vaultmp - Compiling in Code Blocks

[Langerz82]

Hello,

I'm receiving the following error wondering if you have any idea how to fix.

See:

This happens if the C++ standard library that comes with your MinGW does not include thread support. Check this answer:

I also mentioned it in the instructions: https://github.com/foxtacles/vaultmp#compilation

Thanks I fixed the error, will let you know how it goes.

Hello,
These are the new errors I'm getting:

[Langerz82]

I've sorted out the threading issues, turns out I wasnt using POSIX threads in my MinGW.

Now I can compile as far as this:

[foxtacles]

which GCC version are you using? probably something changed in a newer version, leading to issues like that. maybe you can get a mingw64 including GCC 4.9 - otherwise the current code would probably need to be adjusted (not sure how much effort this would be, I have no mingw setup to try atm)

[Langerz82]

Ok I dowloaded and used GCC 5.4 as thats the closest I could find. It's throwing these errors:

Looks like it's compiling in 64-bit mode, any ideas?

[Langerz82]

I changed the makefile to run the 32-bit g++ and Ive resolved the previous issue. Let you know how it goes.

Hey Chris I'm having trouble with the ini parser I compiled it in linux then copied the files .a and .so.0 files into MinGW's 32-bit lib folder but its not linking either by using -liniiparser or -l:libiniparser.a . How can I compile it under Codeblocks and MinGW? Setting up a standard static library did not work.

[foxtacles]

https://github.com/foxtacles/vaultmp/tree/master/source/lib there are C::B project files and makefiles for iniparser and time libraries, did you try them to compile them on Windows?

[Langerz82]

Hey, I needed to create my own makefile for the ini parser which I based off the raknet makefile.
Am I missing any flags? I checked verbose linking and it says that it skipped it because it was incompatible and hence the library not being found.
Here is the adjusted makefile for windows:

https://github.com/foxtacles/vaultmp/blob/master/source/lib/iniparser_makefile.windows this one didn't work?

maybe you are missing -m32 in the CC var

[Langerz82]

It still does not get loaded when linking, both with and without -m32, any ideas?

[Langerz82]

Think I know the issue. The command is running 64-bit ld.exe as shown here:
D:/Program Files/mingw-w64/x86_64-5.4.0-release-posix-sjlj-rt/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/5.4.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: skipping incompatible D:/Program Files/mingw-w64/x86_64-5.4.0-release-posix-sjlj-rt/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/5.4.0/../../..\libiniparser.a when searching for -l:libiniparser.a
Just gotta find a 32-bit ld.exe

[Langerz82]

Its finding the libraries yet it keeps searching and throws errors as if it can't find them. I'm stuck on this:

[Langerz82]

Managed to find the Raknet library by removing the -m32 flags when compiling. Now I got the following errors with stack_trace.
