Spring RTS Engine

Posted: **05 Sep 2013, 09:40**

Hey guys, I've just setup Linux Mint 15 64bit (Cinnamon) in VirtualBox, and I want to use that to compile spring.
Linux Mint is quite similar to Ubuntu when it comes to installing packages.
This is a fresh install so most dev things still aren't installed or setup.
I've followed the guide on the wiki, but it doesn't compile.

The first problem was reported as missing BOOST_FILESYSTEM and BOOST_CHRONO (sorry, don't know the exact names), and that was remedied by installing libboost-filesystem-dev and libboost-chrono-dev, maybe those two should be added to the depenedencies list on the wiki?

The second problem were some compilation errros. I haven't fixed them yet.FIXED, config was corrupt, cleaned the cache and it worked again
I setup cmake with:

Code: Select all

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/spring-projects/installs/spring-dev-teams -G Ninja .

Output is:

It seems that the problem 1) was due to poorly done ./configure, clearing the cache and doing it again cleared the issue it would seem.

I have a new error though, and since thread is appropriate here it is:

Is this caused by an old boost library perhaps?
Mine is:

Code: Select all

Package: libboost-thread-dev             
Version: 1.49.0.1

Posted: **08 Sep 2013, 00:27**

(Feels like I'm talking to myself). Seems I'm right about the boost version: I can't find wait_for in the 1.49 docs that are in the 1.53 docs.

Posted: **08 Sep 2013, 00:42**

Wiki is wrong again it seems:
It states that one needs 1.35+ boost but from what i can see that method appears in the wiki from 1.50 at the earliest.
Also the ppa that has the new versions of the boost is quite outdated, this seems newer: https://launchpad.net/~boost-latest/+archive/ppa.

Trying it out right now and will post the results.

Posted: **08 Sep 2013, 02:42**

And to end this monologue

I've managed to set it up by using the 1.53 boost available in the ppa mentioned before. The process was as follows:

1) Add the ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:boost-latest/ppa
#open /etc/apt/sources.list.d/boost-latest-ppa-raring.list
#change raring to quantal on both lines
sudo apt-get update

2) Install the updated boost packages (no idea how to force it to use the 1.53 instead of the 1.49, so you need to put explicit package versions)
sudo apt-get install libboost-thread1.53-dev libboost-regex1.53-dev libboost-system1.53-dev libb-program-options1.53-dev libboost-signals1.53-dev libboost-filesystem1.53-dev libboost-chrono1.53-dev

reconfigure & compile as usual.
