Can someone check if the code is compatible with the latest version of the mingw compiler ?

When compiling with the latest version of mingw develop studio i got the following errors in SDLnetUDP.c :

Can someone check if the code is compatible with the latest version of the
mingw compiler ?

When compiling with the latest version of mingw develop studio i got the
following errors in SDLnetUDP.c :--------------------

i ave MinGW-3.0.0-rc4
gcc-core-3.3.1-20030804-1
SDL 1.2.5

and no error in compile time …

you use the procedure:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

???

you have installed the package win3api ? (it’s contained within the pakage
complete of the mingw)

see you

-CLEANUP

i ave MinGW-3.0.0-rc4
gcc-core-3.3.1-20030804-1
SDL 1.2.5

and no error in compile time …

You won’t get the error with the stand-alone mingw compiler (forgot to
mention that soz). You will get them however
with mingw developer studio full install (which has a mingw compiler
included). The errors are some simple syntaxis errors
and are easy to fix which i have done,… just though i’d let you guys know
that it does not compile without problems
for the mingw developer studio IDE.

you use the procedure:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

Mingw Developer studio is an IDE, so i’ts all point and click work :slight_smile:

I uploaded the files to my webserver.

The modified SDL_Net code:
Added some casts and changed a struct in SDLnetUDP.c

My modified NET2 version: (may not be usefull to others anymore since i
modified some behaviour)
