#13 CVS Compilation Errors - uwadv fails to build

[Andrew Burton]

The following files have compilation errors in CVS
(downloaded 15/7/06):

source/base/savegame.cpp
Undefined reference to errno
Fixed by adding #include "errno.h" to includes

source/audio/vocfile.cpp
Undefined reference to SDL_ objects
Fixed by adding #include "SDL.h" to includes

source/underw/inventory.cpp
Many missing references; fixed some by changing
INCLUDES = line in source/underw/Makefile.am to
INCLUDES = -I$(srcdir)/../base -I$(srcdir)/../script -I
$(srcdir)/../renderer

However, source/underw/inventory.cpp contains a number
of other undefined references to header files, etc.

uwadv cannot be built from CVS.

I second that.

XMidiEventList.h needed

include <cstdlib></cstdlib>

For modern system,s vocfile.cpp needed

include <sdl sdl.h=""></sdl>

But then I got this:

midi/XMidiFile.cpp:447:73: error: cast from 'char' to 'uintptr {aka unsigned int}' loses precision [-fpermissive]
#define system_mem_offset(setting) ((uintptr)(&((systemArea)0)->setting))

Makefile:462: recipe for target 'XMidiFile.lo' failed

No idea how to fix that.

I'm closing this ticket, as it's easy to compile uwadv with Visual Studio 2019 now. I might restore mingw compilation at a later point. The errors in the midi files should be gone by now. Thanks for reporting!
