Demos compilation

JC — 2012-04-29T17:17:16

Hello,

I compiled agar 1.4.1 on Windows XP system, following this procedure http://wiki.libagar.org/wiki/Install/Windows_%28MSYS%29. All executed successfully.

But now I try to compile the demos, when I execute "./configure" in the "demos" directory in the MinGW shell I get the followings :

checking whether FreeType works...yes
checking for Agar (http://libagar.org/)...yes (1.4.1)
checking whether Agar works...no
*
* This software requires agar installed on your system.
*
configure failed!
*
* If the previous test failed due to Agar not being found,
* make sure you have already installed Agar on your system
* and that the agar-config binary is in your PATH.
*
* To install Agar, go to the top-level directory and run:
*     make all install
*
make: *** [configure] Error 1

Of course, I tried to go to the top-level directory to run "make all install".

If I try "./configure" in the "themes" subproject I get a config.log file with this error :
checking for Agar (http://libagar...org/)...yes (1.4.1)

msys with mingw turned out to be the easiest way for us.

sdlfb missing redraws and other bugs

Robin Haberkorn — 2012-01-10T22:26:16

Hi!

It seems that Agar 1.4.1 and Agar trunk have some very peculiar bugs when
using the sdlfb-driver.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and XUbuntu 11.10 (so it's SDL under X).

Moving Agar windows is invisible. You don't see the window being moved but
it did move. A patch (based on Agar 1.4.1) setting the dirty-flag on a
window that is moved is attached.
Also, resizing the "display" (the SDL X-window) results in a blank
screen/X-window (it is not redrawn). I've attached a patch for this as
well (it sets the window dirty-flag on all windows when the display
is resized).

I wonder if I'm missing something obvious here, since I couldn't find any
such reports in the mailing list or bug tracker. These bugs are
easily reproduced using any Agar program running under sdlfb. At least
on my systems...

When we're at it. Some other random notes about Agar:
 * I had to update the ./configure using the latest BSDBuild
   since the BSDBuild perl scripts used to generate ./configure
   were outdated, resulting in false-negative .

I added your suggestion to ./configure and it built fine.

Thank you!

I added "--with-catman=no" to "./configure" as I notice this error
happened only with catman. It works and does not seem to bring more
problems, but can't tell you why this error happens.

You may want to see the script (called "PKGBUILD") I made to build and
package agar for Archlinux:

I have managed to make progress following Rafael and Julien's thread "Build fail
on Archlinux" and have completed the make step.

However, I now get to the same error:

install -c -m 644 AG_Execute.3 /usr/local/man/man3
install -c -m 644  /usr/local/man/cat3
install: cannot stat `\177': No such file or directory
install-manpages.sh failed
make[1]: *** [install-man] Error 1

I have tried using make install with "SH=dash", as well as trying to make from
other shells.

Can you provide a bit more detail on how to clear this error?

Thanks Michael

Thanks for the useful informations, Julien. Just for the record, I
made available an agar package for Archlinux users [1] and it seems
someone already uploaded package for agar-svn [2].

Hi Rafael,

Agar's configure looks for a working "-lGL". The configure script
tries to find it using pkg-config and reverts to scanning predefined
directories if unavailable.

Mentions of "sdlgl" in the Agar documentation refer to an Agar display
driver called "sdlgl" (for GL rendering via SDL), documented here:
http://libagar.org/man3/AG_DriverSDLGL. It is not related to the sdlgl
project on SourceForge.

Great, thanks a lot!

Last, I have a doubt and then you leave the rest for possible bug
reports: What package provide the OpenGL required by Agar's
.../configure?

1. sdlgl [1], name mentioned in libagar's wiki [2]

2. Glew [3] [4]

3. 'libGL.1.so' lib from drivers, for example, mesa [5]

Re: Build fail on Archlinux

Julien Nadeau — 2011-09-17T23:11:25

That looks fine to me.


Yes, that is correct. Since Agar apps use #include <agar/foo.h>, having
the includes in <prefix>/include/agar/agar allows `agar-config --cflags`
to output "-I/usr/include/agar" as opposed to "-I/usr/include" which may
not be desirable.

Re: Build fail on Archlinux

rafael ff1 — 2011-09-17T16:01:43

Well, I was able to make the installation work by setting
"--with-catman=no" in ./configure line... Is it bad to set this
command? I've got these files from installation:
http://pastebin.com/gxMr31jp

By the way, is it correct to have includes installed in
'/usr/includes/agar/agar', instead of just '/usr/includes/agar' ? This
seems to happen with svn sources too.

Re: Build fail on Archlinux

Julien Nadeau — 2011-09-17T00:15:05

That one is due to a bug in bash (which I assume you have installed
under /bin/sh). There is a work around in svn, but I don't remember
where it was exactly. You can also set the SH environment variable
to an alternate shell when invoking make.

Great, this solved the compilation problem. But I came through another
problem during the installation:

* command line:
make  DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" MANDIR=/usr/share/man LIBDIR=/usr/lib/agar install

(where "pkgdir" is the fakeroot for installing files)

* error message output:

Re: Build fail on Archlinux

Julien Nadeau — 2011-09-16T23:21:26

Hi Rafael,

The problem is due to gcc's new "-Wunused-but-set-variable" which
causes configure tests to fail. As a work around you can use:

    env CFLAGS="-O2 -Wno-unused-but-set-variable" ./configure ...

Or you can build from current svn sources which includes a fix.

AGAR Build

MAP — 2011-09-06T21:01:09

I am trying to do a clean build of agar 1.4.1 on a new fedora 15 build.
The kernel is 2.6.40.3-0.fc15.x86_64 and gcc version is 4.6.0.

Make fails with several errors, and the config.log has the following:

conftest.c: In function ‘main’:
conftest.c:5:9: error: variable ‘d’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set ]
conftest.c:4:8: error: variable ‘f’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set ]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Make, it you continue, reports the following:
In file included from core.h:12:0,
                 from variable.c:26:
/home/MAP/Downloads/agar-1.4.1/include/agar/core/types.h:103:16: warning:

Can you point me in the right direction for fixing this?

unable to cross-compile agar

haithem rahmani — 2011-09-03T20:28:08

Hi,
I'm trying to cross compile agar here what I did:

$> ./configure --host=sh4-linux-

the script detect the cross-compiler but fails to point to the correct
include files and libs

it is using the ''/usr/include'' but it should point to
''/opt/STM/STLinux-2.4/devkit/sh4/target/usr/include''

any idea how to fix this ?

Re: 64 Bit Install

Julien Nadeau — 2011-07-30T02:53:33

On Linux, just running "ldconfig" after the installation should make
the library visible, no need to specify an alternate --libdir.

I am installing AGAR 1.4.1 on linux 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64, using configure, make,
make install.  Which appears to compile just fine.

I have configured with the option --libdir=-L/usr/lib64 (and several variants
there of) yet the library libag_gui.so.4 file still appears to be built in
/usr/local/lib.

This appears to result in the following when executing the demos:

../minimal: error while loading shared libraries: libag_gui.so.4: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory.

Can someone tell me how to get the libraries built and installed in the "proper"
x64 locations.  Or am I completely missing an issue here?

Thanks, MAP

Compiling Agar natively on Windows mingw, revisited

Reinoud Zandijk — 2011-07-27T10:24:22

Hi folks,

i've managed to get Agar to build natively on mingw and i posted the patches
to the Agar repository. In short, you can build it now in one of the
Agar/Packages/mingw* directories. Main issue was that it now stops processing
the header files but links them.

Issues still around:

*pthreads compile but don't work! And that sucks i have to agree but Agar
itself is working fine. The one library that it needs for nice graphics is
freetype that you have to install first.

* you need to add -lwinmm to your program to link correctly for windows time
functions

* you need to add -lglu32 if you use glu calls

Thats all folks,

Reinoud
