Compilation

[aip]

Hi

I have compiled trunk in windows using VS 2008 Express Edt . Every thing went fine but when i run it shows some problems like, it shows background image but no menu item and suddenly it crashes after two or three clicks. I have installed required fonts also. I need some help i have to do this as early as possible so i can start for development.

Do you have a recent devkit?

[winsrp]

how did you manage to get trunk in vs 2008? can that be done? I would like to get my hands into it too

Yes sure i do.

What is so hard about compiling trunk? Works fine for me... Care to go into details?

Run --debug all, and post the stderr.txt file please.

It's a fontconfig issue...
Should be fixed *i hope* with the upcoming devpkg update.

Strange... Guess I will wait to see what you did to fix it, since I didn't have to do anything to that, that I recall.

Nothing special :-S
I've updated queso+fc and simply edited the fonts.conf file to include .\fonts dir
Magic

The new VC2k8 package for trunk was uploaded to gna.org. Do not forget to use the new 2k8 solution (Warzone2100.vs2k8.sln) file.

Um, you do know that if you compile with vs 2008 it becomes a .net piece of crap?

[Zarel]

Erm, no it doesn't. That's not how computers work.

[milo christiansen]

I thought that VS 2008 was a .net language?

I meant the EXE becomes a .net piece of crap, not the source.

[Zarel]

...erm, no. Visual Studio is a compiler, an IDE, and several other things, not a language. .NET is... among other things, a framework. A framework that Warzone doesn't use. Which means Visual Studio doesn't use it when compiling Warzone.

OK sorry I thought that all things compiled with VS 2008 got compiled to the common run-time language or whatever in the heck its called. That's what the help makes it sound like.
