Thanks Peterix, I'll use that and see if I can get it working later today.

Reinstalled mingw and cmake, had to add c:\mingw\bin\ to the path variable to get rid of the dll bug.  Thanks for cluing me in on that, had no idea what that was.

Looks like I'm not done though because g++.exe apparently isn't installed with mingw and it's needed for the build. I get the following output:

Gonna see if I can find out how I go about getting the g++.exe for MinGW...

[Makbeth]

*sigh*  So apparently MinGW doesn't work very well with Vista, with Cmake or any other similar program, in any version.  Tried some of the patches and workarounds that people have come up with but still no luck.

Dare I hope it works ok on Windows 7 or do I just need to install linux?  I'm having a new PC built for me (i7 980 hex core, yay!) and it should be done either today or early next week. 

REALLY looking forward to getting away from Vista anyway.  This PC and I started hating each other several months ago.  Fooled around with the beta for Windows 7 and it was a huge improvement.

[peterix]

Makbeth: I see no reason why should it fail that way, even with Vista. You just need to set the PATH for mingw32 right. Cmake can't find it.



Everyone:
I have some patches and code people contributed. This should be reviewed/merged over the weekend. Why not right now you may ask? Because I just did math for three days straight and now I'm going to play Fallout for a bit to clear my head

Is there any way to fix pathing errors caused by excessive use of DFliquids?

Cover the bad parts with 1/7 of magma, wait for evaporation.

I asked the question in chat before, but I figured it might be worth it to ask at large.

I am running a save of the many-z-levels game located at http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=43793.msg830218#msg830218  It's got several mods plugged in.  The save is on a 40d version.

Now, I wish to use df_magmacreate to create some magma, using DFhack 0.2.1.  Unfortunately, when I start the program, I get "Failure 2" and the program exits.

Has anybody else ever run into this?  Is there a way to make it work somehow?

[Makbeth]

Sorry to keep asking for help here but I really don't know what to do.  I just restarted with a fresh dfhack directory (plus modified dfliquids), fresh cmake, and fresh MinGW.  Some errors are gone now, others remain.

So now it seems to say that it's missing these files:

C:/Program Files/CMake 2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/Platform/Windows-g++.cmake
C:/Program Files/CMake 2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/Platform/Windows-gcc.cmake
C:/Program Files/CMake 2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/CMakeCXXInformation.cmake

The only one of those that's actually missing though is Windows-gcc.cmake.

Where can I find where to set CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER?  Is it in Cmakelists or do I need to do it through the CMake gui?

I'd add the windows-gcc.cmake file to the cmake directory, but everything you've said here and in the documentation suggests that I shouldn't have to.  I really wish I knew why this is not working out of the box when everything I read seems to say it should.  I added the recommended path variables and got errors.  I add more path variables and those errors go away.  I've now got path variables to every directory that's been referenced so far, and that well seems to have run dry.

[Makbeth]

It keeps looking for Windows-gcc.cmake.  There is none, but there is a Windows-GNU-C.cmake.  Would that work?  If so how do I get Cmake to use that instead?

Thanks for the help, I'll do that next time instead of save scumming ;_;

Actually, I play as a dwarf in every RPG where it's possible and I have beard ... and this forum lacks dwarf smiley faces with beer and axes and stuff

Makbeth:
Seriously, IDK. The output seems to indicate that you have only the C portion of the compiler and the C++ portion is missing.
Can you check some things?
run cmd.exe and put this in:

Code: [Select]

echo [%PATH%]Post the result.

Then look into MinGW's bin folder and check if g++.exe is there. If it's not, go and install it.

Shurikane:
Right. Ancient code. I'll go check what it means... DFHack changed quite a bit since then and nobody backported bugfixes. Now I know. It means there's no cursor. Hit 'k' and point at an empty tile before running the tool. I know it's not very friendly, but it's really, really old code.

As for g++.exe, it's not installed by the automated MinGW installer.  I found one in a user-made patch for MinGW 3.4.5, not sure if it works with the current version.  Not sure where else to get it.

Run the installer, it should be in the start menu. At least it did that back when I used MinGW.

[Makbeth]

No such luck, just the uninstaller for the MinGW-get tool, which also doesn't seem to be the installer, or at least doesn't do anything.

Anybody who uses MinGW know where to get a current g++.exe?
