*fixed* Problem compiling in Cygwin (free-windows)

[Mel_Q]

gcc stops dead in its tracks right around buttons.c on the latest
checkout of bf-blender. Both Tuhopuu (current) and a week old
copy of bf-blender 2.27 compile- it's just the latest bf-blender driving
me nuts. Since I can still compile the 'older' blender, I suspect a
misplaced file or a script typo. It's 1207am here, so I'm going to
sleep some so I can make better sense of things and bring back more
relevant info. In the mean time, it would be nice if someone could
attempt to duplicate the problem (w98se, cygwin gcc in freewin-env).

I didn't do a checkout tonight (doh! ), so if it exists and was fixed, I apologize
for wasting anyone's time....must sleep...zz.zzz

i can't reproduce the problem with the latest cvs version.
i don't have w98 here. just W2k and WXP...
could you please post the error message from gcc?

[Mel_Q]

It figures. Apparantly the checkout last night fixed the problem-
it now compiles 'normally'. Serves me right for not using last night's checkout huh ?
Thanks for the help though -
I shamefully repeat the above apology, and sentence myself to take a
break for the weekend

Straight into the build, was working but now it isnt, any ideas?

[Mel_Q]

leinad13-
No idea on that one- Double check your cygwin install and check that all environment variables are where they needed; or not needed- the only way I got python to cooperate on my machine was to uninstall the 2.2 version I already had and use the one that comes with cygwin. Those more experienced with python and makefiles probably wouldn't need to do something so drastic, but I've used windoze too long (bad habit).

One of the times I had a Tuhopuu build fail, I'd forgot to put the 'lib' directory in the 'blender' directory . This stuff makes me feel so old! This is a long long way from 8bit assembly language...

etc

What is this %USERPROFILE% weirdness?
I think that is screwing you up ... try
compiling somewhere with a less
error-prone directory name.

[Mel_Q]

Perhaps cygwin was installed under a different windows user name than is currently being used?...

[leinad13]

Hmm, yes i moved my source directory and it has now got past the error from before, don't know whether it will complete or not. For some reason, when i opened up cygwin it defaulted to "/bin/%USERPROFILE%/", so when i did a CVS download it went in there, i moved it to my just "/" directory and hopefully it will complete ok. I let you know if if it does later.

It was going so well, then i got a windows message saying makesdna had crashed, and i had this message in cygwin.

Code: Select all

I'll do a CVS update and try again, might just have been windows randomly crashing, but if not, then i need help again.

:Edit: Nope tried again and got the same error, any ideas?

[_florian_]

hi

the message looks to me like you forgot to set "source free_windows-env". happens to me all the time

florian

[leinad13]

Nope, wasnt that, i checked that i tried again and got the same, makedns is crashing whatever that is. Blender frustrates me, nop wonder we havnt got hardly any developers, its damn imposible to compile.

[Hos]

I think I've found the problem ... please update
source/blender/makesdna/intern/Makefile from
cvs and try again.

Chris

[leinad13]

Sorry hos, still got an error, but i not getting makedns.exe crash .

Sorry for being a pain Hos.

[Hos]

maybe try a 'make clean' and make again.

Chris

[leinad13]

Hmm strange, i always do, i tried again and still the same error, sorry Hos.

[Hos]

Does the file

tuhopuu/blender/obj//windows/blender/makesdna/debug/DNA.c

exist?

How about

tuhopuu/blender/obj//windows/blender/makesdna/debug/DNA.o?

Chris

P.S. Have you tried the bf-blender build at all?
