Build Problems with Master (QT)

[NRoach44]

Basically I need to know what packages I would need to install that

Code: Select all

apt-get build-dep warzone2100

wont. Specifically What is the package name for the required QT4?

[NRoach44]

All good now, The package I was missing was libqt4-dev.

Ok, New Problem, When building for windows, I get the following:

Code: Select all

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/nroach44/built/wz2100master/20110320/win32/libs/theora'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nroach44/built/wz2100master/20110320/win32/libs/theora'
make -C qt4 TOPDIR=../.. -w --jobserver-fds=3,4 -j -- DOWNLOADS=/home/nroach44/built/wz2100master/20110320/win32/downloads HOST_TRIPLET=i586-mingw32msvc all
make: Entering an unknown directory
make: *** qt4: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: Leaving an unknown directory
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `/home/nroach44/built/wz2100master/20110320/win32/libs'

AFAIK Those folders exist.

Also, congrats on the new renderer. Also, when you get fullscreen working, does that mean I can Use my volume controls again?

You need to compile qt4 for windows...or set the path to it.

[NRoach44]

Aha, where can I find instructions to do that and put it in the right folder?

We're using the following for building Warzone for windows:

Ummm yeah.... I'm hopeless with that..
Could I just use a QT dll from another application (OPHCrack) and reference that?

I suppose you could get it to use DLL's (I'm not sure how).

Though I wouldn't just use the dll's from another app especially when you could get the correct version dlls from the qt site.

[NRoach44]

Okay, where could I get them (this would have been much easier to know earlier) And what do I do with them?

If you are going to compile WZ, you still need the header files, not just the DLLs.

[NRoach44]

Again, where do I get them, and what (in moderately simple terms) do I do with them?

Hmm ?
You pull down Qt, and all the Qt dev related stuff. Same as with any other lib you are using.

Oaky, lets start again, I can build master for Ubuntu, but not for windows as I Don't know how to get QT compiling for windows, what exactly do I have to do?

Get on Qt's site, get their build system for windows.
As for using mingw on windows, we don't have anyone who does that AFAIK. No idea if that still works or not.

I think he meant mingw on ubuntu for windows.
Anyways, you could either adapt this (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/mingw- ... /src/qt.mk) to our old build system, or just use mingw-cross-env (link already posted.)

I did use mingw on windows before qt was merged, it was painfully slow because of the configure step.
