[HELP] compiling ZDoom problems....

Post by kevingpo »

I am trying to get ZDoom compiled under Dev-C++. I imported the MSVC++ project. Also I got myself the sound & openPTC source files.

I get lots of errors in the dehacked.cpp file. I get hundreds of invalid conversion and it points to the massive list of function pointers.

How can I get around this?

Has someone got ZDoom compiled under Dev-C++ before?

Looks like you try to compile ZDoom v1.22 under gcc 3.2.x. You won't get around those function pointer errors. ZDoom v2 has it fixed and includes a DevC project file ready to use.

Wait, I thought that the 1.22 is currently the latest available. Is the 2.0.xx source out?

Geez, I'm such an idiot - they're all in the same directory as the executables!

Now I'm having a problem. What do I need to use the .diff files to update the source?

"patch". Preinstalled under Linux; Windows version at gnuwin32.sf.net, Packages/Download, get diffutils,patch,libiconv,libintl. Already discussed in another thread :idea:

Sorry for being new. But what do we do with these 4 tools in windows? We can't find the other thread.

At least instructions for setup should be on the homepage..

Right, when randy stores stuff on the Holy Online Drive (afaik he's still
on 56k *too*) and well. A .diff file is,as it says only the difference between
two files or directories.

/zdoom$ diff -Ndru 2.0.46 2.0.47 >46-to-47.diff

that's usually the way they get created. Now, suppose there is only 46.cab
and 46-to-47.diff, what you do is uncompress 46.cab so that you have the
2.0.46 directory and then call

/zdoom$ patch -p0 <46-to-47.diff

Will patch something (depends on what 's in 46-to-47.diff ;)
In our case it would transform the 2.0.46 directory in a 2.0.47 one.
Hope that helps.

EDIT: That makes two tools, "diff" (in package diffutils.zip) and "patch"
(in patch.zip). The other two are libraries and are required by patch/diff.
