Trouble Compiling
by Dustin Williams · in Torque Game Engine · 01/22/2005 (1:23 pm) · 6 replies
I am attempting to compile the TGE SDK in linux by going to the freshly installed Torque directory and doing a make. I had a couple problems before, and I fixed them, but now I'm getting tons of errors with x86UNIXState.h. Here are the errors:
And so on... There's still more than twice that much left, but all except the last two (which are for x86UNIXFileio.cc) have to do with x86UNIXState.h.
How can I fix this?

Turns out I don't have xlib-dev. Kind of important when compiling stuff that interfaces with X. :) Thanks a lot.

OK, I can compile a clean install of the Torque SDK on Linux without problems, but now I want to compile my modified source in Linux. One of the things I added in Windows to the SDK was the Turrets resource. Here are the make errors:Quote:

Here is the first real error:
game/turrets/aiTurret.cc:623: error: no matching function for call to
'AITurret::getAnglesFromAimLocation(Point3F&, Point3F, F32&, F32&)'
...candidates are:
void AITurret::getAnglesFromAimLocation(VectorF&, VectorF&, F32&, F32&)
So you are trying to call a method that takes VectorF arguments, but you are supplying it with Point3F arguments instead. I'm going to assume for the moment that the compiler is right about this and you are using the wrong type of arguments to call this method. Do you have some evidence to convince me otherwise? Important pieces of information here would be:
1) first line of getAnglesFromAimLocation, which shows what arguments it expects.
2) the line where you tried and failed to call this method.
3) the variable declarations of any variables that you used as arguments.
On a side note, do you have a link to the turret resource that you're trying to use?

Ignore the warning about newlines. Your linux compiler doesn't like files that were created/edited in windows, but it will get over this :pHere is the first real error:

Turns out that things are exactly the way you say. However, it appears that MS Visual Studio doesn't care and GCC2 does. I don't actually need any of the ai turret code in my game so I just commented out that line and it compiled fine. Thanks a lot for your help!

VectorF is actually just a simple typedef of Point3F which is probably why Windows doesn't care.

X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory
This file (Xlib.h) is not in my copy of Torque. Neither is the directory. I am assuming then, that Torque is expecting to find this file already on your machine. Go find it yourself. Write down where it is. Now open x86UNIXState.h and look for the appropriate include statement (find: xlib.h). Is it looking in the right place? I'm guessing no. Tell it a more appropriate place to look and your problem should disappear.
Oh, and take my advice with a grain of salt. I'm a Windows user. :)
