Please try building from CVS!

SDL Development
1

I’ve made a bunch of changes to the way SDL is built, and I’m sure things
need to be adjusted for the various platforms.

If you get a chance, can you build SDL from CVS and post your results on
this list, along with the OS and compiler version you’re using?

http://www.libsdl.org/cvs/SDL-1.2.tar.gz
http://www.libsdl.org/cvs/SDL-1.2.zip

You may want to take a look at include/SDL_config.h and include/SDL_config.h.in if you having problems, or curious to see what’s going on.

Thanks!

Visual C++ 6.0 build is broken (VC5 too, most likely). My platform in
question is: Win2k, VS6+SP5, Platform SDK.
"Cannot open include file: ‘crtdefs.h’: No such file or directory"
Evidently, the crtdefs.h does not exist in VC6 and Platform SDK. And you
should not really attempt to include the CRT headers directly, especially if
the goal is to make it buildable without the CRT. You should probably
include stddef.h instead for size_t definition.

Also, the VC6 build process would not build a real SDL_config.h and the
stock one in include/ is quite lacking. Including a pre-built SDL_config.h
for MS compilers is probably a good idea, though I do not know how you would
want to manage the whole MS CRT vs. No CRT business in this case.

…\include\SDL_thread.h(74) : error C2143: syntax error : missing

VC6 does not have uintptr_t defined anywhere.

SDL_dx5events.c

Something is not brining in the definition of size_t somehow before the
directx headers are included. Perhaps SDL_dx5events.c is missing an
SDL_types.h include.

G:\SDL-12-CVS\src\video\math_private.h(171) : error C4226:

Evidently, VC6 does not like ‘huge’ being used as an identifier.

The library builds (with a Q’n’D fix for a x11/dga build error) on
sparc-sun-solaris2.9 using gcc 4.0, but configuring in test directory
fails with missing SDL_revcpyOn Tue, 7 Feb 2006, Sam Lantinga wrote:

Hi,

Building with Compaq C on Tru64 is successful if applying this patch.
See Bugzilla #136.

HAVE_STRTOD isn’t defined in include/SDL_config.h though Tru64 has strtod.
It is because strtod isn’t checked in configure, I think.–

I always build SDL in a different directory from the sources.

Forget that, it was my fault. SDL was using $(srcdir)/include/SDL_config.h instead of generated $(builddir)/include/SDL_config.h
A simple fix would be to have the builddir include directory listed before the source include directory.

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

The SDL-1.2.9 install gives no such errors. The link line for 1.2.9
is the same as above, modulo different .o files, but also includes a
-lstdc++ reference.

The following was run by the 1.2.9 configure script:

Copying ./src/thread/generic/SDL_syscond.c -> src/thread/SDL_syscond.c

while the CVS version did

Copying ./src/thread/linux/SDL_syscond.c -> src/thread/SDL_syscond.c

which seems a significant difference.

oops … comes from using email ref instead of reading website

Builds with no errors Ubuntu Breezy Linux, AMD64 processor, gcc 4.0.
A couple of the tests seems to work flawlessly (couldn’t find
a make target to run them all though, is there one?)On Thu, 2006-02-09 at 05:36 +1100, skaller wrote:

I’ve made a bunch of changes to the way SDL is built, and I’m sure things
need to be adjusted for the various platforms.

You may want to take a look at include/SDL_config.h and include/SDL_config.h.in if you having problems, or curious to see what’s going on.

I’ll compile it with everything I have tomorrow when I get home from the
office (it’ll be too late when I get out of here tonight).
