My First Compile from SVN (linux)

[dannyman]

Hello,

I grabbed the trunk from tron and managed to compile.  Here are some notes for anyone else trying to compile with Linux (Ubuntu)

Code Select Expand

sudo aptitude install libz-dev libpng-dev libsdl-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev liballegro-dev

I set these in config.default:

Code Select Expand

BACKEND = mixer_sdl
COLOUR_DEPTH = 16

The 8bit was breaking compile.

I had to fix two typos in the source code to compile correctly.  After that, make did its thing and left me with a binary called sim which I can copy to my ~/simutrans directory to play the game.

Following is my svn diff, which I like to think reflects developers slaving away on the trunk:

And any time I want a fresh "nightly" I can:

Code Select Expand


cd ~/src/tron/simutrans/trunk
svn up
make && cp sim ~/simutrans


It looks like someone is in the middle of working on code now.  (There are some weird display issues in the factory info dialog.)  Danke! Danke!  Danke!

You need "liballegro-dev" ?

But you compile for "BACKEND = mixer_sdl"?

Yeah, the documentation says you need to include both sdl-mixer and allegro.  What compile options do you favor for Linux?

-d

Most likely you need allegro only if you also compile for the allegro backend. But it doesn't hurt to have both installed, SDL and Allegro.

You want to know how the nightlys are compiled??? ;o)

I like to think a cron job invokes a bash script, but experience tells me some pig's blood is also involved.  (I'm a SysAdmin by day.

In German:
"Herzliches Beileit Leidensgenosse"

The Script is "easy".
1) Check if SVN-Update, when yes then
2) Do SVN Update
3) new compile.default
4) Check if Compile, when not error
5) strip programm
6) READY.... ;o)

It makes only Problems, when you cross-compile ..... (for Windows/MAC)
