Dolphin SVN Compiling Discussion

[Xtreme2damax]

Thanks, I thought there might of been a way to get the required headers/libraries and compile it under VS Express.

By your reply it sounds like there's more to it than just that.

Some of us don't have the money to purchase mega expensive Microsoft Products.

afiak, svn builds are for people interested in the actual _coding_. therefor, they already have/know what's required. so if you don't fall into that category, just lurk for binaries.

ector, or anyone else on the dev team, would there be any logical explanation why a successful build on VS2005 would run slower than it would with VS2008?, myself and Daco have been providing binaries from the SVN builds for the past few days and it's been reported many times that daco's release, why the menu messes up, are indeed a little bit faster?
to my knowledge we're using the exact same directX SDK, and compiling the exact same SVN builds, so why there is a speed difference i could only imagine being something to do with the compiler..

But that in itself makes no sense at all..

Side note : svn r31 isn't compilable, GPUDirect3D9.cpp and Gpuopengl.cpp are missing

[ector]

I don't know, maybe VS2008 really is better than VS2005? :-)

We are thinking of switching. It won't happen really soon though, we're probably talking months for various reasons.

And yes, the svn has been fixed now.

(btw, you do know that with tortoisesvn, you can easily grab any past version).

Yup, but posting binaries for frequent builds already seems moot enough without posting previous builds

If possible, i'd like to request a few changes to be made in future versions?, just to save myself or daco doing them, just three.

1) correction of 'instable!' to 'Unstable!' in frame.cpp, line 229
2) inclusion of revision number on main window, main.cpp line 90 (i simply change _T("Dolphin"), to _T("Dolphin R33"), - purely for the sake of error reporting to make sure people are reporting about the correct builds.
3) inclusion of the icon in the installer dir, on the executable itself

Not that i want to offend you with requesting these changes, just some things i'd rather were already done! (yes yes i realize 1 is more grammar nazi than erro xD)

ive never been any good of a coder but wouldn't it be better to have

char Revnumber = "rev33"
_T("Dolphin %s",Revnumber);
unless you can't use var's there...

Nah, we need an automated solution. Nobody's going to remember to update that thing... I'm looking into it.

the only thing i can think of for an automated way is checking online lol.

Both video plugins aren't compiling on r36 (VS2008), are more people experiencing this? It seems that it can't link the files in the VideoCommon directory. It's also missing svnrev.h on the main Dolphin project

Rebuild the Common project to generate SVN version number file (svnrev.h)

[woutf]

Tried that, doesn't seem to make a difference.

The files needed for the GFX plugins are all there in the VideoCommon dir. The svnrev.h file is nowhere to be found though, even after rebuilding the Common project.

Do an SVN update, and don't use the VS2008 project files, they are not up to date right now.

it ends up in \Source\Core\Common\Src

Ok, that explains it. I'll just wait then, seeing I don't own VS2005 and converting the 2005 project doesn't work either. Thanks for the info!

Error	1	error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Performing Pre-Build Event..."	Common

happens on both VS2005 & VS2008...
i did some research, its from doing the SubWCRev.exe line

------ Build started: Project: Common, Configuration: Release Win32 ------
Performing Pre-Build Event...
'c:\Documents' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Project : error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Performing Pre-Build Event..."

now the question remains, is that from trying to run SubWCRev.exe or is that from the other directories...


it works now:
im now using
"$(ProjectDir)SubWCRev.exe" "$(SolutionDir)\." "$(ProjectDir)src\svnrev_template.h" "$(ProjectDir)src\svnrev.h"
instead of
$(ProjectDir)SubWCRev.exe $(SolutionDir) $(ProjectDir)\src\svnrev_template.h $(ProjectDir)\src\svnrev.h

Weird. I would try:

* Load the 2005 projects
* Build->Rebuild All

[shuffle2]

yeah if there is ever a problem for me, i delete all the .vcproj files, get latest from svn, then convert dolphin.sln to vs2008 (which also converts all the projects in the solution). Then do rebuild all.

I simply cannot build with the x64 settings. When I try to open project properties it says Unspecified Error, and when I try to build the projects are just skipped.

It seems only my solution settings are x64, but none of my projects can go x64

(MSVC++ 2008)

Got it working, forgot to install x64 compliers in the set up.

E:\C++\Dolphin\Source\Core\DebuggerWX\src\Breakpoi ntWindow.cpp

OpenGL MSVC++ 2008 is also mission some files, skipping that build for now...

Got my first successful build, revision 38

If anyone knows how the X360 controls are mapped (pluginspecs_pad.h line 27 maybe), could they fill me in on how Button # becomes hex? 0x0400 = Button 0? How does that work? I plan to update the plugin so that the controls can be customizable.

Great job!
