Hi!

is there another compiler i can use instead of msvc to compile the jedi academy sdk???

If you want to compile for Linux you can just use gcc. However there are some quake tuts that show how to compile the quake sdk with free compilers. Check those out on google and try to apply those to ja sdk. Someone here probably knows much more about this than I do.

Someone on the forum here or maybe the ojp lucasforums forum said you can compile it with the new free "express" version of microsoft's ide, if what you're worried about is the money.

gcc works for windows too.

Tinny · 07-14-2006, 06:25 PM

Is there a gcc for windows or does it only run on linux but make windows dlls?

Maybe he means via Cygwin? http://www.cygwin.com/

when gcc is ported to a platform (such as windows) it's a relyable compiler for that platform

ever used dev-c++? no need for cygwin which is poc imo. you could also use msys.

I have dev-c++ but haven't used it. I use msvc cause it's easy one-stop-shopping for my JKA stuff and I'm lazy, though speaking of poc's... It's the only software I have that brings down windows just by running for awhile, to the point where I have to reboot like I'm running windowsME or something.

Well waddyaknow I looked in devcpp folder and there was gcc in the bins. Thanks for the msys tip too.

no problem.

i tried devcpp and it works great but i dont know how to set it upp to compile the sdk!! i converted the sln to dsp and imported the proj but when i came to compiling it it stops after 5 seconds giving me alot of warnings and errors! dose anyone know how to set devc up properly for compilation??

thanks in advance!

dev-c++ does the projects only, not solutions.

dev-c++ can cross compile to Linux on a Windows system?

stubert · 07-18-2006, 11:31 PM

you need cygwin on windows to compile for linux and wine on linux to compile for windows

or wine on windows to compile for linux

nobody asked about cross-compiling, but you can use cygwin or msys for that if u have all the right gcc stuff.

btw just converting it wont do for dev-c++. there are some dev files in my proj that dumbledore has but i don't really use them for ensimod and they have tons of extra stuff nor do i know some of the correct things that are needed.
