1.5.1 clean compile problem

by Ashley Leach · in Torque Game Engine · 04/11/2007 (3:03 pm) · 3 replies

Hi All,

when i compile the engine, i get an error
lpng.lib not found.

but when i go to compile it individually, it is listed as "up to date"
when i clean and compile it, it says "up to date" as well without compiling.
No .lib file is created for it(i did a find in folders)

to put it in perspective, i did the same things with ljpeg.lib
and a clean compile, comes up with a compile list of files, and then a lib is created


This is with a clean 1.5.1

Any help appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Ashley Leach

I guess i should add, that it does this for all torque engines i d/l, 1.5 1.5.1 afx(1.5)

I reinstalled my IDE (vs2005 not express) but to no avail.

This problem has me really baffled.

Any help appreciated.

Also zlib is having the same issue.

they just dont build anything or create any object files when they compile. they always list as uptodate
even when cleaned then built.

Remarkably this works with the same IDE on my laptop. so its obviously on my end.

anyone have any ideas why a computer specific issue, would stop 2 library's being built but build the others.

HDD space isnt the issue.


any help appreciated, but i feel a format coming on :)
