Where are my .DSO's?

by Andrew Edmonds · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 03/19/2007 (5:54 am) · 3 replies

Hi all,

Am I being completely stupid here? I don't seem to be getting any DSO files when running the engine (or pre-compiling in Torsion). I'm running a Release build of TGEA v1.0...

    If I remember right off-head it's disabled in the current TGEA version. But you can enable it again. Look in the file engine/core/torqueConfig.h. There's a line like this:

    define TORQUE_NO_DSO_GENERATION

    You can enable DSO generation by putting a # in front of it. Did that help?

    Thanks Martin. That served as a swift reminder for me to search the source code as well as the forums for answers as it's all right there in plain English:

    /// Define to disable DSO file generation.  Note that existing DSOs will still be 
// used by the engine.  Script files will load a bit more slowly because they need
// to be compiled each time.
//#define TORQUE_NO_DSO_GENERATION

    Thanks again!
