Compile troubles
« on: August 30, 2005, 04:34:09 am »

Hi, been trying to compile the game But having troubles.  everytime I get this error when I type the command:

$ ./build.sh uqm config
'echo -n' capable echo found.
Sed stream editor found.
 tr found.
Make found.
GNU C compiler found.
windres found.
Little-endian machine detected.
build/unix/build.sh: sdl-config: command not found
build/unix/build.sh: sdl-config: command not found
build/unix/build.sh: sdl-config: command not found
Fatal: Could not determine version of Simple DirectMedia Layer

Man I feel stupid cause I don't know whats wrong. I probably forgot to add something or messed something up somehow.  Huh

You need the SDL library. And if you don't have that, then you probably haven't got some of the other required libraries. Look in the file called INSTALL, where they're all listed.

SO what do I do with the library? Your refering to SDL 1.2 right? Cause I had that installed but didn't know what to do with it.

If you're compiling under MinGW, there are detailed instructions in INSTALL.mingw in the UQM source distribution. Also, see this thread.

Also note that you need the development files for SDL. Not just the runtime files.

Lets see what I got from install.mingw,
http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-devel-1.2.8-mingw32.tar.gz : Downloaded, opened it and put in it's own folder.
http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image/release/SDL_image-devel-1.2.4-VC6.zip : Downloaded, unzipped.
http://ftp://opensource.creative.com/pub/sdk/OpenALSDK.exe : Downloaded installed.
http://www.vorbis.com/files/1.0/windows/OggVorbis-win32sdk-1.0.zip : Downloaded, unzipped.
http://www.gzip.org/zlib/zlib122-dll.zip : Downloaded, unzipped.
http://sc2.sourceforge.net/misc/_G_config.h : Downloaded.

I've copied all DLL's to \[MinGW]\lib and all header files to \[MinGW]\include. Copied the Ogg and Vorbis folders to the include directory.

Also note that you need the development files for SDL. Not just the runtime files.

? Dunno what you mean by that. I have SDL 1.2 and SDL development 1.2.8 for mingw32.

Based on your description, you haven't installed SDL properly. Follow the installation instructions in the SDL package. The error message you're getting is because the SDL configuration detection script (sdl-config) hasn't been installed properly.

The runtime files are the ones UQM needs to run. The development files are the ones that UQM needs to compile. But you've got the right package. What you need to do is put the dir that contains sdl-config in your search path.
