific problems though.

Thanks, trying to compile now.

EDIT: why are you moving away from make?

Just tell me if you succeed, will you?
About make: if we began to write about advantages, disadvantages, why drop make, etc. then this thread would get 100 posts long at least...
It had a VERY long discussion on the Crystal Space mailing list. So the reason is: just because

it seems to work, trying to get python working now, since cel needs that.

PS: if i meet the person who made CS use jam instead of make, i will personally rape him/her

[Rulzern]

Well, that went down the drain, just about nothing works, I think i can almost compile CS, with only a few errors, cel gives me loads of errors, and PS doesn\'t compile at all.

HAHA! Well, that was one of the key-devs of CS
I don\'t think he would enjoy that

Hmmm...
All right. I think I will give it a try too.

I am ALMOST ready. I have compiled CS minimal, CEL (I had to tweak a bit with jam files) PS is NEARLY ready, but there is a place, where I cannot continue. PS gave a few errors (even wrong, includes!!! - for example: psnet/pserror.h was included, but it is in util/pserror.h) but I could solve them.

Although, the file: src/common/engine/scfreg.inc gives the following error:
src/common/engine/scfreg.inc:28: no matching function for call to `iSCF::
   RegisterClassA(const char[30], const char[8])\'
....
And a thousand like this. But the problem is that, that function DOES exist ?(

Although pssetup.exe linked - I could run it among with ase_2_spr.exe and texparse.exe, but the main.c (witch includes scfreg.inc) does not compile because of the above error.

Acraig, you are the guru here, do you have an explanation?
Thanks in advance.

As I guess I would say that you are running under Windows and one of the standard windows includes has this define somewhere:

#define RegisterClass  RegisterClassA

Which is why it is screwing up and trying to replace SCF::RegisterClass with SCF::RegisterClassA.   What you can do is try an #undef.  I seem to remember this happening sometime before so you can check the Crystal Space mailing lists to see if there is another solution as well.

[elminster]

Thanks, the #undef fixed it. But now I have this, and it seems this is the last error:
src/server/psserverbehave.cpp:72: no matching function for call to `MsgHandler
   ::SendMessage(MsgEntry*& )\'

I have #undefed SendMessage, because it replaced it with SendMessageA, but now it still doesn\'t want to work

But MsgHandler::SendMessage(MsgEntry *msg) DOES exist ?(

Please help. This is the last error.

sorry, been a bit busy the last day, installing linux and whatnot.

I\'ll try now, i wonder if it\'ll compile with gcc 3.3.

[Rulzern]

doesn\'t seem to work, gonna try a few more times

anybody had any success compiling it on Debian SID?

[elminster]

I have a Debian Linux too!

I was logged in yesterday, and I have been hacking ALL DAY, trying to get ALSA work, as it couldn\'t detect my SBAWE card - it uses sb16 driver.

The last time I was on before yesterday, was on 2002 October 6!!! - well that was SOME time ago

Maybe I\'ll try compiling under Linux...

Just a benchmark: configure script speed under Windows (MSYS) and Linux:
Windows: 3 mins
Linux: 15 seconds

Hehe, yeah.

On getting ALSA to work: check if there are any modules for your current kernel (if using a stock kernel), installing is a breeze if there is (apt-get install alsa-modules-kernel, then modprobe what you need)

But there should be support for SB AWE 64 in OSS, though you might not get as fancy features. Do a search for \"sound install script\" or something.

Still no luck on getting it compiled.
