how to compile crystalblend ?

[Erwin Coumans]

What steps do we need to do to get crystal blend to compile ? Sorry, I lack time to search for and read all the manuals.

1- cvs check out crystalblend
2- get latest crystal space, unzip so the location become c:\develop\CS
3- get latest cel, unzip so location become c:\develop\CEL
4- set environment variables CRYSTAL=c:\develop\CS
5- set environment variable CEL=c:\develop\CEL

6- open up the crystalblend.sln,
compile
get all the compile errors (see below).

So how do we exactly compile crystalblend ?
There is already grpall_crystalblend,grpapps_crystalblend,grplibs_crystalblend,grpplugins_crystalblend. All empty, with an empty 'references'

Do we need to compile crystal and cel ourselves ? Or can the crystalblend solution include the necessary projects ?
I would expect it to compile out of the box with all those environment variables.

Well you must first compile Crystal Space and then CEL. But before compiling Crystal Space you should download and install the cs_winlibs package from this location: http://crystalspace3d.org/support/win32/cs-win32libs-0.99r0_013.exe

A few other helpful things. First the direct link to the page about how to compile CS with MSVC: http://crystalspace3d.org/docs/online/manual/cs_2.5.2.2.php#2.5.2.2.

In summary: first install the cs-win32libs package (version 13), Then load the workspace CS\mk\msvc\wkstypical.sln in MSVC.Then Build -> Build Solution.

Greetings,

[erwin]

mmm, I did install cs-win32libs. Perhaps executing VCsupport.exe was required. or a reboot.
I'll try again later.

Thanks,
Erwin

Just curious, all plugins seem to depend on zlib.lib. Why do they all need their own copy of the compression lib ? Can't that be shared ?

almost there. just a few ode link errors:

Hmm... that's strange? Exactly from what date is your download of CS? And you are using version 013 of the cs-winlibs?

Greetings,

[erwin]

>Hmm... that's strange? Exactly from what date is your download of CS? And you are using version 013 of the cs-winlibs?

the version.txt in crystal_extern tells:
0.99r0_011

So I might have an old version. The link error is just in that ode tutorial, one of the most interesting one for me, when I want to look into adding bullet support

Ok, in that case you need the 013 version.
