tried to build tutorial 10

deamonboyx1

and i got no binary to execute but the build had no errors....

i feel im missing something basic here

hmm its compiling it with the c compiler and the c++ compiler and making a duplicate resource and thats causing it to stall but no errors

deamonboyx1

this is what im getting in eclipse and ive double checked it uses
gcc 4.5.2
i have the includes right
i have the libs set in the right place

this is wht it spews and yes i named it fxth after 5 tries thinking i had it loaded wrong

Hi,

Everytime you see missing symbols beginning with _imp_, it means you have a static/dynamic library mismatch.
In this case it's likely that you have built a static version of the orx library while the tutorial expects a dynamic one.
Two way to fix this:
- either build the dynamic version (likely to be dynamic embedded release) and copy the include files, the link library (liborx.a) and the runtime library (orx.dll) from code/lib/dynamic
- or with the static library (liborx.a) that you get from code/lib/static when building the static embedded release version, you need to add a preprocessor define to your project: __orxSTATIC__, but in this case you don't need the runtime library (orx.dll).

Let me know if this fixed your problem.

PS: there should be more or less explanations on all this in the README file.

deamonboyx1

I have been trying to setup eclipse and i added
c:orxinclude
to my include lines and
c:orxlib
to the library includes

this is the same way i set up when i was working with sdl directly so thats what i expected to make this work


and yes it fixed the gint spew of errors but now its being.... dificult

cannot find liborx.a.....

ive directly added it as a single resource too and ohh yes it is indeed there

iarwain

It's a good setup except orx's library actually lies in c:orxlibdynamic.
Liborx.a should be there. I haven't used eclipse/cdt in years so I don't remember all the setup stages for it.
Basically you need the link library accessible somewhere, the runtime library in the same folder as your executable.
For the debug build you also need to specify the preprocessor define __orxDEBUG__.

deamonboyx1

yeah im downloading the svn now see if i have better luck i was just using the downloads off sourceforge

iarwain

Oh I thought you already synced the svn.
Well, once you've synced it, you need to compile the mingw version using codelite. The project file is in orx/code/build.

deamonboyx1

to be honest i dont like codelite lol thats why i tried to get eclipse running but if i have to i will use codelite

iarwain

You only need it to build orx, so it should only take 30s, after that you can use whichever editor/tool for your own project.

deamonboyx1

..... ok im doing something wrong now that i built orx im getting the staic/dynamic link errors in codelite....

deamonboyx1

are there any special settings to the codelite workspace? because in there it compiles but it wont compile if i remake the workspace and add all the files

iarwain

Are you building the dynamic embedded versions?

deamonboyx1

ok got it working kinda... it wont actually make a .exe for some reason

deamonboyx1

to be perfectly honest im about to just give up because its not making any logical sense

iarwain

Mmh, I'd need more details of what works and what doesn't in order to thelp you.

I just synced the svn and built win32 versions with codelite (win32 embedded dynamic debug/profile/release).

I got the link and runtime libraries in orx/code/lib/dynamic.
I got the launcher in orx/code/bin as well as the runtime libraries (copied from orx/code/lib/dynamic). If I run orx/code/bin/orx.exe I get my playground (4 platforms and bouncing balls/texts spawned with left click, right click adds a wobble effect on the object under the cursor and middle click toggles a simple custom shader).

Did you get all this on your side or is there something missing?

iarwain

In more details, here are the files that are built when you compile the 3 versions mentioned above with codelite:

In orx/code/lib/dynamic:
liborx.a
liborxd.a
liborxp.a
orx.dll
orxd.dll
orxp.dll

In orx/code/bin:
orx.exe
orxd.exe
orxp.exe
orx.dll
orxd.dll
orxp.dll

The .a/.dll files are the only things you need (in addition to the .h include files).
For your own project, you simply need to set the link path to orx/code/lib/dynamic and the include path to orx/code/include.
You also need to copy the .dll files to where your own project's exe is compiled in order to run it.

For the debug version of your project, you need to specify __orxDEBUG__ as a preprocessor define and for the profile version (if you want one), you need to define __orxPROFILE__.

I think that sums up everything.

iarwain

Also, just to make sure, you're using gcc 4.5.0, isn't it?

If you're using an older version you'll need to recompile the external dependencies (only GLFW, Box2D, libsndfile, OpenAL-Soft and SOIL). They're all located in orx/extern and have either the native project files or project files I created for codelite when none were provided by the original authors.

My guess is that you don't want to go down that road but use a newer version of gcc instead.

deamonboyx1

no the sandbox bit works fine but when i try to make a new project and use tutorial 10 as a base it runs fine but will not generate a exe yet when i hit run from withing codelite it runs i assume its me screwing something up in codelite

iarwain

If it runs from codelite, the exe has been generated.
Maybe it's a path/name issue and you're not looking for what was actually created by codelite?

EDIT: I have to go run an errand and won't be there for a couple of hours. Hopefully you'll find your issue soon enough.
