1.4RC2 won't compile on GCC3.3 or GCC4.0.1 under Fedora Core 4

by Mike Stoddart · in Torque Game Engine · 09/09/2005 (4:24 pm) · 47 replies

I'm trying to compile 1.4RC2 on Fedora Core 4 with either GCC 3.3 or GCC 4.0.1.

I always get:

I've tried using:

GCC 4.0.1 --> GCC3.4+ (conf.GCC3.4+.LINUX.mk)

GCC 3.3 --> GCC3 (conf.GCC3.LINUX.mk)

Anyone succeeded with this?

Thanks

(I'm assuming RC2 is available through HEAD).

@Benoit
Yes I got the tools to build.

1. engine/targets.torque.mk
Find this:
----
ifeq "$(OS)" "WIN32"
SOURCE.ENGINE += $(SOURCE.PLATFORM$(OS))
else
SOURCE.ENGINE += $(SOURCE.PLATFORM$(OS)DEDICATED)
endif
----
Change to:
----
SOURCE.ENGINE += $(SOURCE.PLATFORM$(OS))
----
Change the $(SOURCE.GAME.I18N) to $(SOURCE.I18N)
Should be a line or two above the previous change.

2. tools/targets.map2dif.mk
map2dif$(EXT.EXE): CFLAGS

Add -I../engine/dgl to the CFLAGS

(Should read)
map2dif$(EXT.EXE): CFLAGS += -I../engine -I../engine/dgl -I../lib/zlib -I../lib/lungif -I../lib/lpng -I../lib/ljpeg -I- -I../lib/openal/$(OS)

3. Grab:
slyvester.gxsnmp.org/torque/patches/targets.langc.mk
and
slyvester.gxsnmp.org/torque/patches/targets.map2difplus.mk

And plop em in the tools directory.

4. GNU Make has a problem with file names with spaces so.
ln -s map2dif\ plus map2dif_plus

5. Edit tools/Makefile
Find the all: target (around line 23)

Make it read as such:
all: max2mapExporter map2dif map2difplus buildWad langc

Around line 36 you'll see include targets.buildWad.mk
Add
include targets.map2difplus.mk
include targets.langc.mk

6. cross your fingers and type make

If you did the dance right,
----
--> Linking map2dif_DEBUG.bin
--> Linking map2difplus_DEBUG.bin
--> Linking buildWad_DEBUG.bin
--> Linking langc_DEBUG.bin
----

I know nothing about the use of said tools, but this will build em, I think map2dif will be disappearing in the future superceeded by the map2dif plus thing.

buildWad seems to be really ancient.

I don't own max or maya so I have no way to test or even build those bits or if they even build under linux and I don't have truck loads of $$$ laying around to experiment on em either ;)

I finally found the main culprit for all my problems. In mk/conf.UNIX.mk the first line reads O=.obj and i had that change to O=.o for some reason it was killing off make preventing it from setting/using the cflags/link flags/etc.

Gregory i have finally got it all work thanks. I have made a new patch with all your changes and added some makefile magic to handle creating 32bit binaries on the AMD64/EMT64 platform. Can i mail you the file so you can host it, i don't current have a site setup?

Edit: Btw i added some magic to fix it so it automatically creates the symlinking in the patch.

You don't. This is way old information. Just download 1.4.2, it'll work fine in linux.
