Getting Started Problem - First Time Compile

by Paul Thomas · in Torque Game Engine · 08/20/2005 (5:25 am) · 7 replies

Setting up to compile Torque for the first time.
Using eclipse 3.0.2, msys 1.0.9, MinGW gcc 3.2.3

H:\Torque>make -f mk\configure.mk OS=WIN32 COMPILER=GCC3.4+ BUILD=RELEASE

Current Configuration: this config is VALID
OS: WIN32
COMPILER: GCC3.4+
BUILD: RELEASE
DIR.OBJ: out

...works fine, but when I try and compile...

Anyone have a clue about these hieroglyphics?

This is supposed to be a "Compile Torque out-of-the-box" exercise,
so hopefully the root of the problem is singular in nature.

What command is "not found"?
Do I need to set some environment variables?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Additional info:

Compile errors in the original post specified GCC3.4+

If I change this to GCC3.4, then the following errors are generated:

I bet it's the plus messing up the commands it's generating.

Are you choosing a valid option from the list of supported compilers?

I noticed you installed to the H: drive. Did you install the TBE out-of-the-box solution? This assumes you always install to C:\torque\sdk for which TBE attempts to write some make files which fix up Eclipse to work correctly.

Try my tute and see if it works for you - don't reinstall TBE obviously you would mainly be concerned with the .mk files attached.

In fact try a test install using my tut as is, then when that works - reverse engineer your install of GCC3.4 fixing up files that are different from GCC3 (use win merge or something)

Grab the tut and files here...it shows you how to install Torque and Eclipse anywhere.

Tute works great, thank you Andy.
Much appreciated!

Now the fun really begins...

The "Rebuild Project" process reached the 49% mark, with a variety of warnings along the way, then....

make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'out.GCC3.RELEASE/gui/guiConsoleEditCtrl.obj', needed by 'out.GCC3.RELEASE/torqueDemo.exe'.

... and 30 more just like it for building torqueDemo.exe

Is there something special required to build the GUI?
Something I failed to do?

...the compile came to a halt.

For some reason, "sim/frameAllocator.h" is missing.
Did I delete this file by mistake? If so, do I restore it by running WinCsv again?

Thanks.
Any help is most appreciated.

Does this happen when you have installed Torque to the H: Drive? I'm think the make target (target.texture2bm8.mk) might be having difficulty finding frameAllocator.h but looking into the texture2bm8 make file doesn't really show why.

However this is all irrelevant. If sim/frameAllocator.h is missing (use Windows Explorer to double check) then you need to put it back with a fresh install.

Did you try installing Torque to the default C:\Torque\SDK folder then install TBE after that? Maybe try that to troubleshoot this problem. If the default install doesn't fail as you have mentioned above then your custom install might be to blame.

Run WinMerge on the default install of Torque and on the custom install of Torque to see what's different.

I'm having similar problems as the original poster. Using both msys/mingw and cygwin with mingw. This is when I try to compile HEAD
The outpout of my

make -f mk/configure.mk

Quote:
Current Configuration: this config is VALID
OS: WIN32
COMPILER: GCC3.4+
BUILD: DEBUG
DIR.OBJ: out

Note: if you are using GCC 3.4 or later, your compiler configuration
should be set to GCC3.4+

To change the current configuration type:

make -f mk/configure.mk {arguments, ...}

required arguments:
OS={WIN32 BEOS LINUX OpenBSD FreeBSD Solaris}
COMPILER={CW6 VC6 GCC2 GCC3 GCC3.4+}
BUILD={DEBUG RELEASE}

optional arguments:
DIR.OBJ={path to store intermediate obj files}

Note: all arguments are case sensitive.

However, setting COMPILER=GCC3 will remove these errors, but the compile will fail on the common GCC3.4 errors, in resManager.h

Actually, I solved my problem simply by downgrading to gcc3.3. I've learned (for the final time, I hope) not to hope to use gcc3.4 with Torque.
