[Mingw-users] Buzz machines

[Valentin Z. <vzh...@bi...>]

Hello! I was wondering if there is a way to compile machines for the Buzz Tracker (www.buzzmachines.com) using Mingw? 
Has anybody ever done this?

After I compiled the example file "Distortion.cpp" into a DLL, I placed it in the proper folder and edited the index file for the 
Buzz machines. But when I try to load it into Buzz, i am getting the following message:

GetProcAddress(C:\PROGRAM FILES\JESKOLA BUZZ\Gear\Effects\Distortion.dll) failed.

and right after that Buzz crashes. 

Perhaps I haven't compiled the file in the proper manner (since I am a lamer - I just want to explore the way effects work and 
eventually twiddle with the provided ones.) Here is what I did:

gcc -c -DBUILD_DLL Distortion.cpp
dllwrap --output-lib=libtstdll.a --dllname=Distortion.dll --driver-name=gcc Distortion.o

Everything compiles just fine, no error messages or warnings appear.

The guide to compiling the sample machines says the following:

"Create the VC project:

Create new Win32 Dynamic-Link library project 
Set code generation settings to: 

Processor: Pentium 
Use Run-Time Library: Debug Multithreaded DLL (debug) and Multitheaded DLL (release) 
Calling convention: __fastcall 
Struct member alignment: 4 bytes"

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
